Fastly is an edge cloud platform combining CDN, edge compute, and security with real-time, programmable configuration aimed at developers and businesses. Its anycast network of 100+ points of presence supports instant cache purging and edge logic, with DDoS protection included. Bandwidth is billed on a usage basis and there is no perpetual free tier, though trial credit is available for evaluation. A Web Application Firewall is offered as a separate product rather than bundled. Founded in 2011, Fastly holds SOC 2, ISO 27001, and PCI-DSS attestations and suits teams wanting fine-grained, developer-first content delivery.
