Twilio serverless offering for building apps that scale automatically without managing the backend

Main information

Twilio Functions replaces your need to find hosting or stand up a server to serve TwiML or any other HTTP-based responses. With Functions, you no longer have to worry about maintaining or scaling web infrastructure - it's all managed seamlessly by Twilio, scaling with your use case. Typical use cases include manipulating voice calls, serving up tokens for our mobile SDKs, or invoking the Twilio REST API in response to an event such as an inbound SMS. Companies such as Netflix and airbnb used Twilio in their serverless stack.
