Today, we are excited to announce the global availability of Salesforce Functions. Now, customers can deploy their custom, high-compute, business logic code built using Salesforce Functions to the region of their choice. This makes it easier than ever for development teams to meet their security and regulatory requirements as they build applications that power customer experiences and focus on delivering business value — all while staying within the Salesforce trust boundary.
With this update, developers will experience decreased latency. Now, your workloads can connect to a region outside the United States and be processed in that same region of choice. There will be no change to the developer experience of Salesforce Functions itself.
We will be supporting the following regions for Salesforce Functions.
| Name | Location | Availability |
|---|---|---|
| Virginia | Virginia, United States | Current (default) |
| Dublin | Dublin, Ireland | January 2023 |
| Frankfurt | Frankfurt, Germany | January 2023 |
| Oregon | Oregon, United States | January 2023 |
| Sydney | Sydney, Australia | January 2023 |
| Tokyo | Tokyo, Japan | January 2023 |
Please note that Salesforce Functions is already interoperable with Hyperforce and Government Cloud Plus orgs. Global availability allows you to now run functions in these products within the geographic region of your choice.
Get started today
We are excited to extend the available regions for Salesforce Functions so customers can leverage our platform to deliver solutions and increase their time to value while maintaining regulatory requirements. You can even get started without a license using our local development experience to auto-connect to your scratch or sandbox orgs. Please contact your account executive to get started with Salesforce Functions in a region of your choice.
