There's actually a Content Delivery Network around where you can look behind the scenes. It's based on pretty much all the cool research, most of it available as production grade open source software, all initiated by Prof Yair Amir @ Johns Hopkins Uni http://www.cs.jhu.edu/~yairamir/ and is commercially known as http://www.ltnglobal.com/.

Bacalhau is a platform for fast, cost efficient, and secure computation by running jobs where the data is generated and stored. With Bacalhau you can streamline your exisiting workflows without the need of extensive rewriting by running arbitrary Docker containers and WebAssembly (wasm) images as tasks.
