I want to ask you, dudes, how can the company (simplehelix) offer 100% Uptime SLA?
What does it depend on?
What else companies provides that?

There's either some strange wording in the actual agreement that gives them a loophole when things go down, or they have an excellent global network.
Strong with this one, the sudo is.

We offer 100% uptime, course you pay through the nose for it. :) Heh.

You have to read the fine print though. They might discount maintenance windows in the agreement. I can't find any specifics in my cursory investigation. I would ask for the specifics regarding the uptime guarantee.

The only way to offer true 100% availability os to have multiple data centers using autonomic global load balancers.

Even then, a nuclear holocaust would probably bump that guarantee back to 99%.

Heh, yeah that is true, though I think there won't be anyone around to call you on your SLA. ;)
