Hi HN!

I'm Syrus, from Wasmer. We have created Wasmer Edge as a powerful alternative to the Clouds. An alternative that allows reusing the codebases that worked in the Cloud without rewriting them to custom SDKs (such as Amazon Lambda, or Cloudflare Workers), and running them at CDN-like prices.

With Wasmer Edge you can use a normal http-server in any language or even write a full DNS server based on it. We are incredibly excited of the paths that will open ahead.

For those interested, here's the document showcasing how everything is architected:

Feel free ask any questions you may have here, myself and the team will be incredibly happy to answer them!



Hi Syrus, this looks great and I'm an early adopter of WASM and Wasmer so anything new on this end is interesting to me.

That said,

... this was very anticlimactic, it made me look away, honestly.

Could you just let us all in?


I feel your pain. We need to scale it slowly to provide the best experience for the people and companies using it (including tight and free support!) but hopefully we will be able to open the service to everyone soon.

I guess we really internalized YC's motto: we rather have one person having a great experience and loving us, than 10 liking us with an ok experience than 100 using us with a poor experience ...and the waitlist helps on that quest.

Although it seems there's a good chance you'll love the product. Feel free to message me to syrus@wasmer.io and we'll be in touch soon!


Thank you!
