To get a proper SLA you need to pay for SLA.
What SLA google, azure, aws have is useless, some service credit proportional to the outage duration. Totally nothing to cover lost profits or direct damage.
For the last gcloud outage, i think you have to talk to people and APPLY for a credit, obviously very few did that https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20078296 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20078296
- darkcha0s 7y agoWorking with enterprises that actually have individual SLA's with one of the clouds you mentioned, this is not true. You can handle out your own SLA's with certain providers, and not just get "credits." These enterprises have mature enough monitoring solutions to be able to prove to the provider that they didn't hold up on their end. Besides that, every half-way capable solution architect wouldn't move "system critical" software to the cloud, hence reducing "lost profits" or "direct damage". If you're doing that, it's seriously your own fault.
- altmind 7y agogoogle cloud compute clearly states that their free sla benefits come in form of credits https://cloud.google.com/compute/sla https://cloud.google.com/compute/sla amazon ec2 clearly states their sla gives you credits https://aws.amazon.com/compute/sla/ https://aws.amazon.com/compute/sla/ azure compute clearly states they give you credits https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/support/legal/sla/virtual-machines/v1_8/ https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/support/legal/sla/virtual-... wanna better sla - pay up, like i said in the beginning. as the cost of sla is proportional to payout that works like an insurance, not like coercive measure to increase reliability.
- darkcha0s 7y agoDid you skip there part where I said enterprises get separate SLA's from the ones you and I get?
