Other protection within supplier network
Workday enables customers to share one physical instance of the Workday system while isolating each customer tenant’s application data (using the Workday Object Management Server).
Every user ID is associated with one-tenant (used to access the Workday application). All instances of application objects (such as Organisation and Worker) are tenant-based, so every time a new object is created, that object is also irrevocably linked to the user’s tenant. The Workday system maintains these links automatically and restricts access to every object, based on the user ID and tenant. Tenancy filters ensure retrieval of information only corresponding to the user’s tenant.

Availability and resilience

Guaranteed availability
99.95% availability and can include this within a SLA on request.
Approach to resilience
Workday warrants its service to its standard servicelevel agreement (SLA). The SLA includes a disaster
recovery (DR) plan for the Workday Production Service
with a recovery time objective (RTO) of 12 hours and a
recovery point objective (RPO) of 1 hour. The RTO is measured from the time the Workday Production Service becomes unavailable until it is available again. The RPO is measured from the time the first transaction
is lost until the Workday Production Service became
unavailable.
To make sure Workday maintains these SLA commitments, Workday maintains a DR environment with a complete replication of the production
environment. In the event of an unscheduled outage where the outage is estimated to be greater than a predefined duration, Workday executes its DR plan. The DR plan is tested at least every six months.
https://www.workday.com/content/dam/web/se/documents/datasheets/datasheet-workday-security-se.pdf
Outage reporting
Workday offers a dedicated portal that provides an at-a-glance high-level summary on the current health status of your Workday data centers (URL - community.workday.com/trust/status).
Users can subscribe and choose the type of alerts they would like to receive via email.
