Fastly's Superior Infrastructure and Performance
Fastly stands out with its innovative approach to network services, offering exceptional infrastructure and performance capabilities. Unlike Edgio's CDN, Fastly is built on a single network, ensuring streamlined operations and enhanced security. Fastly's network accelerates web and app performance, delivering real-time features and faster time to first byte (TTFB) compared to Edgio. With Instant Purge™ technology, Fastly can cache more, purge instantly, and achieve a remarkable 29% faster TTFB, showcasing its superior performance capabilities.
Deployment Choices and Configurability
Fastly provides extensive deployment choices for its Next-Gen WAF, allowing deployment in the cloud, containers, data centers, at the edge, or any combination of these options. In contrast, Edgio's WAF can only be deployed on its network, limiting flexibility. Fastly's focus on configurability empowers users to have timely control over content, caching, and rollbacks. The platform is designed to be DevOps and CI/CD friendly, offering an API-first approach for all services. Fastly's G2 'Administration' rating of 8.8 surpasses Edgio's 7.3, highlighting its user-friendly and flexible configuration options.
