    one day credit for each hour of non-compliance

  • new VM(s) will be provisioned in less than 200 seconds of the customer submitting the VM provisioning request using the myCP® Control Panel

    one day credit for each non-compliance

  • in case of the currently active individual hypervisor failure for a customer VM(s), the affected customer VM(s) will be hot (live) migrated and restarted on another hypervisor in less than 90 seconds after the platform detection of the hypervisor failure

    one day credit for each non-compliance

  • immediate minimum scalability of 1,000% (10x) of the previous 30 days average purchased cloud capacity will be always available and guaranteed to all CloudServer, DedicatedCloud and FlexCloud customers

  • no cost, no penalty immediate service termination is permitted if over any 30 consecutive day period network downtime exceeds 1% (7 hours), or packet loss from on our network exceeds 5%, or latency from us to our local peers and/or Tier 1 providers exceeds 20 ms, there is a downtime of over 1% (7 hours) of the cloud platform, or there is a downtime of over 24 hours during customer's server repair (only one of these conditions has to be met)

Our SLA is presented as an addendum to our Terms of Service and must be executed by both parties to apply to a client. This page provides an executive summary of the SLA, only; it is not the actual SLA.
