Descriptions

Section

Section.io is one of those great companies that has forseen the future and made sure it’s established it’s name 10 years from now.

Built by developers for developers (api-first, ci/cd etc etc) and integration with BGP routing will ensure you’ll have a smooth experience running your applications practically next to the end-user’s home.

What is so unique about Section is their ability to visualize your cloud application’s flow in internet terms. This gives users a fantastic feel with their applications' whereabouts and performance.

A partnership with Centurylink will guarantee their sucess as a scaleup.

Stackpath Serverless

Stackpath’s dominant reign in the CDN space allowed space to expand their activity to the FaaS space.

Stackpath’s Sanbox environment to test functions works very fast and requires no registration, domain name or anything for that matter.

Having acquired at least 5 sizable companies in the last few years, it was only a waiting game before they announced to run serverless on their backbone-powered super fast infrastructure.

Having their own Backbone, Stackpath will be able to deliver on their promise to deliver at the microsecond.
