TLD SLA Compliance Metrics
Spec 10DNS
| Period | Availability | RTT Compliance | RTT p50 | RTT p95 | Checks | TSLAC |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 24h | 100% | 100% | 3.0ms | 15ms | 60 | |
| 7d | 100% | 100% | 3.0ms | 66ms | 2004 | |

DNSSEC Validation Metrics
Registry Agreement Spec 6DNSSEC 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 | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 24h | 100% | 32ms | 33ms | 12 | |
| 7d | 100% | 34ms | 39ms | 206 | |
| 30d | 100% | 36ms | 41ms | 289 |
Unlike Spec 10 services, DNSSEC has no formal availability SLA. Thresholds shown are operational guidelines.
