Direct RADOS-integration of application

Safespring supports the direct integration of applications onto the RADOS layer, when performed and deployed by Safespring in a controlled manner.

It is not possible for users to directly access this storage layer. The integration will be done by Safespring at professional service-based pricing, and a subsequent maintenance charge will apply. The exact pricing depends on the scope of the project and is therefore evaluated on a case by case basis.

Prerequisites

None.
