What happens when your distributed application leaves the safety of a well-connected cloud region and must keep working across stores, factories, vehicles, remote sites, wireless links, and unreliable WAN connections?
At the edge, the network is no longer invisible infrastructure. It becomes part of the application's performance, security, availability, and failure model.
Edge Networking for Distributed Systems gives developers, network engineers, cloud and platform professionals, architects, and technology leaders a practical framework for designing systems that remain responsive and dependable when distance, congestion, disconnection, mobility, and limited bandwidth become everyday operating conditions.
Rion Frost begins with the architectural decisions that matter most: where workloads should run, which dependencies must remain local, how much latency a workflow can tolerate, what should happen when a path degrades, and how systems should recover after connectivity returns.
You will learn how to reason about latency budgets, jitter, loss, retries, backpressure, offline queues, state synchronization, correlated failure domains, IPv4 and IPv6, DNS, MTU problems, tunnels, SD-WAN, traffic priority, path diversity, and resilient routing.
The book then examines modern application communication through TCP, QUIC, HTTP/3, gRPC, MQTT, WebSockets, datagrams, service discovery, API gateways, load balancing, and Kubernetes service networking. Security is treated as an architectural concern through zero trust, workload identity, mutual TLS, segmentation, SASE, secure enrollment, secrets management, and resilient policy enforcement.
Dedicated chapters cover cloud-native edge platforms, GitOps under intermittent connectivity, fleet management, OpenTelemetry, distributed tracing, packet analysis, synthetic testing, and hypothesis-driven troubleshooting. Realistic industry patterns span retail, manufacturing, logistics, healthcare, energy, telecommunications, media, smart infrastructure, and edge AI.
A practical field playbook, architecture review checklists, site-acceptance tests, capacity-planning tools, rollout gates, incident-triage guidance, and five reference architecture patterns help turn the concepts into repeatable engineering practice.
Design the network as part of the system—not as a dependency you hope will always work.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
