Distributed. Resilient. Real-Time!

Beyond the cloud — compute happens where your users are.

Rethinking the Cloud: From Centralized to Distributed

Traditional cloud platforms like AWS and Google Cloud operate centralized data centers, with Brazil served exclusively through São Paulo, offering limited regional diversity.

• All availability zones are in the same metro region
• This creates single-point bottlenecks
• Latency and resilience suffer outside major hubs

This model is efficient for general workloads but fails when applications require ultra-low latency, geo-resilience, and real-time performance — especially in regions far from central infrastructure.

Edge Computing: Cloud Closer to the Ground

Edge Computing redefines infrastructure by bringing compute closer to the end user.

• Processing happens across dozens of lightweight, distributed nodes
• Reduces dependency on distant mega data centers
• Enables fast, local execution of requests

A user in Manaus, for instance, no longer needs to round-trip to São Paulo. Their requests are served locally — something AWS or Google Cloud cannot yet do efficiently.

Cloudflare Workers: Global Execution at the Edge

With Cloudflare Workers, developers can deploy serverless functions that execute at the network edge — no need for centralized backends.

• Runs in over 300 cities worldwide
• Processes logic directly at Points of Presence (PoPs)
• Ideal for modern, scalable, latency-sensitive apps

🇧🇷 In Brazil alone:

• Present in 14 states + the Federal District
• 32 municipalities served directly by PoPs

🌎 In the Global South:

• 47 cities in Latin America & the Caribbean
• Robust presence in BRICS nations like Brazil, India, and China

Resilience, Compliance & Digital Sovereignty

Edge infrastructure naturally aligns with sovereign and compliant computing:

• Reduces exposure to regional outages
• Minimizes cross-border data transfer costs
• Enables local data residency and compliance (LGPD, etc.)
• Facilitates community-controlled infrastructure for public services and finance

This shift supports initiatives for modular sovereignty and internet localization in both public and private sectors.

The Edge Partner Program (EPP)

Cloudflare goes beyond its own backbone with the Edge Partner Program, allowing ISPs and local data centers to:

• Host Cloudflare hardware within regional facilities
• Join one of the world’s most distributed networks
• Deliver global performance with local control

It's not just about cloud anymore — it's about being present, fast and sovereign.

‍Cloud used to be distant. Now, it's where you are.

With EBX Edge Infrastructure powered by Cloudflare Workers, you’re ready for the next generation of apps — instant, resilient, and truly global from the first request.
