What happened
Groq uses E2B's sandboxed code execution environment to let its Compound Beta AI system run code securely and quickly as part of answering queries, alongside web search. The sandboxes are integrated as a module in Groq's existing infrastructure and handle many concurrent requests.
Summary written by usedby from the source page, in English. The figures are those of E2B and Groq, not ours.
When Groq set out to build Compound, they needed a solution for code execution that would maintain their performance edge while ensuring security and reliability. E2B's sandbox environment proved to be the perfect fit.
We had implemented E2B in a week, needing just a single engineer working on that in spare cycles. Building this in-house would take us a few weeks and require multiple people.
E2B was the only solution that could match our requirements for both security and speed. The fast sandbox startup time was a game-changer for us.
