With Seeds, you get full control over operating system, applications, and configurations, while we take care of the underlying infrastructure.
How can I use Seeds?
Seeds provide the ideal infrastructure for a wide variety of use cases. They can be flexibly scaled and adapted to your specific requirements, whether for small projects or complex enterprise applications.
If you want to integrate infrastructure directly via API, you can find more details on the dataforest Public API page.

What are the benefits of the Cloud?
The Cloud offers numerous benefits such as cost savings (no investment in hardware), flexibility (pay-as-you-grow), scalability (easy adjustment to growing requirements), and increased security (physical unauthorized access in high-security data centers is practically impossible compared to company-owned server rooms).
