Accelerates the deployment and delivery of Progressive Web Applications

Webscale, the Cloud Platform for Modern Commerce, today launched CloudEDGE PWA, the industry’s first end-to-end progressive web application (PWA) delivery solution. CloudEDGE PWA supports frontend delivery for any commerce platform backend, including Adobe/Magento, Shopify, Hybris, Salesforce Commerce Cloud or BigCommerce, and facilitates the delivery of enterprise, custom or open-source PWA frameworks, in a matter of minutes. Webscale brings enterprise-class, PWA cloud delivery to stores of any size, on any platform globally, with speed, scalability, security, and programmability.

The Speed and Simplicity of Market-proven PWAs

With mobile commerce representing over half of all online sales, and struggling with the demands of Core Web Vitals, brands and B2B organizations need native app-like experiences, with lightning-fast load times, and device-optimized performance, to improve their user experience. PWAs combine traditional website functionalities with the best mobile app features to help brands reach and win new customers.

Webscale’s CloudEDGE PWA enables the rapid deployment and delivery of any PWA framework, from within the CloudEDGE content delivery network (CDN), optimized for consistently fast performance across any device type, and eliminating the need for additional infrastructure. PWAs are now deployed close to the user, within the network’s edge, and can connect seamlessly to the origin across self- and fully-hosted ecommerce platforms, microservices or packaged business capabilities.
