Our Hosting Service Level Agreement (SLA)

We understand how critical it is that your hosting services stay up and running. We've taken great care in architecting our network and infrastructure from the ground up to produce the highest availability. Power systems, Environmental systems, Network Upstream providers, and Network equipment all have redundancy built-in. As such, we can provide with confidence a guarantee to you on such service availability.

Network Availability

We guarantee our network will be up and available 100% of the time, excluding special scheduled maintenance periods. In the event of a network outage, we will credit the customer 1% of their monthly service fee for every minute of downtime incurred, up-to, but not exceeding 50% of one monthly payment. Network uptime is comprised of the proper functioning and availability of network related infrastructure including upstream peering connectivity, routers, switches, fiber and Ethernet cabling, and firewalls. Network downtime exists if the server is unable to transmit or receive data through our network, and a notification is initiated by the customer for the incident via a phone, email, or our web-based ticketing system.

Infrastructure Availability

We guarantee that our critical environmental systems, including power and HVAC, will be available 100% of the time, excluding special scheduled maintenance periods. In the event of an infrastructure outage, we will credit the customer 1% of their monthly service fee for every minute of downtime incurred, up-to, but not exceeding 50% of one monthly payment. Infrastructure uptime is comprised of the proper functioning and availability of all power and HVAC equipment, including UPS systems, stand-by Generators, power distribution systems, power cabling, and cooling systems required to maintain operational temperatures of your equipment. Infrastructure downtime exists if the server is shut down due to power or heat issues, and a notification is initiated by the customer for the incident via a phone, email, or our web-based ticketing system.

Server & Equipment Availability

We guarantee that the Ayera owned and operated servers, load balancers, and other equipment your sites & applications reside on will be available 100% of the time, excluding normal scheduled maintenance periods. In the event of a server or equipment outage, we will credit the customer 1% of their monthly service fee for every minute of downtime incurred, up-to, but not exceeding 50% of one monthly payment of services residing on the equipment involved in the outage. Server & Equipment uptime is comprised of the proper functioning and availability of all critical components, including power supplies, processors, RAM, hard drives, motherboards, NIC cards, and other related components. Server & Equipment downtime exists if the equipment is shut down due to component failures, and a notification is initiated by the customer for the incident via a phone, email, or our web-based ticketing system.

Services and software running on your server is not included in the SLA uptime guarantees.
