Vonage Cloud Runtime features
Cloud Runtime includes a robust feature set to create communications API projects tailored to your needs – and it’s all hosted securely by Vonage, removing the cost and hassle of managing a separate platform.

Serverless core
Computing
On-demand availability of computing resources. This allows users to access computing power, storage and databases without the need to maintain physical data centres and servers. Includes instance sizing.Number of deployed instances
The maximum number of application instances that can run simultaneously on the platform.Request rate limits
The maximum number of requests a customer can make per second. This measures the interval between requests from each IP address, with requests counted per account.
DNS white labelling
Feature allows for consistent branding in communications by using a custom DNS.Cross-regional failover
This provides resiliency by switching traffic to a secondary region in case of failure, which ensures disaster recovery through asynchronous replication across different infrastructure regions.Secrets management
Users can inject sensitive data (e.g. passwords) into projects securely without creating vulnerabilities.Application logs
Ability to view and check all logs produced by applications.Metrics
Ability to expose standard Prometheus metrics and use managed Grafana to define custom analytics dashboards and alerts (coming late 2024).Regionalisation
This ensures that data-at-rest remains physically within a specified geographical area. Services available in the U.S., APAC and EU.Debugger
Ability to run local debug sessions securely connected to the cloud.Local developer experience
Ability to develop applications on a local machine.Managed services and service
Key-value store (capacity MB)
Key-value storage accessible via API, supporting primary data structures like key-value pairs and hash tables.Queuing
Feature allows users to place serialised messages onto a reliable queue for asynchronous service-to-service communications. This ensures fair usage and manages bandwidth, timing and buffer space.Scheduler (number of scheduled jobs)
Distributed scheduler available through API for jobs execution.Database management - Redis
Provision-managed Redis database, accessible directly by the user or through the application. Learn moreAsset storage
Centralised storage for cloud assets such as images, videos and large files – accessible via SDK and SFTP gateway.Dedicated support
