Fastly integration
Map CDN configurations and origin servers into your service inventory.
What it connects
- Discover all CDN services and their configurations to build a complete view of your content delivery infrastructure.
- Inventory origin servers (backends) across service versions to understand your upstream infrastructure and dependencies.
- Track service activation states and versioning to identify production-deployed configurations.
- Retrieve service creation and update timestamps to monitor infrastructure change history.
What it automates
- Add or remove origin servers to services and automatically validate changes before pushing to production.
- Purge cached content by URL or surrogate key to immediately invalidate outdated assets across your CDN.
- Clone service versions and commit changes to production with built-in safety validation checks.
- Manage IP-based access controls and edge dictionaries to enforce security policies and feature flags without manual Fastly portal interaction.
In practice
- During a DDoS incident, query backends to identify affected origin servers and immediately create ACL rules to block malicious traffic while your team investigates root cause.
- When replacing a legacy origin server, update all backend configurations across services in a single workflow and automatically validate before production activation.
- After deploying new content, purge targeted cache keys from Fastly instead of waiting for TTLs to expire, ensuring users see updates immediately.
- Centralize service configuration audits by syncing all CDN services and backends into Axiom, then run compliance checks to detect unauthorized changes or missing health monitors.
