In part one of this podcast on edge computing, we spoke about the problems that cloud databases cause. Despite its universal acclaim and celebration for nearly the last two decades, its traditional architecture makes it limited.

In part two of this podcast on edge computing, Macrometa's CEO Chetan Venkatesh and Senior Vice President of Sales David Cumberworth elaborate on the best ways to build geo-distributed applications using edge computing. Building applications and APIs on a serverless platform has many benefits, and can ultimately save your company time and resources.
