Compute
AI Accelerator Beta
Fastly AI Accelerator reduces API calls and bills with intelligent, semantic caching. For this initial beta release, we are starting with OpenAI’s ChatGPT text API. Your AI requests can be faster and more efficient — by just changing a single line of code.
Simplified Compute Service Creation
This new workflow for creating Compute services lets developers step through a wizard-style experience to set up and configure their new service, select a basic language starter kit for their new service, add and configure a custom domain and TLS, and sync their new service to their local machine with a single command.
Security
Bot Management
Stop bots, not innovation. Fastly Bot Management eliminates fraud and abuse from automated attacks so you can focus on delivering amazing customer experiences.
Managed Security Service Time to Notify SLA Update
This update to Fastly’s Managed Security Service guarantees notification for critical impacts to availability. It ensures customers get notified within 30 minutes of Fastly detecting a critical incident, an industry-leading commitment.
Observability
Sustainability Dashboard Beta
This dashboard provides visibility and transparency of Fastly’s carbon emission and network energy consumption through data visualizations, including renewable power - amount of renewable power consumed by Fastly infrastructure; non-renewable power - amount of non-renewable power consumed by Fastly infrastructure; total power - sum of renewable and non-renewable power; carbon - amount of carbon emissions measured in Tonnes (T); and bandwidth - total bytes delivered.
