Abstract:
A request is received from a client device at a first datacenter a distributed cloud computing network. The distributed cloud computing network includes multiple datacenters. The received request triggers execution of code at the distributed cloud computing network. The code includes a first function and a second function. A determination is made to execute the first function at the first datacenter and to execute the second function at a second datacenter of the distributed cloud computing network. The first function is executed at the first datacenter to get a first result. The first datacenter causes the second function to be executed at the second datacenter. The first datacenter receives, from the second datacenter, a second result from the execution of the second function. The first datacenter transmits a response to the client device that is based at least in part on the first result and the second result.
