WarpStream BYOC SLA
Confluent · Messaging · promises up to 99.999% · SLA of Jul 25, 2025 · checked 23h ago
2 major outages in the last 365 days. Worst region us-east-1: 33 h counted, 99.628% observed against the 99.99% Enterprise cluster (single region), which applies per region.
1 of 12 months fell below it (credits are claimed per month). The 99.999% Enterprise cluster (multi region) tier assumes failover to another region, so a one-region outage is not held against it.
Last 90 days: no major outage.

- Jul 25, 2025WarpStream BYOCWarpStream BYOC schedule changed between the March 19, 2025 and July 25, 2025 SLA PDFs: March had 3 columns (Fundamentals/Pro/Enterprise, top band '< 99.99% ≥ 99.95%' for Enterprise, bands like '< 99.94% ≥ 99.90%'); July adds 'Enterprise Cluster (Multi Region)' at 99.999% ('< 99.999% ≥ 99.99% ... 10%') and re-cuts bands to '< 99.95% ≥ 99.90%'. The Kafka, Flink, Connector, ksqlDB and Schema Registry tables are identical in both.Source
