Service Level Agreement
Our uptime targets, what counts as downtime, and the credits you get if we fall short.
Uptime targets by plan
"Uptime" is measured per calendar month, per region, on the Glixy control plane and customer-assigned compute. Our 90-day rolling number is published live at status.glixy.com.
- Starter: best-effort, no contractual SLA.
- Growth: 99.9% monthly uptime ("three nines").
- Enterprise: 99.95% standard; 99.99% available with dedicated cluster + multi-region.
Service credit structure
If our actual monthly uptime drops below your committed level, you're entitled to credits as follows. Credits are applied to the next invoice and never expire while your account is active.
- Growth · 99.9% target
- 99.0% – 99.9%: 10% credit
- 95.0% – 98.99%: 25% credit
- Below 95.0%: 50% credit
- Enterprise · 99.95% target
- 99.5% – 99.95%: 15% credit
- 99.0% – 99.49%: 30% credit
- Below 99.0%: 50% credit
- Enterprise · 99.99% target (multi-region)
- 99.9% – 99.99%: 25% credit
- 99.0% – 99.89%: 50% credit
- Below 99.0%: 100% credit (entire monthly invoice)
