.storage SLA Compliance

TLD SLA Compliance Metrics

Spec 10

DNS

Period	Availability	RTT Compliance	RTT p50	RTT p95	Checks
24h	100%	100%	29ms	42ms	176
7d	100%	100%	30ms	42ms	932
30d	100%	100%	30ms	87ms	5236

RDAP

Period	Availability	RTT Compliance	RTT p50	RTT p95	Checks
24h	100%	100%	408ms	452ms	72
7d	100%	100%	409ms	461ms	344
30d	99.85%	99.85%	409ms	495ms	1992

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%	59ms	79ms	76
7d	99.52%	60ms	152ms	416
30d	99.79%	58ms	105ms	2348

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