Edge computing guide
Edge prompt compression
Edge computing brings processing close to users. SuperCompress's tiny footprint (~200KB, no GPU) makes it ideal for edge deployment where resources are constrained.
Edge vs cloud compression
| Factor | Cloud Compression | Edge Compression |
|---|---|---|
| Latency | ~60ms + network | ~60ms only |
| Data locality | Data leaves region | Stays at edge |
| Cold start | ~300ms | ~5-50ms |
| Scaling | Auto-scale | Global distribution |
Frequently asked questions
What edge platforms support SuperCompress?
Cloudflare Workers (Python), Vercel Edge, AWS Lambda@Edge, and Fly.io.
Does edge compression reduce overall latency?
Yes. Compression at the edge avoids a round-trip to a central compression service.
