Introducing Edge Handlers in Preview

The Jamstack model has shifted the needs of content delivery networks (CDNs), requiring them to be fast, highly customizable, and up to date within a fraction of a second. Traditional static CDNs are insufficient to handle dynamic, personalized content, prompting Netlify to release Edge Handlers, which allows running code directly from the CDN. This feature enables full control over how content is served to end-users, enabling dynamic serving based on user permissions, language, or country. With Edge Handlers, users can augment their content with highly personalized data, such as COVID-19 cases in a specific area, by rewriting content based on incoming request headers. The release of Edge Handlers brings new possibilities to the CDN and pushes the boundaries of what is possible within a Jamstack model, offering developers inventive ways to create dynamic content.
