TLD SLA Compliance Metrics

Spec 10

DNS

Period	Availability	RTT Compliance	RTT p50	RTT p95	Checks
24h	100%	100%	32ms	260ms	1088
7d	100%	100%	20ms	302ms	6240
30d	99.92%	99.92%	19ms	971ms	34464

RDAP

Period	Availability	RTT Compliance	RTT p50	RTT p95	Checks
24h	100%	100%	390ms	477ms	40

30d	100%	99.93%	368ms	546ms	1340

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%	45ms	103ms	60
7d	100%	38ms	106ms	360
30d	99.90%	38ms	118ms	2012

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