SharePoint Provider & Fpweb.net Hosting
Service Level Agreement
Because availability is paramount to your
mission-critical hosting environment, our Service Level
Agreement (SLA) is designed to protect customers against
unscheduled outages. Only a specialist can offer the
most uncompromising SLA in the hosting industry,
guaranteeing maximum uptime and
free Rapid
Hardware Replacement. The SLA provides unsurpassed
levels of availability with correspondingly aggressive
penalties for failure to comply with the SLA.
Maximum Uptime Network
Fpweb.net Hosting guarantees that its network will be available 100%
of the time in a given month, excluding scheduled
maintenance. Upon experiencing downtime, Fpweb.net Hosting will
refund the customer 20% of the monthly fee for each 3
hours of downtime (up to 100% of customer's monthly fee
for the affected server). Network uptime includes
functioning of all network infrastructure including
routers, switches and cabling, but does not include
services or software running on your server. Network
downtime exists when a particular customer is unable to
transmit and receive data and is measured from the time
the trouble ticket is opened.
Infrastructure
Fpweb.net Hosting guarantees that the critical infrastructure
systems, including power and HVAC, will be available
100% of the time in a given month, excluding scheduled
maintenance. Upon experiencing downtime, Fpweb.net Hosting will
refund the customer 20% of the monthly fee for each 3
hours of downtime (up to 100% of customer's monthly fee
for the affected server). Critical infrastructure
includes functioning of all power and HVAC
infrastructure including UPSs, PDUs and cabling, but
does not include the power supplies on customers'
servers. Infrastructure downtime exists when a
particular server is shut down due to power or heat
problems and is measured from the time the customer
opens a trouble ticket regarding server downtime to the
time the problem is resolved and the server is powered
back on.
Hardware
Fpweb.net Hosting guarantees the functioning of all hardware
components and will replace any failed component at no
cost to the customer. Hardware replacement will begin
once Fpweb.net Hosting identifies the cause of the problem. Hardware
is defined as the Processor(s), RAM, hard disk(s),
motherboard, NIC card and other related hardware
included with the server. This excludes the time
required to rebuild a RAID array and the reload of
certain operating systems and applications.
EXCHANGE HOSTING

hosting environment, our Service Level Agreement (SLA)
is designed to protect customers against unscheduled
outages. Only a specialist can offer the most

guaranteeing maximum uptime. The SLA provides
unsurpassed levels of availability with correspondingly
aggressive penalties for failure to comply with the SLA.
