Common use of Availability Target Clause in Contracts

Availability Target. The Availability target of an SLA indicates the probabilistic level of reliability of the serv provided, based on its design, including protection mechanisms that are provided in the service. In general, NSPs define this number based on the past statistics of the network service (or a simi design) over a long period of time (e.g. 1 year): A  MTBF 100% t arget (MTTR  MTBF ) Where The Availability definition may vary between different SLA models and it is therefore important that a clear definition and method of measurement be understood and agreed. Atarget: Availability Target
