Introduction


How can OTFP help?

OTFP lets you store files and dynamically package and deliver optimized versions when requested. It supoorts common streaming formats and resolutions to give you flexibility when delivering media. For example, you can package and deliver different versions for mobile users as their network connection improves or degrades. And since we only package what users request, you deliver only what is needed.

Real-time logging:

Log any aspect of HTTP requests and responses in real-time and get the
crucial visibility you need to monitor for security threats, troubleshoot
performance issues, and innovate at the edge. And, because we believe your
log data belongs to you, we don’t store logs.

Log streaming:

We deliver real-time, customizable logs to an extensive variety of supported
endpoints
to enhance your business workflows. Dig into any aspect of
a request or response to diagnose problems and understand how your
customers are engaging with your web properties

Logging insights:

Get the most out of your Fastly deployment without tying up scarce IT or
engineering resources. This professional services offering provides you with
a guided customization of preconfigured Sumo Logic dashboards tailored to
your specific business needs.
