   The headline says it all. You can build fundamentally different, better experiences for your users if the platform you build them on gets data to your users an order of magnitude faster. Don't take my word for it, try it for yourself. https://www.fastly.com/blog/be-among-the-first-to-try-the-greatest-kv-store-ever-made

     @alexhammy I think it's a lot more like if McDonald's named their french fries "french fries", which... they do. It's very common for web services under a brand to all be named literally for what they are.

     @anildash it's the generic name for a class of software. It's like if the people at Kleenex had settled on Facial Tissue as their brand name.
