Image Optimizer
Last updated September 25, 2020
The Fastly Image Optimizer (Fastly IO) is a real-time image transformation and optimization service that caches and serves pixel-optimized, bandwidth-efficient images requested from your origin server. Fastly IO specifically supports a variety of input and output image formats.
Image transformation and optimization
When an image is requested from your origin server, Fastly IO can perform transformation tasks before serving and caching the optimized version. Image transformations can be applied programmatically and through dynamic URLs in real-time. You can make images responsive so they automatically adjust to fit the size of the screen viewing the content. As a result, image pre-processing can be offloaded to the edge. Multiple copies of the images, each appropriately sized for different devices, are served from cache instead, which allows you to reduce the number of requests to your origin.
Debugging and troubleshooting
To aid in debugging when serving images, special HTTP headers will be present in a response when an image is requested. The specific header included depends on the response's result. For successful transformations and optimizations, the HTTP header returned provides general information that allows you to compare image dimensions, file sizes, and formats. Additional HTTP headers are included for source image issues that aren't fatal enough to cause an error but could still be problematic, as well as transformations and optimizations that fail outright.
Billing
Billing for Fastly IO is based on the number of monthly image requests that are processed and delivered. When using the animated GIF to video functionality, each image frame delivered as video is counted as an optimized image request.
