Case Study: Brad's Deals achieves faster load times and stronger security with Fastly

Brad's Deals - Customer Case Study

Brad’s Deals, an online shopping platform serving 5.5 million users each month, needed to deliver fresh content, rich images, and fast page loads while keeping up with growing traffic and security demands. To meet those expectations, the company partnered with Fastly and used Fastly’s CDN, Compute, Image Optimizer, KV Store, and Next-Gen WAF to move more of its stack to the edge.

With Fastly, Brad’s Deals saw major performance and efficiency gains: website speed improved, image bandwidth in emails dropped by 50%, and redirect-and-landing times were cut to 50 milliseconds, a 95% improvement. Fastly’s edge-based security also helped automatically block bots and quickly patch new vulnerabilities, giving Brad’s Deals faster, safer experiences for users and more time to focus on finding great deals.
