Securing your Apps with Cloud Edge
ngrok Cloud Edge is a distributed computing architecture that brings middleware functions to the cloud and closer to users, offering faster configuration, reduced infrastructure burden, and improved security and performance for applications and APIs. By using ngrok's command line or edge configurations, developers can add various middleware functionalities such as webhook security, network restrictions, circuit breakers, geographic data injection, SSO, HTTP compression, and more to their applications without running a separate middleware infrastructure. The Cloud Edge architecture allows isolating applications from bad traffic, reducing scale and security issues, and adding capabilities to non-HTTP apps like IoT devices and legacy applications.
