Why move to Fastly?
See the methodology behind how we got these numbers.
Architecture: Fastly is differentiated from legacy CDNs by being built for the modern internet. We have powerful POPs on one network to cache more and deliver faster.
Performance: A better network accelerates your web and app performance and delivers true real-time features. Deliver faster, cache more, and purge instantly (150ms Mean Purge Time) by doing more from the edge and less from your origin.
Control and Configurability: Full configurability gives you control over your content, caching, and roll-backs. Fastly is DevOps and CI/CD friendly, and always API-first.
Marketplace: Fastly is the only external CDN on the AWS Marketplace and Google Cloud Marketplace, providing simplified billing and procurement.
Real-Time Visibility: Our real-time log streaming, to a provider of choice, provides instant visibility into traffic, performance, potential threats, and troubleshooting. Eliminate black boxes and access granular visibility at every stage of the request path, from origin to edge.
Superior Support: Fastly delivers superior customer support with a CSAT (Customer Satisfaction) score of 95%, and a G2 ‘Quality of Support’ rating of 9.4, compared to Akamai’s 8.1 (as of January 2024) .
Secure: Fastly minimizes the attack surface area present in most multi-tenant serverless platforms through our isolation technology, which creates/destroys a sandbox in microseconds for each individual request our platform processes–unlike with V8 instances.
Accessing distributed data instantaneously - Read local, distribute key-value pairs globally in 320 ms with the Fastly KV Store.

En combinant HTTP/3 et Brotli, un nouveau système de compression, nous offrons de meilleures performances et une expérience beaucoup plus rapide à nos clients. »
David Annez, Head of Engineering chez Loveholidays
« En tant qu’ingénieur, si j’ai des questions, elles sont généralement très techniques. C’est un plaisir de travailler avec des personnes qui comprennent les questions que je me pose. Et chaque fois que je crée un ticket d’assistance avec Fastly, j’obtiens une réponse le jour même de la part de la bonne personne qui possède les compétences techniques nécessaires pour m’aider à résoudre mon problème. »
Brian Benns, Senior Site Reliability Engineer, GIPHY
« Nous avons choisi Fastly pour sa flexibilité. Fastly nous donne accès à l’ensemble de la configuration : nous pouvons faire ce que nous voulons et le déployer. Cela n’est possible avec aucun autre CDN. La plupart des CDN ont une interface utilisateur complexe avec laquelle il faut composer, et il faut faire appel à un ingénieur pour modifier la configuration. Fastly nous fait gagner du temps et de l’énergie. »
Alan Schaaf, fondateur et CEO d’Imgur
