Alfred Edge is the frontier between Alfresco and the external actors using its services. Alfred Edge guarantees quality of service, levels load, adds resilience, and assigns priorities to certain types of services. With reactive capabilities, we can batch and throttle  large input streams, and safeguard authorised access.

When moving into the “cloud” age, your end users will interact directly with content, likewise your internal applications. Alfresco will act as a transactional system and an active archive at the same time. Alfred Edge creates a buffer of safety and service delivery between the random and peak access from third party system, user interfaces, portals and the external world.
