I'm confused as to why the answers to a question about edge computing all seem to involve data centers. To me, the edge is about computing in business locations: factories, stores, construction sites, pipelines, trucks, whatever... all places that you typically won't find a traditional data center or public cloud presence (though, granted, you can extend the latter through something like AWS Outpost).

I am looking for an EDI parser which is a light weight, SaaS and can be run as serverless (recommended) to perform EDI transaction (834, 837 etc) HIPAA validation. 
So far, I could find Edifecs, ediFabric, Stedi and IBM ITX in the market. Can anyone provide their experience or recommendation on different tools on the market that we should evaluate?
