Its straightforward API is exposed via HTTP, similar to cloud image processing services like [Imgix](http://www.imgix.com/) and [Cloudinary](http://cloudinary.com/). Glide leverages powerful libraries like [Intervention Image](http://image.intervention.io/) (for image handling and manipulation) and [Flysystem](http://flysystem.thephpleague.com/) (for file system abstraction).
