The Dynatrace SaaS SLA for Monthly Uptime Percentage is 99.5% for all customers. Customers who subscribe to Enterprise Success & Support have an enhanced SLA for Monthly Uptime Percentage of 99.95%.
Dynatrace will use commercially reasonable efforts to make the Dynatrace SaaS environment available in accordance with the Monthly Uptime Percentage defined in the link below. In the event Dynatrace does not meet the Service Commitment, you may be eligible to receive a Service Credit, to be applied as described here: https://www.dynatrace.com/company/trust-center/sla/saas/ - Approach to resilience
-
Dynatrace uses a clustered architecture. Each cluster uses multiple data centers (AWS availability zones, Azure availability zones, or Google Zones) for redundancy within the same geographical region and over-provisions required resources. If a server fails, another server in the same or a different data center can take over, while the fail-over process recreates the failed instance. Data is replicated to other data centers, too. The architecture even allows for the failure of an entire data center. Fail-over is handled automatically.
Health monitoring: Health of Dynatrace SaaS systems is constantly monitored with Dynatrace itself (self-monitoring). Fail-over is handled automatically. In case of a severe problem, a DevOps with 24/7 availability is notified.
In case an entire AWS region/Azure region/GCP zone or multiple clusters within a region go down, clusters can be restored from backups. - Outage reporting
-
Dynatrace communicates outages by a combination of email alerts to the affected customers and posting the outage to the Dynatrace community where affected users can track the resolution of the issue (https://dynatrace.status.io/).
The information provided includes service impacted, site location, start and end times, current status, description of service outage and customer impact.
Once the problem has been resolved the Senior Director or Vice President responsible for the service issues a "reason for outage" report that is emailed to those customers affected by the outage.

The changes are then communicated to all employees through an email message and during Security Awareness training. Dynatrace LLC also updates the Security Policy as needed throughout the year. New employees must go through an onboarding program, which also includes the annual security awareness training.

Production logs of level SEVERE and WARNING are monitored and reviewed daily. Jira tickets are created for every log event warranting further investigation.
Jira tickets are created and assigned immediately to engineers for further security investigations.
