Fastly is more sophisticated than the general CDN it supports accelerating both dynamic and static content.

To configure.

  1. Plug in the IP address of your Discourse web server in “Server Address”
  2. Plug in your desired domain name in “Domain name”
  3. Point your DNS CNAME for your domain at global.prod.fastly.net per: http://docs.fastly.com/guides/getting-started/cname-instructions-for-most-providers

That is it you should be done, no changes needed on Discourse side.
