By “on the edge”, I mean that if you’re in London and I’m in Amsterdam, and we want to exchange messages, the messages shouldn’t have to do a round-trip through Virginia, they should go through a server closer to both of us. (Of course, if I’m in SF and you’re in London, this is less of a win.)
The way it works in DriftDB is that everything is siloed into “rooms”, which are effectively broadcast channels. The room is started based on the geography of the person who first joins it (Cloudflare handles this part).
