Edjx offers beta of edge platform, adds $3M in funding

EDJX has announced the public beta launch of its flagship Edge Delivery Platform, a flexible, integrated bundle of services to help developers build smarter, faster applications, websites, APIs, and data pipelines by providing low-latency edge computing services on EDJX’s platform.

EDJX has also raised $3M in new funding with VCapital as the lead investor and expanded its advisory board with the prestigious board appointment of leading IT author and influencer Joe Weinman. These developments attest to the tremendous momentum EDJX is gaining since coming out of stealth last year.

The EDJX Edge Delivery Platform gives EDJX a competitive advantage by offering EDJX’s unique, peer-to-peer technology, which federates partner-owned infrastructure to create a fully managed, distributed  global platform, delivering edge computing services closer to users and connected things. The EDJX Edge Delivery Platform consists of the following services: EDJX CDN, EDJX DNS, EDJX Serverless, and EDJX Serverless DB.

EDJX has also appointed IT thought-leader, author and influencer Joe Weinman to the EDJX advisory board. Weinman holds decades of leadership experience in networking, cloud, datacenters, interconnection, and IT, including R&D, product management, corporate strategy, marketing and sales, business development, and operations. He is a global keynote speaker and author, board member, and inventor with 26 issued patents in cloud computing, networking, and related technologies. Perhaps best known for his seminal Cloudonomics, he is also the author of books on digital strategy and fog computing, and was the contributing editor of the Cloud Economics column for IEEE Cloud Computing magazine.

“A decade ago I analyzed the cost and performance trade-offs of centralization and dispersion and predicted the rise of the edge; EDJX founders John Cowan and James Thomason are not only making this vision a reality, but have engineered a unique platform with disruptive cost and performance,” says Joe Weinman. “It’s a pleasure and an honor to collaborate with the Board and the management team to help shape the company’s direction and help it realize its potential.”
