We were originally drawn to Fastly because of how developer-friendly their service was. We had access to pretty much the entire range of custom VCL, and, as rapidly as Fastly added new features to the UI, we could always count on those features being available via their REST API at the same time. If there's anything we can't figure out on our own, the Fastly knowledge base and Support team are always there for us to consult. The extremely high ease-of-use and quality of support would be less valuable if Fastly weren't the highest performing CDN we've ever worked with. We've done a handful of performance comparisons with other CDNs, and Fastly has always come out ahead.

great performance and availability of applications, websites, databases

Fastly gives top-notch security over our SSDN application as we carry out its deployment specified by our clients. It provides enhanced proxy security features that will mask all our activities from other legitimate traffic. It allows me to establish rules in regards to my customer needs and helps prevent vulnerabilities & maintaining the overall security posture. It also effectively allows me to filter the web traffic so that I can mitigate the potential application layer attacks such as cross-site scripting, SQL injection and other HHTP protocol violations.
