Set uptime and latency goals by endpoint class; align with business needs.

Measure reliably

Use synthetic checks and server metrics; align SLOs to SLA terms.

Document exceptions

List maintenance windows and exclusions clearly in contracts.

Report and improve

Share performance reports and root causes; adjust capacity or code to meet targets.
