Revolutionizing Internet Delivery with Fastly's High-Density POPs and Edge Cloud Platform

Fastly's Innovative Approach to Internet Delivery

In today's fast-paced digital landscape, traditional content delivery networks (CDNs) are evolving to meet the demands of the modern internet. Fastly, a leading edge cloud platform provider, has revolutionized internet delivery by deploying a network of high-density points of presence (POPs) strategically located around the world. Unlike legacy CDNs that rely on numerous dispersed POPs, Fastly focuses on fewer, more powerful POPs equipped with Tier 1 transit, solid-state drive (SSD) powered servers, and a team dedicated to optimizing for speed.

Enhanced Performance and Global Reach

Fastly's high-density POPs allow for the efficient delivery of content by serving more from cache, including static and event-driven content. This optimized approach results in a higher cache hit ratio, ultimately enhancing user experiences by reducing latency and improving load times. With a global capacity of 377 Tbps of connected capacity and a mean purge time of 150ms with Instant Purge™, Fastly ensures rapid content delivery on a global scale.

Cutting-Edge Protocols and Standards

Fastly's edge cloud platform supports a wide range of protocols and standards, including HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2, HTTP/3, QUIC, and various versions of TLS. This comprehensive support ensures compatibility with modern web technologies, enabling seamless content delivery and enhanced security for users and businesses alike.

Peering with Fastly for Enhanced Connectivity

Fastly actively peers with other Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and Content Networks through Autonomous System (AS) 54113, facilitating the exchange of traffic to enhance connectivity and network performance. This strategic peering initiative reinforces Fastly's commitment to providing a robust and reliable infrastructure for seamless content delivery.
