About 1821 wordsAbout 6 min
To use the Cloud Native Build service (hereinafter referred to as "the Service") provided by Tencent Cloud Computing (Beijing) Co., Ltd., you should read and comply with the "Cloud Native Build Service Level Agreement" (hereinafter referred to as "this Agreement" or "SLA") and the "Cloud Native Build Service Agreement". This Agreement includes the terms and definitions of the Service, service availability/service success rate indicators, compensation plans, disclaimers, and other related content. Please read carefully and fully understand the terms. Terms that limit, disclaim, or involve your significant rights may be highlighted in bold, underlined, or other forms to draw your attention. Unless you have fully read, understood, and accepted all the terms of this Agreement, please do not purchase the Service. By clicking "Agree", "Next", or through your purchase, use, or any other express or implied acceptance of this Agreement, you are deemed to have read and agreed to be bound by this Agreement. This Agreement shall take legal effect between you and the Cloud Native Build Service and become a legally binding document for both parties.
1. Terms and Definitions
1.1 Cloud Native Build Service
The Cloud Native Build Service is based on the Docker ecosystem, abstracting environments, caches, and plugins. It uses declarative syntax and a code-based approach to automate processes, reducing the cost of repetitive labor and minimizing manual operation errors, thereby improving development efficiency.
1.2 Service Unavailability
Error Rate Unavailability: Refers to the error rate of the Cloud Native Build Service exceeding 0.05% (excluding 0.05%) within a unit time (5 minutes as a statistical granularity), which is considered as error rate unavailability for that unit time.
Failed Request Unavailability: Refers to the Cloud Native Build Service being continuously unavailable for 10 minutes or longer. Periods shorter than 10 minutes are not counted as service unavailability time.
Both Error Rate Unavailability and Failed Request Unavailability are considered as Service Unavailability.
1.3 Error Rate
The Error Rate refers to the proportion of failed requests returned by the Cloud Native Build Service out of the total user requests within a unit time (5 minutes).
1.4 Failed Requests
Failed Requests refer to requests returned by the Cloud Native Build Service with server internal error codes, including Internal Error (500 error) or Service Unavailable (503 error), but excluding requests throttled due to rate limits or failed requests caused by Cloud Native Build upgrades, changes, or downtime.
User Requests refer to requests received by the Cloud Native Build Service server from users, excluding requests that are unauthenticated, fail authentication, or are in a state of service suspension due to unpaid fees. Requests from user-side attacks on the Cloud Native Build Service or requests executed asynchronously in the backend due to cross-region replication or lifecycle rules are not considered valid requests or failed requests.
1.5 Service Unavailable Time
Service Unavailable Time refers to the total minutes of Cloud Native Build Service unavailability within a Service Month. If both Error Rate Unavailability and Failed Request Unavailability occur at the same time, only one unavailability time is counted (as shown in Example 1). If different functional modules of the Cloud Native Build Service are unavailable, they should be uniformly regarded as Cloud Native Build Service unavailability, meaning the unavailability times of different functional modules at the same time are calculated uniformly and not accumulated (as shown in Example 2).
Example 1:
For example, after purchasing the Cloud Native Build Service, if there is a 15-minute Error Rate Unavailability from 17:01 to 17:16 on a certain day and a 15-minute Failed Request Unavailability from 17:06 to 17:21 on the same day, the overlapping period (17:06-17:16) is counted as one unavailability time. The total Service Unavailable Time for this instance is 20 minutes.
Example 2:
For example, if the Cloud Native Build Service you purchased includes functional module A and functional module B, and functional module A experiences 15 minutes of Service Unavailability from 17:01 to 17:16 on a certain day, while functional module B experiences 15 minutes of Service Unavailability from 17:06 to 17:21 on the same day, the overlapping period (17:06-17:16) is counted as one unavailability time. The total Service Unavailable Time for this instance is 20 minutes.
1.6 Service Month
Refers to each natural month included in the service period you purchased. For example, if you purchase the Service from March 17 to June 16, it includes 4 Service Months, where the first Service Month is from March 17 to March 31, the second Service Month is from April 1 to April 30, the third Service Month is from May 1 to May 31, and the fourth Service Month is from June 1 to June 16. Service Availability is calculated separately for each Service Month.
1.7 Monthly Service Fee
Refers to the total service fee you paid for using the Cloud Native Build Service in a specific Service Month.
1.8 Total Time in a Service Month
Calculated as the number of days in the Service Month × 24 (hours) × 60 (minutes).
2. Service Availability/Success Rate Calculation Method
2.1 Service Availability Calculation Method
Service Availability = (1 - Service Unavailable Time / Total Time in a Service Month) × 100%
2.2 Service Availability
The Service Availability provided by Cloud Native Build is: Cloud Native Build Service Availability is no less than 99.8%.
Assuming a month has 30 days, the available time for the Cloud Native Build Service should be 30 days × 24 hours × 60 minutes × 99.8% = 43,113.6 minutes, meaning the allowed unavailability time is 43,200 - 43,113.6 = 86.4 minutes.
3. Compensation Plan
For this Service, if the Service Availability falls below the standard specified in Article 2 of this Agreement, paid customers have the right to receive compensation according to the following terms:
3.1 Compensation Standards
(1) Compensation will be provided in the form of virtual credits issued by Tencent Cloud. The virtual credits cannot be cashed out or invoiced and can only be used by you through your account for the Service. You may not transfer or gift the credits.
(2) If the Service Availability standard is not met in a Service Month, the compensation amount will be calculated separately for that non-compliant Service Month. The total compensation shall not exceed the corresponding Monthly Service Fee you paid for the Service in the non-compliant Service Month (excluding fees deducted by credits, coupons, or service fee waivers).
Service Availability in a Service Month | Compensation Credit Amount |
---|---|
Below 99.8% but equal to or above 99.0% | 10% of the Monthly Service Fee for the non-compliant Service Month |
Below 99.0% but equal to or above 95.0% | 25% of the Monthly Service Fee for the non-compliant Service Month |
Below 95.0% | 50% of the Monthly Service Fee for the non-compliant Service Month |
3.2 Compensation Application Deadline
(1) If the Service Availability standard is not met in a Service Month, you may submit a compensation application through the ticket system of your corresponding account no earlier than the fifth (5th) working day after the end of the non-compliant Service Month. After you submit the compensation application, Cloud Native Build will conduct verification. If there is a dispute regarding the calculation of Service Availability in a Service Month, both parties agree that the final determination shall be based on Cloud Native Build's backend records.
(2) The latest time for you to submit a compensation application shall not exceed sixty (60) natural days after the end of the non-compliant Service Month. If you do not submit a compensation application within sixty (60) days after the end of the non-compliant Service Month, or if you submit the application after sixty (60) days, or if you submit the application through non-agreed methods, it will be deemed that you have automatically waived the right to claim compensation and other rights against Cloud Native Build. Cloud Native Build reserves the right to reject your compensation application and will not provide any compensation or remedy.
4. Disclaimer
