    Its impossible to offer such uptime. Any webhost offering this is lying, or will inform you that any downtime caused will not count if its for reboots, maintenance, DDoS, ect.

    If you find 100% uptime provider do let us all know will ask WHT to move their sites to them also and move to them ourselves.

    Bottom line 100% = Perfection but i doubt there is anything perfect in this world.
    12+ years -same website , new server [SSD Inside] providing shared/reseller hosting only !
    These things we do not provide/offer : Unlimited Storage ! Unlimited Bandwidth ! But Why? Cause, we were unable to put such a large number on our pages, it just would not fit.
    So check out the numbers that actually fit >> << the page as well as your budget too !

    it's not impossible and there are valid nocs that advertise it.

    They fail to meet the SLA at odd times and pay for it.

    if your network is redundant and you have multiple upstream providers it most certainly is possible.

    Thats very true, but most can't afford that. Google and Yahoo sure can though.

    It really depends on the time frame you are referring to.

    There some questions that must be answered before answering your question:

    For how long? (for ever would be irrealistic )
    For what services (http, smtp, pop, telnet, etc) ?
    For which networks?
    From which countries?
    For which ISP?

    Maybe there are more . . .

    all the big nocs have many providers. 5 at least.

    Those are the biggest ones. but you're right that a small provider likely won't be multihomed

    Mosso provides a 100% SLA agreement with their clustering system.

    Does it mean that they have plans to solve in advance all known and UNKNOWN issues that could affect their system at any time?

    IMHO it would be unrealistic . . .

    Yes that is correct you can have uptime at 100% for a month or few like i did just like urself , but for lifetime forget it. (unless ur life is only few days or few hours just like few bugs who have pretty small lifetime)

    you could cluster across the globe, but even that wouldn't be resilliant against a sudden climate change wiping everything off the face of the earth... and plus it wouldn't be a server, it would be multiple servers

    regardless of what any webhost says they will all experience at least 1 second of downtime a year

    You guys do realize your servers and hardware have nothing to do with a 100% uptime right?

    that's a NETWORK uptime and there are more than a few that do it.

    do you know what redundancy is? why is it so hard to understand that a noc can and DOES maintain 100% uptime SLA?

    You should research some hardware and NOC facilities if you don't understand what I'm saying.

    If you have complete redundancy on your network and no SPF and you have multiple upstream providers you can offer it. SLAs are based on 30 day cycles. if a NOC misses their SLA, they will compensate based on the rate they promise. But most rarely miss that.

    it's not something special, it just requires a LOT more money.

    jeeze dude you need a lesson in SLAs.

    You don't understand what I'm saying because you don't understand what it means.

    Networks that offer 100% uptime SLAs do so stating that they will be up 100% of the time throughout the period the SLA states (which is 30 days). it does NOT mean they never ever go down. if they miss the SLA they pay. but because of redundancy, and multiple upstream providers that rarely happens.
