    WasmEdge is a lightweight, high-performance, and extensible WebAssembly runtime for cloud native, edge, and decentralized applications. It powers serverless apps, embedded functions, microservices, smart contracts, and IoT devices.

  • https://github.com/WasmEdge/WasmEdge/releases/tag/0.12.1

    Key features:

    * New plugin system makes it easy for community to add features to WasmEdge

  • mediapipe-rs

    A Rust library for mediapipe tasks for WasmEdge WASI-NN.

  • https://wasmedge.org/docs/contribute/plugin/intro

    Some examples:

    WasmEdge’s Tensorflow Lite plugin enables lightweight (1/10 of Linux containers) and fast (native GPU) AI inference apps for Tensorflow Lite models. https://wasmedge.org/docs/develop/rust/ai_inference/tensorfl...

    WasmEdge’s PyTorch plugin enables lightweight (1/10 of Linux containers) and fast (native GPU) AI inference apps for PyTorch models. https://wasmedge.org/docs/develop/rust/ai_inference/pytorch/

    Through the new WasmEdge plugin system, the community are adding support for libraries like zlib, OpenCV, tesseract and ffmpeg etc. Putting these together, we are supporting complex AI libraries such as Mediapipe on WasmEdge! https://github.com/yanghaku/mediapipe-rs

    The Mediapipe story is esp interesting since WasmEdge is now adapted as a runtime for stream data process in products like Fluvio, Redpanda, YoMo, RisingWave and others. Mediapipe support allows developers to add AI into the stream data pipeline. https://github.com/xxchan/fluvio/pull/1

    WasmEdge’s eBPF plugin enables developers to create secure and containerized eBPF tools and controllers in Kubernetes environments.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • wasmedge_wasi_socket

    A Rust lib for socket on WasmEdge.

  • https://github.com/WasmEdge/WasmEdge/tree/master/plugins/was...

    A good example of WasmEdge 0.12.1 WASI enhancement is the ability to limit the Wasm app to read-only access to files and folders.

    WasmEdge sockets API is refactored in 0.12.1 to be compatible with the much more limited WASI socket proposal. WasmEdge sockets have become a super set of WASI sockets.

    The WasmEdge networking sockets got new features in version 0.12.1, such as DNS, network device binding and TLS. You will be able to create sophisticated microservices that require highly-efficient non-blocking network sockets. https://github.com/second-state/wasmedge_wasi_socket

    Here are several complex networking applications possible with WasmEdge sockets.

  • microservice-rust-mysql

    A template project for building a database-driven microservice in Rust and run it in the WasmEdge sandbox.

  • https://github.com/second-state/microservice-rust-mysql

    https://github.com/WasmEdge/wasmedge-db-examples

    https://github.com/WasmEdge/wasmedge_hyper_demo

    WasmEdge is already one of the smallest and most efficient Wasm runtimes out there. It embeds into libsql (SQLite on the server!) to execute user definited functions to perform complex tasks like HTTPS web services & AI inference from SQL statements! https://wasmedge.org/docs/embed/use-case/libsql/

    The WasmEdge C++ and Rust SDKs allow host applications to embed Wasm functions asynchronously. It is critically important in many applications where the embedded Wasm function is simply not allowed to block the execution of the host applications. https://github.com/second-state/wasmedge-rustsdk-examples/bl...

    Asynchronous host SDKs are complex and a lot of work still remains. We are continuously improving it with our end user and partner communities.
