Hi Everyone 👋

Interesting times, huh? Edge has been impacted by the fallout from Covid-19 like many other businesses, with significant loss of business and a reduction in our pipeline. We’ve taken a number of steps to secure our runway and remain confident for the future. The network's proposition is unique, and a key selling point is price. This gives it a competitive edge in these challenging times.

Subscriptions for CDN are on stage ready for release. It’s Friday, so we’re going to hold until Monday. In the meantime, here’s a breakdown of what’s on offer:

We’ve focused on subscriptions over pay as you go for this first release because we need to manage growth at this stage in the network’s lifecycle. PAYG will be added as an option in time.

Fiat payments are being released first. Why? Because we are targeting as wide an array of businesses as possible.

Crypto subscriptions will be going live in around about a month, but are available now directly through the team. Hit us up on sales@edge.network if you’re interested.

Also to note, we are accepting $EDGE as payment for services. This is an alternative to swapping for those holding the token for service use, and is designed to keep things simple for them. We’re pegging the value of $EDGE used for services in this manner to TNC.

We have six subscription levels available:

• Free
• Developer
• Startup
• Growth
• Business
• Enterprise

These levels benchmark well with traditional cloud-based alternatives, delivering an average saving of 60% vs. traditional cloud services (based on existing production customer data).

Set up is fast and hassle-free, and you can be online in minutes.

CDN provides a full imaging pipeline as standard. This is an extremely powerful functionality that enables the treatment of source images in real-time, removing the need for an intermediary layer and enabling you to handle media in code.

You can crop, scale, rotate, optimise colourise, combine, blur, filter, flip, format, and sharpen using URL variables in image requests.

Site updates are coming soon, focusing the homepage on the first service to have payments live. This will include an intro video to Edge CDN. Documentation will also be going live on site.
