Abstract
A compute server receives a request from a client device that triggers execution of a third-party code piece. The compute server is one of multiple compute servers that are part of a distributed cloud computing network. The request may be an HTTP request and directed to a zone. A single process at the compute server executes the third-party code piece in an isolated execution environment. The single process is also executing other third-party code pieces in other isolated execution environments respectively. A response is generated to the request based at least in part on the executed third-party code piece, and the generated response is transmitted to the client device.
