Company site ↗About Edward
A founder who still builds the systems.
Edward Hsing, whose legal name is Yujie Xing, works where software architecture meets public internet operations. He founded EdgeAlphix LLC and DigitalPlat Foundation, Inc. and remains directly involved in the engineering behind his projects.
The beginning
One domain became an infrastructure project.
At 15, Edward let a few friends use subdomains under a domain he owned. Running that small DNS experiment for other people exposed the difference between a project that works once and infrastructure that has to keep working.
It became DigitalPlat FreeDomain. The work widened into domains, developer tools, systems software, and public-interest technology. At 19, Edward's role spans engineering and the organizations required to operate and sustain it.
