Unleash the Power of Open Source WASM on a Hyper-Distributed Cloud - Colin Murphy, Adobe & Douglas Rodrigues, Akamai
Adobe has been an early adopter of WebAssembly and an extensive user of edge computing for many years. And we see the release of WASI 0.2 as a turning point in platform engineering. With Akamai and Cosmonic, we're making this platform a reality. We will demonstrate how Adobe I/O Runtime will be able to serve hundreds of customers while leveraging wasmCloud and Akamai in a way that is: Secure: Untrusted code is executed with minimal overhead Efficient: WebAssembly is very fast, simple to operate and runs on demand Integrated: Applications are seamlessly distributed across Adobe’s data centers and Akamai edge locations, combining the best of both worlds while avoiding manual orchestration between cloud providers and CDNs. Hosts automatically start up and join the lattice for minimum operational overhead. Polyglot: Multiple languages can be compiled to WebAssembly components. Furthermore, the component model allows Adobe I/O Runtime to provide access to Adobe APIs without SDKs
