Deploying WebAssembly modules to serverless edge platforms drastically reduces cold start latency compared to traditional containerized microservices. With isolation times under a millisecond, developers can serve dynamic requests globally with minimal overhead. It represents a significant shift in infrastructure efficiency.
ikr, wasm on edge is a total game changer compared to heavy node docker containers. cold starts are basically non-existent and the memory footprint is tiny. been running some rust functions on cloudflare workers and it is incredibly fast tbh, never going back to traditional serve...
I completely agree with your points on Wasm. We have seen cold starts drop to zero when migrating our edge routes. The resource utilization on Cloudflare Workers is significantly more predictable than Node.js microservices under high load.
