The Guardian: Our day hacking with Compute
Our customers at the Guardian recently participated in an internal hack day with Compute to find creative solutions to business problems with the hands-on support of our team. Oliver Barnwell, a Full Stack Developer at the Guardian, walked us through the process of building his winning hackathon project on Compute in this guest post.
Taming third parties with a single-origin website
Almost all webpages today load resources from origins other than the one the page came from, which can play havoc with the way your site loads and make it harder to write a strict Content-Security-Policy. In this post, we’ll show you a better way using Compute@Edge.
Introducing the Compute KV Store — global, persistent storage for compute functions
Our new KV Store offers global, durable storage for compute functions at the edge. With fast reads and writes from both the edge or via API, you can store, control, or cache your data to reduce origin dependency and unlock new use cases.
Three questions that make edge state easier to design
In this post, we’ll cover three questions — and recommendations for each — to ask yourself on the front end of application development to save time when it comes to scale.
Fastly & Fauna aid Climatiq's data-driven climate decisions w/ distributed & serverless tech | Fastly
Climatiq’s mission is to drive climate action through data and insight. In this blog post, we share how choosing Fauna as their database and Fastly’s Compute@Edge for their compute layer enabled Climatiq to achieve climate efficiency with their own architectures, and accelerate their ability to get their API in the hands of users.
iCloud Private Relay and what it means for customers
iCloud Private Relay is a new internet privacy service from Apple. With iCloud Private Relay, users with an iPhone, iPad, or Mac and an iCloud+ subscription can connect to and browse the internet and in a more secure and private way using Safari.
Meet the next iteration of JavaScript on Compute
Today we’re happy to announce that we’ve made several improvements to Compute that substantially boost the performance of the JavaScript runtime, as well as the overall developer experience on the platform.
Fastly + Fanout: real-time messaging and edge computing combined | Fastly
We're thrilled to join forces with Fanout. The integration of Fanout technology into our network will help enable real-time app development at the edge with improved time-to-market, reduced friction, and unprecedented scale.
Fastly named Leader in commercial CDN by IDC MarketScape | Fastly
We are honored to announce that Fastly has been named a Leader in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Commercial CDN Services 2022 Vendor Assessment.
Migrated developer site to Compute@Edge | Fastly
If you build stuff on Fastly, chances are you spend a decent amount of time on our Developer Hub. Last month, we migrated it from our VCL platform to Compute. Here's how we did it and what you can learn from it.
Custom response codes for Fastly WAF | Fastly
With the introduction of custom response codes, our edge cloud network can now pick up response codes from the Fastly Next-Gen WAF and take custom action at the edge — without the need to create advanced rules. That means more customized, more efficient security for our customers.
Compute@Edge partners growing | Fastly
We’re excited to announce a growing ecosystem of partners who are tapping into our powerful edge cloud network and using Compute to extend their platform to be even closer to customers.
Easier edge building with Fastly and Glitch | Fastly
Our new partnership lets you deploy Glitch apps to Compute@Edge, making it even easier to build high-quality, customized digital experiences on our edge cloud platform.
Bootstrap a Compute project with Fastly Fiddle
The Fastly CLI now supports bootstrapping Compute projects using fiddles made in Fastly Fiddle as a template. This enables users to get a local developer environment up and running very quickly using one of many ready-made solutions from Fastly’s public code example library, which can then be adapted and customized for your own needs.
Cloud Deploy simplifies Compute@Edge projects | Fastly
We’re introducing Cloud Deploy, a wizard that helps you start building on Compute by deploying and customizing templates, and sets you up with an automated deployment workflow and best development practices.
What benefits does "the edge" offer digital publishing? | Fastly
By bringing your content closer to the reader, you bypass the conventional cost and rules associated with server space and infrastructure maintenance, and you gain some additional benefits. Let’s explore them.
Grinch bots penalized w/ enriched security data & our edge cloud platform | Fastly
In this post, we’ll show how you can use information from an origin response to add an abuse IP address to our penalty box. We've been touting the promise of security at the edge, and this is just one example of what it can do.
Lies, stats, debunking Cloudflare | Fastly
A couple of weeks ago Cloudflare, one of our competitors, claimed that their edge compute platform is roughly three times as fast as Compute@Edge. The false claim is a great example of how statistics can be used to mislead.
Subresource monitoring with Compute
Compute, our serverless compute environment, can be used to solve headaches dealing with attackers looking to modify and manipulate resources. In this post, we tell you how.
You can now test Compute code in Fastly Fiddle
Fastly customers have been using our Fiddle tool for years to try out ideas for edge logic in VCL. With the advent of Compute last year, we made our edge compute network accessible to any language that compiles to WebAssembly, and now you can write Compute code in Fiddle too.
