Availability

Uptime SLA

Progress Software’s goal for the production Sitefinity websites hosted in Sitefinity Cloud is to be available 99.9% of the time in any given monthly billing period, and Progress Software exercises commercially reasonable efforts toward this goal. Monthly availability of the production Sitefinity websites hosted in Sitefinity Cloud is calculated by subtracting from 1 the total minutes, in which the production Sitefinity website hosted in Sitefinity Cloud has returned HTTP status code 5XX in response to a web request to this website (“Downtime Minutes”) for the billing month divided by 43829.1 (the average number of minutes in any given month).

  • Incident notifications over email - send an automated email to a set of customer defined email addresses that notifies when an incident has been detected/resolved.
  • Incident notifications for customer owned PagerDuty accounts - in addition to the existing functionality to send emails to customers when there is an availability incident, we have added support for notifications to customer owned PagerDuty accounts.

On-Duty team

A team of specially trained engineers that is on-call 24x7 and can respond to availability and security incidents within minutes to diagnose and resolve the issues, as well as provide RCA and steps for future prevention, according to the required SLA.

Zero-downtime deployments

Sitefinity Cloud leverages Azure DevOps for CI/CD automation, with source control and versioning, prebuilt pipelines for code promotion, staging and production environments, a deployment dashboard and comprehensive logs for troubleshooting and detailed analysis. The build pipeline has a tight approval process and failsafe features for zero-downtime deployments.

Multi-region failover

Multi-region failover provides a robust disaster recovery option, ensuring against critical incidents and infrastructure outage, and enabling the Sitefinity Cloud on-call team to restore service availability within up to 30 min. in case of regional disaster with the Azure data center.
For more information about this feature, see Multi-region failover.
