We Rebuilt Our Node.js API for Edge Functions—Here’s What Actually Changed

1. 1Identify the need for edge functions based on user location and latency issues
2. 2Assess the current API architecture and identify potential bottlenecks
3. 3Rebuild the API using edge functions to reduce latency and improve performance
4. 4Monitor and optimize the new API architecture for continued improvement

This is relevant for software engineers and DevOps teams who need to optimize API performance for global users, as it can improve user experience and reduce latency

💡 Edge functions can significantly reduce latency for users in different regions by caching and processing requests closer to the user
