Is 5 Nines Enough? DATAPROBE on Network Reliability
Telecom giants like CenturyLink now demand "six nines" (99.9999%) uptime - where just 1 minute of downtime can cost $25K. Is your SLA at risk? Discover how Dataprobe's power management solutions can help you meet and exceed critical uptime requirements.
As reported in Light Reading, US telecom giant CenturyLink is aiming to improve its offering by guaranteeing customers “six nines” reliability rather than the “five nines” that has traditionally featured in telco service level agreements (SLAs).
James Feger, CenturyLink’s vice president of network strategy and development says “There are customers that exist across the world where a one-minute outage is $25,000 in lost revenue from online transactions failing.”
If you are falling short of your downtime metrics, let’s see if Dataprobe can help.
