AdTech Europe

How is planned maintenance announced, and does it count as downtime?

Planned maintenance is announced in advance and does not count as downtime under the Service Level Agreement.

The rules

  • Maintenance is announced at least 48 hours in advance.
  • It is kept outside peak hours where possible.
  • Planned maintenance is excluded from the uptime calculation.

What the SLA covers

  • It applies to clients on a hosted platform plan (DSP, SSP, ADX, DMP or white-label).
  • Source-code licences hosted by the client are not covered.
  • The target is 99.9% monthly availability of the bidding and ad-serving systems, measured by monitoring and published on status.adtech.eu.
