Introduction

Definitions
The following definitions shall apply for purposes of this Service Level Agreement:
A «Service Credit» is a monetary credit that we may imburse an eligible account. Service Credits are calculated as a percentage of the total charges paid by you (excluding one-time payments such as upfront payments) for a specific Service or product. The amount and method of calculation of a Service Credit is described in connection with each Service.
«Unavailable» and «Unavailability» means that your deployed Services (compute, network, storage or similar Services) does not respond to API or external network requests, despite proper configuration.
«Region» means a particular physical data center location where the affected Service exists.
«Region Unavailability» means that more than one Availability Zone in which you are running a Service, within the same Region, is Unavailable to you. If the affected Service does not offer more than one Availability Zone, and that Availability Zone is Unavailable, the region is also defined as unavailable.
«Monthly Availability» means a monthly availability percentage calculated on a per Customer, per Region basis, for a given calendar month, minus any Unavailability due to accounced maintenance windows.
