How many databases do you use? What components need database access?

We require one database, which contains all the user data as well as most of the program settings. Nearly all the SphereShield components require access to it and use it to share information between
the different components.

The only component that doesn’t require DB access is the Authentication extender, which is only deployed where dedicated SphereShield credentials are used to sign into SfB, instead of AD ones.
