Global Edge Network
The Superblocks Edge Network helps you reduce latency and optimize performance no matter where your team or data centers are located.
With Superblocks, your Applications are cached close to your end-users while APIs are sent to regions close to your agents. You get best-in-class performance for your globally distributed team without the added maintenance and infrastructure costs typically associated with multi-region deployments.
Caching
The Superblocks Edge Network caches serve as a Content Distribution Network (CDN) for your Superblocks Applications and APIs. No set-up or configuration is required, Applications and APIs are cached out of the box for you.
When your Application is deployed a static build is automatically cached at the edge globally. Users load Applications from the edge node closest to them, reducing the time to initially load the app.
For On-Premise customers, API definitions are cached at the edge closest to your agent. If multiple agents are deployed in different regions, the agent will fetch the API from its nearest edge node.
By fetching Application and APIs at the edge, you can be sure that your Applications load as quickly as possible and APIs are executed efficiently no matter where your agents are deployed.
