Telnyx Storage is distributed cloud object storage evolved — lower cost, lower latency, and S3-compatible APIs for easy migration.
By Odhran Reidy
We're excited to announce Telnyx Cloud Storage: cloud object storage powered by distributed infrastructure for lower costs and lower latency. Our S3-compatible APIs will help you migrate, and we'll never charge egress fees, so you can scale your apps and experiences with confidence.
Update November 8, 2022: Telnyx Cloud Storage is now available for you to try for free. Simply log into your Mission Control Portal account and start building on more affordable, low-latency object storage.
Cloud object storage has quickly become a cornerstone of the web with apps and services relying on S3 or a comparable service from other cloud giants.
We believe the next generation of connected experiences will outgrow the storage services provided by cloud giants. Augmented reality and virtual reality (AR/VR), autonomous vehicles, and large 8K content delivery will not just require high bandwidth, but low latency to serve objects and feed edge computation and decision making.
Alongside latency problems, the large file sizes at play in content-rich experiences mean that high per-GB storage costs and egress fees will become unsustainable for anyone looking to build an experience with large content demands.
Storing objects with Telnyx Cloud Storage costs $0.006 per GiB, per month. That's more than a 60% cost saving over S3's standard entry-level storage costs. We'll never charge egress fees, so you can export your data without worry. Plus, our operations costs are lower than S3's so you can build, test, and scale your applications for less.

We're building Telnyx Cloud Storage by deploying modern, distributed infrastructure around the US. By storing objects closer to end-users, Telnyx Cloud Storage customers can access and serve their objects to end-users faster, shaving milliseconds off latency.
To illustrate how low latency can transform an end-user's experience and enable low-latency, content-rich use cases, let's use an example. In autonomous driving applications serving small files to vehicles moving at highway speeds, 80 milliseconds of latency (typically seen in centralized cloud storage services) means vehicles will move four feet between requesting and receiving a response. Cutting that latency to 5 milliseconds with edge data centers means those same vehicles will move less than four inches between request and response. Reducing latency in object retrieval could enable latency-sensitive applications like this one to run almost entirely in the cloud.
Telnyx APIs to store, manage, and access objects are fully compatible with S3, so you can simply point your S3-centric applications and services at Telnyx Storage API endpoints. No more wasted development cycles during painstaking migrations.
Our S3-compatible API supports native encryption, so you can encrypt objects when adding them to a Telnyx Storage bucket.
Telnyx Cloud Storage is for businesses that are building backup and restore applications, autonomous vehicles, 8K content delivery, or any field that requires data storage at low cost, with low latency.
