on YouTube ↗10m

" summary

Edge compute moves request-time JavaScript onto the CDN to run logic before or around cache lookups, claiming reduced origin load and low latency. Examples include three years in production with video workloads, using CloudFlare Workers and Lambda@Edge, a one-line authorization flow that validates signed JWT URLs, cacheable key lookups, manifest templating and transmuxing with video.js. Several implemented patterns are shown and reported to work in production.
