Get answers to common questions about the RAD platform.
RAD blueprints are implemented using terraform. Through a discovery process we can work with your team to map current resources to required or existing RAD blueprints. This allows you to gradually transition to a RAD-managed platform without disrupting your operations. The platform supports hybrid approaches where some resources are managed by RAD while others continue to be managed through your existing processes.
RAD blueprints are deployed using OpenTofu, a cloud agnostic deployment platform that supports terraform. As a result, RAD supports public cloud platforms such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform, as well as on-premise environments through VMware and OpenStack. We can support our customers and partners in developing blueprints for additional providers and technologies on request.
RAD implements security and compliance through multiple layers: pre-configured blueprints with security best practices, policy-as-code enforcement during deployment, continuous compliance monitoring, and automated remediation of drift. RAD modules can be designed to include pre-built compliance frameworks for common standards like SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI DSS, and GDPR. These frameworks can be applied to your platform modules with minimal configuration effort.
Our blueprints are fully customizable. You can modify parameters, add or remove components, and adapt the blueprints to your specific requirements. You can also create your own blueprints from scratch or clone and modify existing ones. You can implement customizations to maintain security and compliance controls.
Our enterprise pricing is based on a usage based credit system, where credits purchased are redeemed against platform deployments. We also offer special pricing for cloud service providers and educational institutions that over RAD as a service to their clients. For more information, please contact us.
All our clients receive support through email and chat. Enterprise customers can also benefit from dedicated support engineers and regular check-ins. We also offer professional services for implementation, training, and custom module development.
