Availability and resilience

Guaranteed availability
Prisma™ Cloud services shall be available 99.9% of the time, measured monthly excluding scheduled maintenance.

If Customer requests maintenance during these hours, any uptime or downtime calculation will exclude periods affected by such maintenance.
Further, any downtime resulting from outages of third-party connections or utilities or other reasons beyond the control of Palo Alto Networks will also be excluded from any such calculation.

Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy and the entire liability of
Palo Alto Networks, in connection with Prisma Cloud service availability, shall be to credit Customer 2% of monthly service fees (downtime credit) for each period of 60 consecutive minutes of downtime, provided that no more than one such credit will accrue
per day. Downtime shall begin to accrue as soon as Customer notifies Palo Alto Networks that downtime is taking place and will continue to accrue until service is restored.

In order to receive downtime credit, the customer must notify Palo Alto Networks in writing within 24 hours from the time of downtime. Failure to provide such notice will forfeit the right to receive downtime credit.
Approach to resilience
Palo Alto Networks delivers the Prisma Cloud service utilising public cloud providers Amazon Web Services and Google Compute Platform. Within each of these providers the use of “availability zones” (AZ) to ensure geo and service redundancy and resiliency within a region (e.g. United Kingdom) and at a regional level with traffic being able to be steered to another region/availability zone/location should an incident occur.
