Smarter Data Migration: Move Less, Save More with Fastly

Fastly's On-Demand Migration for Object Storage provides a solution to the challenges of moving large datasets between cloud storage providers by enabling a flexible, cost-efficient approach that avoids the high costs associated with bulk data transfers. Instead of transferring all data at once, this service allows migration to occur upon the first request for an object, using a stateless, URL-driven method to transfer only the actively accessed files, significantly reducing egress fees and storage costs. This approach was successfully implemented by a leading streaming platform to "lazy load" images and manage new user uploads without incurring the expense and delay of a complete library migration, while also leveraging Fastly Bot Management to prevent unnecessary migrations. The service's versatility extends to migrations from any publicly accessible source, offering businesses an innovative way to manage their digital assets efficiently.
