Our team operates a large network of POPs around the world that we use to accelerate site traffic and cache CDN content, on top of which we build the edge platform (PaaS) to allow edge services to be easily deployed around the world close to end users. We use Kubernetes to orchestrate various services with automatic deployment and scaling in order to maximize efficiency in daily management and operations. In addition, our team builds global and local load balancers, acceleration proxies, RPC frameworks, content delivery networks, and the automation machinery to operate an internet scale edge network and handle all of ByteDance's DNS and HTTP traffics.
