Make the Internet (Magento) Faster with Fastly

We’ve all heard it before, “The speed at which your content loads is critical — it can determine whether or not customers stick around to browse or shop on your site or mobile app.”

Enter Fastly. The solution provided for this challenge, based on Varnish, is Fastly’s next-generation CDN, built to accelerate Magento powered stores by delivering content and logic to the edge, closer to shoppers, for a better browsing and online shopping experience.
