Odoo Cloud Hosting - Service Level Agreement

Databases hosted on Odoo.com enjoy the following service at all times

Uptime

• Customer databases are hosted in the closest Odoo region (EMEA: France, Americas: Canada, APAC: Hong Kong or Taiwan)
• Each customer database is replicated in real-time on redundant storage located in the same data center
• We work with different hosting providers worldwide  that always deliver at least 99.9% uptime guarantee.
• So we can guarantee a minimum of 99.9% uptime (3 nines, excluding planned maintenance)^*
• This corresponds to a maximum unplanned downtime of 1.44min/24h or 8h/year.
• We usually deliver much better uptime than this (100% most months), as our providers always deliver a much better uptime than their SLA too.

^* these metrics refer to the availability of the platform itself for all customers. Individual databases may be temporarily unavailable for specific reasons, typically related to the customer's actions or customizations.

High Availability

• Our data centers are Tier-III certified or equivalent, with N+1 redundancy for power, network and cooling
• Each customer database is replicated in real-time on redundant storage located in the same data center, so a failover can happen quickly in case of hardware failure, with no data loss.

Backups & Disaster Recovery

• 14 full backups up to 3 months: 1/day for 7 days, 1/week for 4 weeks, 1/month for 3 months
• Backups replicated on at least 3 different machines in different data centers in Europe and Canada (it is not possible to choose or restrict the regions where backups are replicated)
• Users can download manual backups of their live data at any time
• For a permanent disaster impacting one server only, our Disaster Recovery Plan has the following metrics:
• • RPO (Recovery Point Objective) = 5 minutes, i.e. can lose maximum 5 minutes of work
  • RTO (Recovery Time Objective) = 30 minutes, i.e the service will be back online after maximum 30 minutes  (Standby promotion time + DNS propagation time included)
    
• For data center disasters (one entire data center is completely and permanently down), Disaster Recovery Plan has these metrics:
  • RPO (Recovery Point Objective) = 24h, i.e. you can lose maximum 24h of work if the data cannot be recovered and we need to restore the last daily backup
  • RTO (Recovery Time Objective) = 24h, i.e. the service will be restored from the backup within 24 hours in a different data center 

Security

• SSL - All web connections to client instances are protected with 256-bit SSL encryption (HTTPS with a 2048-bit modulus SSL certificate), and running behind Grade A SSL stacks. All our certificates chains are using SHA-2 already.
• Reliable Platform - Servers with full hardware guarantee, redundant data storage, network and electrical supplies
• Passwords - Customer passwords are protected with industry-standard PBKDF2+SHA512 encryption (salted + stretched for thousands of rounds)
• Safe System - Our servers are running recent Linux distribution with up-to-date security patches, with firewall and intrusion counter-measures (not disclosed for obvious reasons) 
• Isolation - Client data stored in dedicated databases - no sharing of data between clients, no access possible from one database to another
