EDGE COMPUTE

Functions

Deploy containerized code to the edge with one command. Any language, any runtime, bindings to storage and the Telnyx API.

WHY TELNYX

Not just compute. A platform.

Most edge compute platforms run your code and stop. You wire up storage, state, inference, and telephony from separate vendors. Functions runs as containers on infrastructure Telnyx owns and operates. KV, Stateful Actors, Object Storage, and Inference are connected through bindings, not API calls.

FEATURES

Everything you need to ship. Nothing you don't.

Write a server. Run telnyx-edge ship. Get a public URL.

  • Platform architecture

    Functions is the compute entry point. KV, Stateful Actors, Object Storage, Inference, and the Telnyx API are all on the same owned infrastructure, connected through bindings.

  • Any runtime, any language

    Functions run as containers, not V8 isolates. TypeScript, Go, Python, Java, Rust, or any runtime that runs in a container. Use any package, any system library, any framework. No sandbox limitations.

  • Zero-credential bindings

    Access KV, Stateful Actors, Object Storage, and Inference through bindings, not API calls. No credentials in your code, no auth headers, no secret rotation. The platform wires services together at the infrastructure layer.

  • Global edge distribution

    Deploy once, run at every edge site. The platform handles routing to the nearest PoP automatically. No multi-region config, no DNS management, no cold-start regions. Your code is everywhere your users are.

  • Automatic TLS and custom domains

    Every function gets a public URL with TLS by default. Bring your own domain and upload your own PEM certificate. The platform handles routing, you control the certificate chain, CA, and rotation schedule.

  • Pre-authenticated telecom access

    A built-in binding connects to the Telnyx Voice and Messaging API. Make calls, send messages, and build voice agents from inside a function without managing API keys. Telecom is a function call, not an integration project.

HOW IT WORKS

Ship in three steps

Write a server in any language, ship it with one command, get a live URL. Bindings to KV, Storage, and the Telnyx API are pre-authenticated.

Write a server

# server.ts
import { createServer } from 'http';

createServer((req, res) => {
  res.end('Hello from the edge');
}).listen(3000);

Ship it

$ telnyx-edge ship

  Building container...
  Deploying to 17 edge sites...
  Provisioning TLS...
  Done.

Get a URL

$ curl https://my-function.telnyx.app

  Hello from the edge
CUSTOM DOMAINS

Serve Edge Compute Functions from your own domain.

Most serverless platforms auto-provision TLS and give you no control over the certificate chain. Custom domains let you bring your own PEM certificate, choose your CA, and manage your own rotation schedule.

  • Bring your own certificate

    Upload a PEM-encoded certificate and private key. Any CA, any key size, any chain length. Stored encrypted with AES-GCM.

  • One-time DNS verification

    Prove domain ownership with a single TXT record. No re-verification when you rotate certificates.

  • Zero-downtime routing

    Your custom domain and the default telnyxcompute.com URL serve traffic simultaneously. Migrate at your own pace.

  • Up to 25 domains per org

    Point multiple domains at the same function. No per-function restriction.

FAQ

Telnyx Functions is a containerized edge compute platform. You write a server in any language, run telnyx-edge ship, and get a public URL. Functions runs on infrastructure Telnyx owns and operates, co-located with our carrier network and GPU clusters.
