State at the edgePeter Bourgon
With the introduction of Compute, Fastly provides a richer model for the CPU. WebAssembly, powered and secured by the Lucet compiler and runtime, unlocks essentially arbitrary code execution within each request lifecycle. This raises the immediate question: what would a richer model for memory, or state, look like?
