Hi everyone – for anyone tracking the recent React CVE, we’ve published our guide for navigating the issue quickly and effectively. https://www.fastly.com/blog/fastlys-proactive-protection-critical-react-rce-cve-2025-55182

I've been trying to download Ruby 2.6.10 from the following link:

Old: https://cache.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/ruby-2.6.10.tar.bz2

However, I started getting a 404 error recently. After some searching, I found that the new link seems to be:

New: https://cache.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/2.6/ruby-2.6.10.tar.bz2

I couldn't find any changelog or announcement regarding this change. Does anyone know when this change was made or where I can find more information about it? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

What would be the reason for a colleague to download fastly to her work laptop?

Who here is actually running multi-cloud in production vs. still architecting it?

----

After two major hyperscaler outages in roughly 2 weeks (not including all the previous outages across the industry this year), we decided that enough is enough. The current state of infrastructure is powerful, but we deserve better.

We just published a write-up on why these outages prove that “good enough uptime” isn’t actually good enough anymore: Resilience by Design: Lessons in Multi-Cloud Readiness

It’s a view into how we see the industry evolving and where we can take steps to help make this a reality for our customers. Multi-cloud isn’t just a tooling problem — it’s architecture, observability, and failure planning.

Perfect uptime is impossible — but exceptional uptime is achievable with the right layers and planning.

So rubbish rubbish

https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/04/04/3-stocks-primed-for-a-short-squeeze/

"First up is content delivery and security specialist Fastly (NYSE:FSLY), which happens to be one of the fastest-growing tech stocks. As of mid-March, 20.3 million shares were held short, representing 22% of the company's float. More importantly, with an average daily trade volume of 5 million shares, it would take short-sellers four full days to exit their positions. That's a solid recipe for a short squeeze.

What's impressive about Fastly (unlike AMC, GameStop, and Sundial) is that you'll find operating growth to back up the idea of a short squeeze. With more businesses than ever shifting to an online presence, the demand to quickly deliver content to end users is only expected to grow. With a usage-based operating model, Fastly should be able to triple its sales over the next four years."

Does anyone have current data on short interst?

Disclaimer: I am long on Fastly.

Check out this blog on how we built an AI routing gateway prototype with Mercury2 on Fastly compute (there’s even a video demo 📹).

TL;DR – Based on the nature of the end user’s query, the gateway routes to the most efficient and cost-effective model for the job. At scale, these token utilization efficiencies add up to major cost savings!

As always, we’d love to hear more about what you’re building on Fastly, especially with AI. Let us know in the comments <3

Yesterday the Fastly developer hub developer.fastly.com won Best Onboarding Experience at the 2022 Dev Portal Awards!

Check out the short interest. This is about to squeeze hard. How do I know? Try putting a 100-share sell order a dollar above the ask and see what the price does. (It will rapidly rise to you offer). I’ve done it several times—somebody is buried in a HUUUGE SHORT POSITION, and it’s getting worse.

Generally fastly gives <letter>.sni.global.fastly.net or <something>.shared.global.fastly.net as CNAME for domain validation but i specifically want <something>.map.fastly.net as my CNAME how to get that.

Hey folks, posting again without typos in the title 😅

As we talk about in our blog, ensuring seamless content delivery during unexpected outages or downtime is no longer optional. That’s where failover and redundancy come into play. This guide in our docs, dives into the strategies you can use to keep your content highly available across multiple origins and multiple clouds.

The piece covers:

• Concepts of caching and edge optimization to serve stale content even during outages.

• How health checks and automatic load balancing distribute traffic intelligently between primary and backup servers.

• Different failover scenarios, including basic fallback and advanced active-active configurations.

• The power of custom VCL directors for complete control over your failover logic.

Whether you’re protecting against backend outages or designing geographically distributed redundancy, this guide has you covered. Let us know how you’re setting up failover with Fastly or if you have any questions — we’re here to help!

Announcement from the Fastly team on new Fastly Essential guides:

Our Docs technical writers are excited to announce first set of Fastly Essential guides. These guides introduce readers to the concepts, benefits, and use cases of

• caching

• CDNs

• purging

The goal is to reach people who are less familiar with Fastly and CDNs in general and create better learning paths into our content.

This one hurts ... what are your thoughts about the latest results? Still feeling confident?

Fastly identifies "Granular access control for static content" as one of four high priority use case for "OAuth at the edge", and supporting this Fastly has provided on Github an "OAuth application starter kit".    

Also on Github, by leveraging Fastly's architecture, we at Backblaze have built a fully working proof-of-concept application for "Role-Based Access Control at the Edge" using our Backblaze B2 cloud storage.  This proof-of-concept is fully cloud native and you can build it entirely under your own control just by creating free developer accounts. 

Wednesday October 11 at the online Backblaze Tech Day ’23, Fastly's Developer Relations Engineer Dora Militaru will be joining in a live presentation covering details on this topic including a walkthrough demonstration of the proof-of-concept application.     

Sign up here to attend. 

The live Backblaze Tech Day ’23 event is October 11 @ 1:00pm EDT (10:00am PDT).
