from The Edge Computing Podcast with Fexingo: Local Compute, CDNs, and Distributed Infrastructure · host Fexingo
Episode 11 of The Edge Computing Podcast with Fexingo dives into the invisible infrastructure behind mobile gaming. Lucas and Luna explore how edge computing is slashing latency for real-time multiplayer games, using the example of Tencent's deployment of over 1,000 edge nodes across China to reduce lag from 100 milliseconds to under 10. They discuss the trade-offs between centralized cloud and distributed edge, the role of 5G in enabling this shift, and why game developers are rewriting netcode to leverage local compute. The episode also touches on how this model affects CDN pricing and what it means for the next generation of mobile esports.
