ZedGi Lets Serverless Apps Connect to Redis, Postgres, and MySQL via HTTPS
ZedGi is a TCP-to-HTTPS proxy service that enables serverless and edge runtimes to connect to traditional databases such as Redis, Postgres, and MySQL without requiring raw TCP socket access. Many popular runtimes like Cloudflare Workers and Vercel Edge Functions block direct TCP connections, forcing developers into workarounds such as provider-specific databases or custom proxy backends. ZedGi addresses this by acting as a gateway that receives signed HTTPS requests from an application, routes them through a bridge node, executes the database command, and returns the result as JSON. The service supports TypeScript, JavaScript, and Python SDKs, as well as a raw HTTP API compatible with languages like Go, PHP, Ruby, and Rust. Database credentials are encrypted on the client side before transmission, and ZedGi stores only service metadata such as host and port, not plaintext passwords.
