AWS Elemental MediaLive Anywhere Service Level Agreement
Last Updated: November 22, 2024
This AWS Elemental MediaLive Anywhere Service Level Agreement (“SLA”) is a policy governing the use of AWS Elemental MediaLive Anywhere and applies separately to each account using AWS Elemental MediaLive Anywhere. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this SLA and the terms of the AWS Customer Agreement or other agreement with us governing your use of our Services (the “Agreement”), the terms and conditions of this SLA apply, but only to the extent of such conflict. Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Agreement.
Service Commitment
AWS will use commercially reasonable efforts to make AWS Elemental MediaLive Anywhere available with a Monthly Uptime Percentage for each AWS region, during any monthly billing cycle, of at least 99.9% (the “Service Commitment”). In the event AWS Elemental MediaLive Anywhere does not meet the Service Commitment, you will be eligible to receive a Service Credit as described below.
Service Credits
Service Credits are calculated as a percentage of the following charges paid by you for AWS Elemental MediaLive Anywhere for the monthly billing cycle in which the Monthly Uptime Percentage for a given AWS region fell within the ranges set forth in the table below:
Monthly Uptime Percentage | Service Credit Percentage |
Less than 99.9% but greater than or equal to 99.0% |
10% |
Less than 99.0% but greater than or equal to 95.0% | 25% |
Less than 95.0% | 100% |
We will apply any Service Credits only against future AWS Elemental MediaLive Anywhere payments otherwise due from you. At our discretion, we may issue the Service Credits to the credit card you used to pay for the billing cycle in which the unavailability occurred. Service Credits will not entitle you to any refund or other payment from AWS. Service Credits will be applicable and issued only if the credit amount for the applicable monthly billing cycle is greater than one dollar ($1 USD). Service Credits may not be transferred or applied to any other account. Unless otherwise provided in the Agreement, your sole and exclusive remedy for any unavailability or non-performance or other failure by us to provide AWS Elemental MediaLive Anywhere is the receipt of Service Credits (if eligible) in accordance with the terms of this SLA.
Credit Request and Payment Procedures
To receive Service Credits, you will need to submit a claim by opening a case in the AWS Support Center. To be eligible, the credit request must be received by us by the end of the second billing cycle after which the incident occurred and must include:
(i) the words “SLA Credit Request” in the subject line;
(ii) the billing cycle, AWS regions and the dates and times of each Monthly Uptime Percentage and Unavailability incident you are claiming;
(iii) your logs that document your claimed outage (any confidential or sensitive information in these logs should be removed or replaced with asterisks).
If the Monthly Uptime Percentage of such credit request is confirmed by us and is less than the Service Commitment, then we will issue the Service Credits to you within one billing cycle following the month in which your request is confirmed by us. Your failure to provide the credit request and other information as required above will disqualify you from receiving Service Credits.
AWS Elemental MediaLive Anywhere SLA Exclusions
The Service Commitment does not apply to any unavailability, suspension or termination of AWS Elemental MediaLive Anywhere, or any other AWS Elemental MediaLive Anywhere performance issues: (i) caused by factors outside of our reasonable control, including any force majeure event or Internet access or related problems beyond the demarcation point of AWS Elemental MediaLive Anywhere; (ii) that result from any actions or inactions by you; (iii) that result from you not following the best practices described in the AWS Elemental MediaLive Anywhere User Guide on the AWS Site; (iv) that result from your equipment, software or other technology; or (v) arising from our suspension or termination of your right to use AWS Elemental MediaLive Anywhere in accordance with the Agreement (collectively, the “AWS Elemental MediaLive Anywhere SLA Exclusions”).
Definitions
- An “Error” is any Request that returns a 500, 502, 503 and 504 error code, as described in the AWS Elemental MediaLive API Reference Guide.
- “Unavailability” is calculated for each 5-minute interval as the percentage of Requests processed by AWS Elemental MediaLive Anywhere that fail with an Error. If you did not make any Requests in a given 5-minute interval, that interval is deemed to be 100% available.
- “Monthly Uptime Percentage” for a given AWS Region is calculated by subtracting from 100% the average of the Unavailability for all 5-minute intervals in a monthly billing cycle. Monthly Uptime Percentage measurements exclude downtime resulting directly or indirectly from any AWS Elemental MediaLive Anywhere SLA Exclusion.
- A “Request” is a customer-initiated action to AWS Elemental MediaLive Anywhere by directly calling the CreateNetworks, CreateCluster, CreateChannel, StartChannel, or StopChannel APIs as listed in the AWS Elemental MediaLive Anywhere API Reference Guide.
- A “Service Credit” is a dollar credit, calculated as set forth above, that we may credit back to an eligible account.
