99.87% uptime
At Dynamis, we take server uptime very seriously. To help eliminate server downtime,
our server and colocation space is housed at Internap at 1301 Fannin. 1301 Fannin has had continuous uptime
since 1980, is served by 2 power grids, and stores enough diesel fuel in underground tanks to
run for 2 weeks at full power with no outside power feed. Internap uses smart routing technology
to not only ensure 99.99% uptime, but also, to continuously smart-switch to the very best
internet route for each and every website visitor and remote home user.
99.87% uptime probably
sounds like we're up most of the time, and that's true. Basically, that translates
to a total of 12 hours of downtime per year ... vs 8748 hours of uptime
per year.
On the other hand, you might ask why our (or your) server needs to go down for 12 hours per
year. It's usually for good things, actually -- hardware upgrades,
software upgrades -- things you'll be glad we're doing because in most cases they improve
your site's performance or make it possible to increase your site's functionality.
So here's our guarantee:
If our web server downtime exceeds 12 hours total in any calendar year, we'll
reduce your next month's hosting cost by 20% for every 6 hours of downtime beyond
the 12 hours of downtime for the year, up to your monthly hosting cost for
the month the excess downtime is incurred.
