.bcg SLA Compliance

TLD SLA Compliance Metrics

Spec 10

DNS

Period	Availability	RTT Compliance	RTT p50	RTT p95	Checks
24h	100%	100%	71ms	231ms	72
7d	100%	100%	72ms	264ms	1088
30d	93.81%	93.81%	73ms	264ms	1600

Period	Availability	RTT Compliance	RTT p50	RTT p95	Checks
24h	No data available

30d	100%	100%	169ms	178ms	12

DNSSEC Validation Metrics

Registry Agreement Spec 6

DNSSEC is required by the Registry Agreement (Specification 6) but is not part of the Spec 10 SLA. We monitor DNSSEC validation independently.

Period	Validation Rate	RTT p50	RTT p95	Checks
24h	100%	141ms	155ms	6
7d	100%	136ms	154ms	108
30d	100%	137ms	154ms	152

Unlike Spec 10 services, DNSSEC has no formal availability SLA. Thresholds shown are operational guidelines.
