API access is configured by Panaya during onboarding; customers then authenticate using secure credentials. The APIs are intended for controlled integration rather than full self‑service provisioning, so core environment setup, tenant creation, user management and advanced configuration remain managed by Panaya. Any available API operations, rate limits and payload formats are defined in Panaya’s technical integration documentation.

Scaling

Independence of resources
Panaya runs on scalable cloud infrastructure and uses logical separation of customer environments to avoid resource contention. Capacity is monitored and adjusted to maintain performance targets, and rate‑limiting may be applied to specific high‑volume operations or integrations to protect overall service stability. Large test runs or data loads can be scheduled or phased to minimise impact on other users. Panaya reduces “noisy neighbor” impact by running on scalable AWS infrastructure, continuously monitoring/logging the service, and operating under BC/DR and SOC 2 availability controls.

Availability and resilience

Guaranteed availability
Panaya is operated as a SaaS platform with resilience supported by disaster recovery planning and monitoring. Disaster recovery objectives for Customer Data are approximately 2 hours RTO and 15 minutes RPO. Planned maintenance and releases may require maintenance windows; customers can enable notifications to receive updates on releases and planned maintenance windows. Availability targets are agreed contractually (typically in the Subscription Order). If Panaya cannot restore the service to the agreed availability level, the MSA provides for termination of the affected subscription term and refund of prepaid unused fees for the terminated portion
For more detailed information please refer to Oracle Cloud Hosting and Delivery Policies.

https://www.oracle.com/corporate/contracts/cloud-services/hosting-delivery-policies.html#hd
Approach to resilience
Panaya operates its SaaS service on AWS and supports geographic hosting by production environment (US or Europe). In Europe, the main data center is in Dublin with backup in Frankfurt; in the US, the main data center is in North Virginia with backup in Oregon. Panaya maintains disaster recovery plans with objectives of approximately 2 hours RTO and 15 minutes RPO for Customer Data. The service is continuously monitored via an industry-aligned logging system to detect unauthorized access and support operational response, and Panaya undergoes annual SOC 2 audits that include availability controls.
Outage reporting
Panaya communicates service-impacting events primarily via customer notifications and support channels. Users can enable email notifications to receive updates on releases and planned maintenance windows. Availability commitments are defined contractually as “agreed service level availability”; if service restoration is impracticable, the MSA provides for termination of the affected subscription term and refund of prepaid unused fees for the terminated portion

Operational security

Configuration and change management standard
Supplier-defined controls
Configuration and change management approach
Panaya maintains baseline configurations for production infrastructure and uses a managed configuration system for server and patch management to maintain hardened security settings. Panaya also maintains a Change Management Policy that defines change types, required documentation, peer review, approval steps, and emergency change handling. Production and non-production environments are kept separate, and changes are tested in a separate test environment prior to deployment. Panaya publishes release notices for major and minor releases, and supports change governance through ongoing patching, regular risk assessments, and monthly internal and external vulnerability scans with remediation tracking
Vulnerability management type
Supplier-defined controls
Vulnerability management approach
Panaya operates a structured vulnerability management process aligned with its information security policy.
Potential threats are identified through recurring internal and external vulnerability scans and annual third-party penetration tests. Findings are triaged and prioritized based on severity and business impact, with remediation tracked through risk review and change management processes. Security patches are applied on an ongoing basis, with critical vulnerabilities prioritized for accelerated remediation. The CISO monitors security bulletins and notification services to trigger internal analysis and response when relevant.
Protective monitoring type
Supplier-defined controls
Protective monitoring approach
Panaya performs protective monitoring through centralized logging and monitoring, including manual and automated log review processes and a logging system aligned with industry standards to continuously monitor for unauthorized access. Panaya performs monthly internal and external vulnerability scans and conducts monthly risk meetings; the CISO monitors security bulletins and notifies the incident response forum when relevant. For confirmed breaches affecting Customer Data, Panaya notifies affected customers immediately after confirmation and no later than 72 hours, or as set out in the customer agreement.
Incident management type
Supplier-defined controls
Incident management approach
Panaya maintains a formal Security Incident Policy managed by the CISO. Panaya personnel must report any known or suspected security incidents immediately. For confirmed security breaches affecting Customer Data, Panaya notifies affected customers immediately after confirming the incident and no later than 72 hours (or as set out in agreement). If all information is not available at the time of notification, Panaya provides follow‑up updates as additional information becomes available. Panaya takes steps to remediate, minimize effects, and investigate the incident, and will reasonably cooperate with customers and provide assistance and information on request for containment, investigation, remediation, or mitigation.
