Fastly, the leading edge cloud platform, helps the world’s most popular digital retailers deliver fast, secure, and scalable online experiences. Through Fastly’s massive, globally distributed platform, retailers are protected from damaging security threats like web application vulnerabilities, DDoS attacks or botnets. The Fastly platform also enables retailers to accelerate all parts of their websites and apps, including dynamic elements like real-time inventory levels or pricing, for more personalised experiences without the negative impact to performance. Businesses trust Fastly to optimise their images dynamically - including cropping, re-formatting, and watermark overlays - directly from the Fastly platform to their customers, dramatically simplifying the image workflow while improving page load speed. By integrating with Fastly, retailers are able to deliver the faster, more tailored experiences their customers crave, resulting in increased conversions. Fastly powers online destinations including Boots UK, Airbnb, MatchesFashion, Deliveroo, Wayfair, Etsy, and La Redoute.
