[Template Proposal] Edge Content Intelligence Worker (KV caching, multi-consumer) #896

Description

@esteininger

Summary

Proposing a new template: Edge Content Intelligence Worker - a cache-first edge service that replaces client-side enrichment for ads, analytics, and personalization.

What This Template Demonstrates

This template showcases several Cloudflare-native patterns:

Pattern Implementation
KV-native caching Content profiles cached in Cloudflare KV for global, low-latency retrieval
Pre-warm + invalidate flows Cache on content publish, invalidate on update
Multiple downstream consumers Single analysis serves ads (GAM/OpenRTB), analytics (GA4), and internal services
First-party execution Runs on your domain, no client-side JS dependency
Cacheable, deterministic outputs Same URL always produces same profile

Architecture

| Ad Server   | Analytics     | Internal ML   |
| (GAM/PBS)   | (GA/BI)       | / Personal.   |
+-------------+---------------+---------------+

One analysis → Many consumers

Why This Fits the Templates Collection

  1. Real workload - Solves actual production problem (client-side JS sprawl)
    1. Cloudflare-native - Uses KV, Workers, edge execution model
    1. Privacy-first - No cookies, no PII, first-party only
    1. Multi-binding example - KV + Secrets + fetch

Positioning

"Replacing client-side enrichment with a cache-first edge service"

This is not positioned as:

  • An SDK or product integration
    • Adtech targeting
      • User-level tracking
        It's positioned as:
  • Shared infrastructure pattern
    • Edge-native architecture example
      • Cache-first design reference

Next Steps

Happy to:

  1. Adapt the template to match your package.json requirements
    1. Add Playwright E2E tests
    1. Trim to minimum example if preferred
      Let me know if this would be a good fit!
