Wasmer Edge + Database Latency

Observe the latency querying different data services from varying compute locations at the edge with Wasmer Edge. We built this playground to demonstrate different data access patterns and how they can impact latency through sequential data requests (i.e. waterfalls).

Data service

Location

Wasmer Edge applications run at the Edge. In Edge runtimes, multiple regions are supported (by default they're global, but it's possible to express a region preference via the region setting).

Waterfall

Executing complex API routes globally can be slow when the database is single-region, due to having multiple roundtrips to a single server that's distant from the user.

Samples

The number of samples to run for each location. A larger number of samples provides a clearer pattern of the average latency.
