Edge Products
Edge offers six core cloud products: Compute, CDN, DNS, Storage, Shield and Assist. Together they provide everything you need to build, deploy, scale and protect applications on the edge of the network.
The Products
Compute
On-demand Linux virtual machines with full root access. Choose your OS, scale your resources, and deploy in seconds. From personal projects to production workloads, Compute gives you the power of the cloud without the complexity.
CDN
A global content delivery network that gets your assets closer to your audience than ever before. Integrated image transformation, real-time optimisation, and end-to-end TLS — all running on edge infrastructure.
DNS
Authoritative DNS with a worldwide anycast network. Sub-second propagation, built-in DDoS protection, geo-routing, and 100% uptime track record. Also home to test.network and ed.ge premium short domains.
Storage
S3-compatible object storage for files, media, backups and application data. Create buckets, upload via the dashboard or any S3-compatible tool (including the AWS CLI), and serve content directly or through CDN.
Shield
Free, privacy-first bot protection without puzzles. Every request gets a 1–100 humanity score, and you decide how to route humans, bots and AI agents — block them, serve them differently, or grant verified agents structured access. No CAPTCHAs for your users, no cookies, no tracking, and a drop-in migration path from Turnstile and reCAPTCHA. Free for everyone, including offline token verification for validating requests entirely within your own stack.
Assist
AI answers for any website, app, wiki or intranet — grounded in your own content. One line of code adds instant search and a chat assistant that streams cited answers from your indexed pages, with pinned facts and curated Q&As giving you the final word. Includes human handoff to turn conversations into support tickets, and the Examiner: an AI review of your content coverage. The first 250 answered questions per site per month are free.
Use Cases
Web Hosting
Run dynamic sites and applications on Compute with full control over your stack. For static sites, serve directly from Storage via CDN. Use DNS to manage your domains and route traffic intelligently.
Content Delivery
Accelerate your website or application by serving images, media and assets from the edge. CDN includes a full media pipeline for just-in-time image transformation — resize, crop, format conversion and compression — all via URL parameters.
Application Deployment
Deploy containerised workloads, APIs and microservices on Compute. Use startup scripts to automate provisioning with Docker, Node.js, Python, databases and more. Scale vertically as your needs grow.
Domain Management
Manage all your DNS records in one place with instant propagation. Use geo-routing to direct users to the nearest server, or grab a short .test.network or .ed.ge domain for your next project.
File Storage and Backup
Store and retrieve files using any S3-compatible client. Use Storage for application data, media libraries, backups, or as the origin for your CDN deployment.
Bot Protection
Protect signup forms, login flows, contact forms and APIs with Shield — no puzzles for legitimate users. Use the humanity score to make routing decisions in your own code: throttle suspicious traffic, serve AI agents a structured version of your content, or verify tokens offline without calling out to Edge at all.
Self-Serve Support
Answer visitor questions before they reach your inbox with Assist. Point it at your site's content index, embed the widget, and visitors get instant, cited answers to questions about your product, pricing and docs — with unanswered questions surfaced so you know exactly which content to write next.
