- The page names seven facilities and claims three times average monthly footprint included in egress.
Field notes
The service describes placement across a seven-location mesh rather than customer-selected storage tiers, listing approximate latencies from 4 ms in Amsterdam to 22 ms in Johannesburg. Its commercial model includes egress up to three times the average monthly footprint, then charges €0.01 per additional GB. The page also says access is logged to the byte range and that encryption keys are scoped per tenant, while deeper product access is gated behind a request or account.
