Edge
Edge apps run within a single 10x Engine sidecar process alongside your log forwarder. The forwarder pipes events to the engine (via stdin/socket), the engine processes them through one or more apps, and returns them to the forwarder for shipping to output destinations.

class D optimizer
class E forwarderEdge apps build progressively—each tier includes all capabilities of the previous:
- 📥 Forwarder — Log shipper pipes events to the 10x sidecar (stdin/socket), receives processed events back, and ships to output
- 📊 Reporter — Analyze event costs in real-time; events return unchanged (read-only)
- 🚫 Regulator — + Rate-based filtering drops noisy telemetry before returning
- 🗜️ Optimizer — + Losslessly compacts events 50-80% before returning
