Distributed Edge Compute with NexaKit

Learn how to implement low-latency cloud-to-device communication using Elousias' modular edge computing toolkit.

What is Edge Computing?

Edge computing is a distributed computing paradigm that brings computation and data storage closer to the location where it is needed. With Elousias' NexaKit, you can deploy microservices globally while maintaining sub-50ms latency across all nodes.

Key Features
⚡

Ultra-Low Latency

Achieve 0-50ms latency between edge nodes using our optimized network routing.

🌍

Global Reach

Automatically deploy to 150+ edge locations across AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure.

🚀

Auto-Scaling

Smart load balancing with automatic scaling between 1-100k parallel instances.

Getting Started

Install NexaKit CLI 
npm install -g @elousias/nexa

Or use Docker: 

docker run --rm -it elousias/nexakit:latest

Initialize Project

nexa init my-edge-project

Creates a project with:

  • Pre-configured deployment profiles
  • Latency-optimized routing matrix
  • Security defaults for edge execution

Configuration Example

deploy.json 
{
  "targets": [
    {"region": "us-east-1", "capacity": 30},
    {"region": "eu-west-1", "capacity": 20},
    {"region": "ap-southeast-1", "capacity": 15},
    {"region": "sa-east-1", "capacity": 10}
  ],
  "autoscaling": {
    "min": 10,
    "max": 1000
  }
}

This config will:

  • Deploy to four regions
  • Allow automatic scaling from 10 to 1000 instances
  • Optimize for 70:30 latency-to-cost ratio

Code Example

index.js

const { EdgeFunction } = require('@elousias/nexa');

module.exports = new EdgeFunction({
    compute: 'arm64',
    memory: '256MB',
    coldStart: 'warn'
});

This defines a minimal edge function with:

  • ARM64 architecture selection
  • 256MB memory allocation
  • Cold start behavior: warn on startup
