Fastly offers everything you need from a modern CDN, from effortless scale and built-in security to programmable control and full visibility.
S3 compatible, zero egress, zero fuss
Fastly Object Storage
It works just like the storage you’re used to today but without the hassle and no egress.
Benefits
Direct access to all of your data at the edge with zero egress fees.
You’re already storing your large library of files somewhere - but it’s costly and management is complex. We make it easy to migrate to Fastly Object Storage and you can use all the tools and code you use today. It just won’t break your budget.
Durable
Fastly Object Storage is engineered for resilience, scale, and operational efficiency. Its intelligent and self-healing approach to data distribution is designed to provide 99.999999999% (11 9’s) data durability.
Compatible
Fastly Object Storage operates as a drop-in replacement for the S3 API, allowing developers to access large files from Fastly services in a familiar footprint that already works with existing code.
Cost-effective
Simplify vendor management and lower total cost of ownership for cloud storage with affordable storage costs and zero egress fees. Fastly Object Storage is available for self-purchase so devs can get started quickly.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Fastly Object Storage?
Fastly Object Storage is an S3-compatible object storage service designed to work seamlessly with Fastly's edge cloud platform. It enables teams to store and access large files using familiar tools, APIs, and workflows while reducing operational complexity.
Because it integrates directly with Compute, CDN, and Fastly's global network, organizations can bring data storage closer to applications and users while simplifying their infrastructure stack.

What is zero egress?
Zero egress means Fastly does not charge fees for data transferred or retrieved out of Fastly Object Storage when routing that traffic within the Fastly network to our Compute or CDN layers. Unlike many cloud storage providers that charge separately for outbound data transfer, Fastly Object Storage includes egress at no additional cost.
Why does storing data closer to the edge matter?
Applications perform best when data is located closer to where it is consumed. By integrating object storage with Fastly's global edge platform, organizations can reduce unnecessary data movement, improve application responsiveness, and simplify content delivery architectures.
How can Fastly Object Storage support AI and machine learning workloads?
AI applications require scalable, accessible data storage for training datasets, model artifacts, generated content, and inference workloads. Fastly Object Storage provides durable object based storage that can serve as a foundation for modern AI architectures.
When combined with AI Accelerator and Compute, organizations can build AI-powered experiences that reduce latency while maintaining efficient access to the data required by models and applications.
