Using storage along with worker code to perform the function should make this possible.

Our hope is that anyone could create such an API, not just Cloudflare. Just like we are building storage on top of workers, we hope to eliminate the distinction between what is possible for a Cloudflare employee and what is possible for any of our customers.

Yes, that is one of the models we have been considering.

Last write wins. There are several features for controlling consistency that we have been prototyping. Based on how storage is used we will enable those as the product matures.

Hi skrebbel, storage is my project at Cloudflare.

Last write wins, for some definition of last (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eventual_consistency).

As we see how initial developers make use of the storage, we are planning to add additional synchronization and consistency functionality. For example the ETags model using If-None-Match and If-Match would be appealing to some.
