Abstract

Edge functions at an edge location of a content delivery network (CDN) may use APIs of a datastore engine in order to read/write or create/delete local tables at the edge location. Data may be accumulated in the local tables and the new data may be used to enhance decision at the edge. Some of the local tables may be initially populated from a back-end database. This allows the functions to modify the data from the back-end database, without affecting the actual source data at the back-end database (modifications to local tables remain local to the edge location).
