App Functions
Overview
App developers can use the App Framework to upload serverless functions that run on Contentful infrastructure in response to App Events and App Actions. To learn more about App Functions, see our developer documentation.
Benefits
App Functions eliminate enterprise barriers to building backend apps. They reduce the total cost of ownership (TCO) for running custom logic. Compared to a server-based execution model, customers save on provisioning, maintenance, and scaling expenses, while gaining operational efficiency, reliability, and faster time to value and market.
Developers adapting Contentful to suit their business logic and content computation needs can benefit from App Functions. Solution partners can leverage the platform flexibility to implement value-added solutions while reducing operational costs. Technology partners can showcase how their technologies integrate seamlessly with Contentful.
