Realize the full potential of your edge architecture with Fauna

Reduce latency and build faster, more performant edge apps with Fauna's distributed database.

Fauna is a distributed, serverless database — making it a perfect fit for serverless edge architectures. When you create a database in Fauna, it is distributed by default (across multiple regions), bringing data closer to your global edge compute nodes and in turn reducing latency for your end-users. As your application scales, Fauna's native serverless architecture takes care of scaling, sharding, patching and other maintenance tasks so you can focus on building features.
