About Fastly
Fastly operates a global edge cloud platform that provides content delivery network (CDN), cybersecurity, and edge computing services to help websites and applications deliver faster, more secure digital experiences. The company's platform is built on a modern, programmable architecture that allows developers to deploy custom logic at edge locations worldwide, enabling real-time content optimization, security filtering, and application acceleration. Fastly serves major digital brands including Shopify, The New York Times, GitHub, and Stripe.
Fastly differentiates itself from traditional CDN providers through its developer-centric approach and real-time configuration capabilities, allowing customers to make instant changes to their edge configurations without the delays typical of legacy CDN services. The company has expanded beyond basic content delivery into edge computing, security services, and video streaming optimization. Fastly went public in 2019 and has positioned itself as a premium alternative to hyperscaler CDN services, focusing on performance, flexibility, and developer experience rather than competing purely on price.
