What happens when you build an ultra low-latency compute platform and then realize the round trips are going to kill you? Absent changing physics or your cap table: you partner!
This RedMonk Conversation explores how Fermyon - a platform that compiles serverless compute into Wasm - partnered with Akamai - a company that started out as a CDN and has evolved into a full-fledged alternative cloud - to build a better together story. Join RedMonk's Research Director Rachel Stephens, Fermyon CEO Matt Butcher, and Akamai's Director of Product Management Allen Duet to discuss the future of serverless computing at the edge.
This RedMonk video is sponsored by Akamai.
