1. A system for providing multi-access edge computing and content delivery, comprising:
at least one cloud platform in network communication with at least one edge device; and
at least one server node;
wherein the at least one cloud platform includes a cloud platform domain name system (DNS) service, an edge DNS service, at least one cloud platform application programming interface (API), at least one cloud platform router, a cloud platform database, and a node database;
wherein the at least one cloud platform is in network communication with the at least one server node;
wherein the at least one cloud platform is operable to fetch node data from the at least one server node;
wherein the at least one cloud platform is operable to receive a hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) request from the at least one edge device;
wherein the at least one cloud platform is operable to execute the HTTP request using the at least one server node;
wherein the at least one server node is operable to create at least one network;
wherein the at least one server node is operable to deliver network services to the at least one edge device through the at least one network; and
wherein the at least one server node is registered in a cloud platform global registry using an HTTP POST request to a global service address and wherein the cloud platform global registry is associated with the at least one cloud platform.
