About

Akamai's EdgeWorkers is a serverless computing platform that enables developers to deploy custom JavaScript code at the edge, optimizing user experiences by executing logic closer to end users. This approach reduces latency by eliminating high-latency calls to origin servers, enhancing performance, and improving security by moving exposed client-side logic to the edge. EdgeWorkers supports various use cases, including AB testing, geolocation-based content delivery, data protection, privacy compliance, dynamic website personalization, traffic management, and device-based personalization. Developers can write JavaScript code and deploy it via API, CLI, or GUI, leveraging Akamai's scalable architecture that automatically manages infrastructure during growth or traffic spikes. The platform integrates with Akamai's EdgeKV, a distributed key-value store, enabling data-driven applications with low-latency data access.

About

Start, build and ship full-stack apps with AI or code on the platform built for agent experience (AX). AI makes it easy to generate code. The harder part comes next. Getting changes live. Keeping systems stable. Understanding what broke when something doesn’t behave as expected. That challenge grows as updates happen faster and more often. Netlify brings the whole development workflow into one platform. Builders and agents move from idea to production quickly, without losing context. Our best-in-class agent experience (AX) results in a shared workflow where humans and AI agents work side by side quickly and safely. We bring together all modern web frameworks, serverless functions, edge computing and managed Postgres in one platform. Leading AI coding agents like Claude Code, Codex CLI and Gemini CLI come built in. More than 15 million builders use Netlify, from solo developers and vibe coders to Fortune 100 companies and teams at Bolt, Figma, Mattel, and Riot Games.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Netlify has a nice platform, and the CMS is a nice touch. They also USED to have good service pricing but now everyone is leaving because of how bad it is.
  • The pros of using Netlify are that you cannot find any other easy software to host you web app. You can directly host you Github repository. It has crash reposts and logging, so it makes development much more easy.
  • Easy to use. Integration with different version control sites makes it fast. Free to use. Easy deployment of websites.
  • - The biggest pro is that Netlify lets you host your first site for free. This is a blessing for those getting started with blogging since they do not have to pay any hosting fee.
  • - Netlify makes it a walk in the park to setup a static site and integrate it with GitHub. It removes all the clutter that other CMS platforms have.

Cons

  • Netlify attracted a bunch of people to their platform through good competitive pricing and offerings. Now, not only is the pricing atrocious. They did it with no warning! No messages or emails before hand, nothing. And on top of that they tried to right it off as a "minor change". As if a 1000% increase to my billing is "minor" and no I'm not even exaggerating. And the best part? It's not even for a service they provide. They are trying to get people to pay for git contributors. so in essence the service that GitHub or Bitbucket or whoever you use for git is providing.
  • The only con is that the price is quite high apart from that you can use this for basic purposes in free tier.
  • The documentation can be slightly introduced as beginners find it a little difficult to understand.
  • - Netlify doesn't follow the traditional model like hosting with WordPress on your hosting site so it might be a little confusing at first.
  • - Not as feature rich compared to something like Drupal or Joomla.
