We're excited to announce that all Cosmic JS API endpoints (REST and GraphQL) are now powered by the Fastly global CDN. You should now notice huge performance gains on your Bucket API endpoints. For example, if a large endpoint used to take 400ms it is now clocking in under 20ms!

What is Fastly? Fastly is the leading global CDN cache layer provider that powers some of the most highly-trafficked websites on the internet. The New York Times, Airbnb, and more choose Fastly because of their global CDN of over 60 high-powered point of presence servers (POPs). These POPs are distributed closest to your users so they can get your content as fast as possible. This also shields your cached content from any issues caused by the origin infrastructure.

From the Fastly Network Map page, "we’ve focused our efforts on placing fewer, more powerful POPs at strategic locations around the world."
