  • Testing HTTP freshness in CDNs

    Mark Nottingham

    CDNs all use HTTP caching to optimize performance, but sometimes different CDNs do it in slightly different ways and that can make things more complicated for our customers. This blog post makes a case for CDN interoperability and introduces a common test suite to help identify differences between CDNs to start paving the way.

  • Move Fastly

    Artur Bergman

    When I started Fastly in 2011 I wanted to bring the CDN experience into the 21st century – CDNs were too slow, inflexible and opaque. Based on our experience building large websites, we re-thought how to deliver content, built a powerful caching engine and tied it together with advanced distributed systems.

  • CDNs in a Nutshell

    Ryan Richards

    When I first joined Fastly two years ago, I had a vague idea of what Content Delivery Networks – CDNs – were and how they worked. Since then I’ve learned quite a bit more from some very bright folks and now have a pretty good grip on things. It recently occurred to me that there are probably a lot of people who think about CDNs the way I once did, so I decided to share what I’ve learned by writing this article and hopefully in the process showcase some of the ways Fastly is different from traditional CDNs.

  • Deploying Applications with Golden Images and Chef

    Jason Cook

    I recently had the pleasure of speaking at ChefConf 2013 in San Francisco. My presentation showcased how both Chef and Golden Images can be used together for deploying applications faster. I also addressed some of the common pitfalls that can make deployments painful and how to avoid them. Because we need to be able to deploy often, our goal is to be able to create a process that is repeatable, scalable and readily modified. It's not always easy and small mistakes can turn into annoying problems fast. Hope you enjoy my presentation! - Jason

  • Surrogate Keys: Part 1

    Tyler McMullen

    Here at Fastly HQ, we want websites to be fast. Caching is commonly used to speed up websites. However, caching rapidly changing and unpredictably updated content can be difficult. To make it easier, we built surrogate keys: a system that makes it possible to quickly purge related content.

  • Surrogate Keys: Part 2

    Devon O'Dell

    One of my favorite computer science jokes is that there are only two truly difficult problems in computer science: naming things, cache invalidation, and off-by-one errors. At Fastly, we deal with these sorts of difficult problems every day. In our previous post on surrogate keys, we discussed how this feature can help you solve the problem of invalidating dynamic content. In this post, we’ll take a look under the hood at how we efficiently represented this system.
