This is the most common deployment of bitdrift’s mobile observability solution. bitdrift operates the full backend stack, including ingestion, processing, indexing, storage, scaling, and upgrades. Telemetry data is stored in bitdrift-managed cloud storage.Best For

But all telemetry data at rest is written directly to storage that you control.Best For
