Customized Management

Playbook

Your operations playbook is a management plan specific to your project. Your Platform Team will work with you to include your business priorities and preferences in your playbook. Your playbook will include project-specific escalation procedures, monitoring needs, and information about planned events benefiting from coordination with your Platform Team such as migrations, launches, and marketing campaigns.

Reports

Your Platform Team will prepare a monthly report made available to you via your dashboard as well as sent to you by Slack or email, as specified in your playbook. The report will highlight trends learned from monitoring in addition to recommendations for optimizing resource usage, reliability, performance, security, and costs.

Service Operations

Monitoring

Your Platform Team will monitor your project's servers and applications using both automated and human monitoring. Automated monitoring ensures fast response times while human monitoring provides insights not possible through automated monitoring in addition to eliminating false positives from automated monitoring. Your team will develop an understanding of your project's usage patterns and will create a customized monitoring strategy for your project.

Via your dashboard, you will be able to view a set of your project's monitoring graphs. Your Platform Team is available to customize the graphs you see and answer questions about the information in the graphs.

Data Retention

We will provide current customers who are in good standing with access to any backup created within the past six (6) months.

Scheduled Maintenance

From time to time, your Platform Team will need to apply upgrades, patches, bug fixes, or perform other maintenance. Additionally, your project's cloud infrastructure provider may also need to perform occasional maintenance. We'll make reasonable efforts to provide you with prior notice of any scheduled maintenance.

Incident Management

If normal service is disrupted, your Platform Team will create an incident management ticket and will communicate with you until normal service is restored. A log of communication, events, and actions will be kept throughout the process. If needed, internal escalation will occur as appropriate until normal service is resolved. Your sign-off will be requested prior to closing the ticket. After resolution, your team will review the incident's root cause and make recommendations as needed to mitigate future incidents.

Change Management

When significant infrastructure changes are required or are requested by you, your Platform Team will create a change management ticket. Your Platform Team will schedule and perform the change, coordinating and communicating with you as appropriate. For changes requested by you, your sign-off will be requested prior to closing the ticket.

Network Uptime

99.99%

Exclusions to Network Uptime SLA

Scheduled Maintenance

Your Platform Team or cloud infrastructure providers will occasionally need to apply upgrades, patches, bug fixes, or perform other maintenance. We will make all reasonable efforts to notify you in advance and minimize downtime. Downtime resulting from scheduled maintenance is not eligible for SLA credits.

Legal Action

In the event of a legal order compelling us to suspend or restrict access to your project, any resulting downtime is not eligible for SLA credits.

Malicious attack

Guarantees regarding downtime cannot be made in the case of a malicious attack. Your Platform Team will take all reasonable measures to mitigate impacts of the attack and will coordinate mitigations with you and your developers according to your project's operations playbook. Downtime resulting from malicious attacks is not eligible for SLA credits.

Remedy

For downtime eligible for SLA credits, your account can receive service credits in the amount of 10x the length of time that passed over and above the time stated in the SLA.

Service Credit Policies

Service credit requests must be submitted to your Platform Team within ten (10) business days of the downtime event.

The total of service credits issued for downtime in a given month will not exceed that month's service fees.

Only one service credit will be issued for each incident. For example, if multiple issues occur at once, the service credit will be issued to only the root cause.

Accounts that are past due or have unresolved AUP violations are not eligible to receive service credits.
