Uptime and downtime with 96.6 % SLA

2025-11-27: It's always DNS, isn't it? I built an uptime monitoring service uptime mongers to monitor the DNS security issues that standard services ignore: parent zone delegation changes, stale DNSSEC signatures, expired RRSIGs. Other check types: PING, HTTP, TOR, TCP, PUSH.

SLA level of 96.6 % uptime results in the following periods of allowed downtime:

Daily 48m 58s

The SLA calculations assume a requirement of continuous uptime (i.e. 24/7 all year long) with additional approximations as described in the source. uptime.is was originally implemented in newLISP, which had powered uptime and downtime calculations for more than a decade.
