TLD SLA Compliance Metrics
Spec 10DNS
| Period | Availability | RTT Compliance | RTT p50 | RTT p95 | Checks | TSLAC |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 24h | 100% | 100% | 72ms | 227ms | 32 | |
| 7d | 98.99% | 98.99% | 70ms | 241ms | 792 | |
| 30d | 87.84% | 87.84% | 72ms | 241ms | 1082 |
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% | 141ms | 156ms | 6 | |
| 7d | 100% | 136ms | 153ms | 214 | |
| 30d | 100% | 137ms | 153ms | 291 |
Unlike Spec 10 services, DNSSEC has no formal availability SLA. Thresholds shown are operational guidelines.
