Fastly adds sub-second log queries for live event CDN monitoring
Fastly announced a solution for real-time CDN monitoring for live events using its platform in conjunction with Bronto. This integration allows for sub-second log queries, 12 months of log retention, and claims to reduce logging costs by 50%. The feature is designed to enhance monitoring capabilities for time-sensitive live streaming content.
Key Takeaways
- Fastly’s Bronto integration supports sub-second log queries for live event monitoring.
- The setup includes 12 months of log retention for CDN logs.
- Fastly says the approach can cut logging costs by 50%.
- The feature is aimed at time-sensitive live streaming content and monitoring.
Why It Matters
For live streaming operators, the immediate value is faster visibility into CDN behavior while an event is still running, plus longer retention for post-event analysis. Fastly is tying that monitoring layer to Bronto, with a cost claim of 50% lower logging spend and sub-second queries on retained data. In a streaming stack where timing issues can be hard to diagnose after the fact, the combination of real-time queries and 12 months of retention is the main operational signal. What to watch next is whether Fastly provides any concrete usage details or customer examples for live events using this setup.
