Edgee partners with Upsun to bring edge components to their customers
Today, I'm very excited to announce a strategic partnership between Edgee and Upsun (ex Platform.sh), bringing the power of Edgee Components to their global customer base.
This collaboration marks a major step forward in how organizations deploy and run critical web services at the edge, starting with privacy-first, high-performance analytics.
Traditional Analytics is broken
Companies rely on web analytics to optimize their products, measure marketing efforts, and train AI models to improve churn and boost conversions. But traditional browser-based tracking solutions come with serious limitations:
- Lost Data: Ad blockers, browser restrictions, and web performance issues prevent analytics SDKs from capturing the full picture, leading to incomplete insights.
- Privacy & Compliance Risks: Companies must navigate complex laws like GDPR and CCPA, often at the cost of limiting content or product insights.
- Slow Performance: Client-side tracking scripts slow down websites, hurting Core Web Vitals and SEO rankings.
As a result, up to 40% of user and usage data is lost due to these problems. Traditional browser-based data collection create blind spots, leading to incomplete information and potentially flawed strategic decisions.
The Solution: Edgee Components for Data Collection
Instead of relying on heavy JavaScript SDKs running in the browser, Edgee Components execute analytics logic directly at the edge of the network, before data reaches the user's device.
With Edgee Components, organizations can achieve complete visibility into their data while maintaining compliance with privacy regulations. The components process data at the network edge, significantly reducing latency and enabling real-time insights. By removing the burden of client-side scripts, organizations can deliver a faster web experience to their users.
We are particularly proud that Edgee Components will be distributed directly within Upsun's worldwide infrastructure. This deep integration makes it incredibly easy to get started with Edgee, simplifying infrastructure and setup requirements.
By leveraging Upsun's extensive global presence, Edgee Components will be instantly available across their network of data centers, ensuring optimal performance and low latency for users worldwide.
How Edgee and Upsun work together
Upsun (Platform.sh) is known for its powerful deployment and hosting infrastructure, and Edgee will enable its customers to:
- Deploy Edgee Components alongside their applications, reducing reliance on browser-based SDKs.
- Run analytics at the edge, ensuring accurate and privacy-compliant data collection.
- Improve website performance with zero client-side tracking scripts.
"By integrating Edgee's Components, we're giving Upsun users a new level of control over their data—without performance trade-offs."
