Availability and resilience

Guaranteed availability
We offer several levels of availability: - Same day service. Recover from failure within same day - One hour service. Recover from failure within one hour - High business continuity. Failover within 60 seconds - Continuous availability through Synchronous replication which provides zero point recovery. (No Loss of data.)
Approach to resilience
Client Hosted Minimum recommended resilience is Asynchronous replication at 15 minute intervals to a secondary or DR data center. Hardware design is recommended to following N+1 redundancy where there must be at least two single component failures before a service incident occurs. E.g. Power suppliers, disks, memory dims. The design is recommended to provide controlled failover to enable the replacement of any failed parts without impact the OpenEyes service. Cloud Hosted Minimum recommended resilience is Synchronous replication with zero point recovery in the advent of failure. All cloud providers now provide a recognised level of the required resilience such UPS, Generators, multiply National Grid Feeds, SAN Disk replication, Fire protection etc.
Outage reporting
ToukanLabs is currently able to report outages using the following methods:
- Public and private dashboards with current outage status
- Alerting via email to pre-defined distribution lists
- Text messages to a distribution lists
- Answer phone service with recorded with incident updates
- Direct status update to client service board where API integration is available,
The level of reporting and audience is defined in agreement with the client.
All service reporting is included in monthly service reports.

Operational security

Configuration and change management standard
Supplier-defined controls
Configuration and change management approach
Changes are assessed and approved by an independent board and presented as a controlled release

The OpenSource Software is managed and stored within GitHub repository,
Feature development, bug fixes and development requests are managed with Atlassian JIRA whereby formal software release configuration management processes are used.
All Releases are tracked from development, through system test and user acceptance testing environments, where sign off is required by the customer before being released to live.

A mixture of automated testing tools, load and performance and manual testing scripts are used to ensure code integrity.
Vulnerability management type
Supplier-defined controls
Vulnerability management approach
Our software undergoes DCB029 clinical certification and risk assessment.

Server stack software is upgraded regularly as part of our standard support and maintenance service, e.g. Operating system, web server and data base security patches applied. A security review is performed annually, or sooner if required and any risks/issued mitigated with an action plan formulated.
Application fixes from service management and bug fix procedures are usually deployed in a quarterly maintenance release, unless a more urgent release or hot fix is required and deployed with agreement with the customer.
Protective monitoring type
Supplier-defined controls
Protective monitoring approach
Automated monitoring tools look at system and application logs, server metrics, including CPU, Disk, Memory, and Network utilisation.
Triggered incident tickets are automatically created in our service management tool for action by support engineers.
Other checks are performed by service desk personnel on a daily basis.
Incident management type
Supplier-defined controls
Incident management approach
We have full ITIL service management processes including, but not limited to
Incident management procedures, problem management, route cause analysis, bug fix procedures, release management processes.

Users report incidents to our service desk, via our support portal, email, or telephone. Incidents are tracked through 1st, 2nd, and 3rd line support escalation as required.

A monthly service report is produced and this is reviewed in monthly service review meetings with our service manager and the Trust/customer.

Energy efficiency

Yes
Description of energy efficient datacentres
Our approach to sustainability and environmental responsibility is directed by a clear strategy, which is embedded within our organisation. Most of our activities have been assessed as having a minimal effect upon the environment, however where they do, we are committed to act responsibly and fully address this impact.

Our hosting partner's services (UKCloud) are CarbonNeutral® cloud services. We achieved this certification by working with Natural Capital Partners to measure and reduce our CO2 emissions across all sources used to deliver our cloud services to our customers. These include direct emissions from all owned or leased stationary sources that use fossil fuels and/or emit fugitive emissions, and emissions from the generation of purchased electricity and steam (including transmission and distribution losses) to power our servers.

For our cloud services to achieve CarbonNeutral® status, an independent assessment of the CO2 emissions produced from direct and indirect sources required to deliver them was carried out, followed by an offset-inclusive emissions reduction programme.
