During the Term of the agreement under which Google has agreed to provide Google Cloud Platform to Customer (as applicable, the "Agreement"), the Covered Service will provide a Monthly Uptime Percentage to Customer as follows (the "Service Level Objective" or "SLO"):
Covered Service | Monthly Uptime Percentage |
Pub/Sub | >=99.95% |
Pub/Sub Lite | >=99.95% for regional topics >=99.5% for zonal topics |
Covered Service

Pub/Sub
>=99.95%
Pub/Sub Lite
>=99.95% for regional topics
>=99.5% for zonal topics
If Google does not meet the SLO, and if Customer meets its obligations under this SLA, Customer will be eligible to receive the Financial Credits described below. Monthly Uptime Percentage and Financial Credit are determined on a calendar month basis per Project. This SLA states Customer's sole and exclusive remedy for any failure by Google to meet the SLO. Capitalized terms used in this SLA, but not defined in this SLA, have the meaning set forth in the Agreement. If the Agreement authorizes the resale or supply of Google Cloud Platform under a Google Cloud partner or reseller program, then all references to Customer in this SLA mean Partner or Reseller (as applicable), and any Financial Credit(s) will only apply for impacted Partner or Reseller order(s) under the Agreement.
The following definitions apply to the SLA:
Monthly Uptime Percentage | Percentage of monthly bill for the Covered Service that does not meet SLO that will be credited to Customer's future monthly bills |
99% to <99.95% | 10% |
95% to <99% | 25% |
<95% | 50% |

*If both Monthly Uptime Percentage SLOs are affected in a given month within the same Project, then Customer will only be entitled to the greater of the two corresponding Financial Credits (not both).
In order to receive any of the Financial Credits described above, Customer must notify Google technical support within 30 days from the time Customer becomes eligible to receive a Financial Credit. If Customer does not comply with these requirements, Customer will forfeit its right to receive a Financial Credit.
The maximum aggregate number of Financial Credits issued by Google to Customer for all Downtime Periods in a single billing month will not exceed 50% of the amount due from Customer for the applicable Covered Service for the applicable month. Financial Credits will be in the form of a monetary credit applied to future use of the Covered Service and will be applied within 60 days after the Financial Credit was requested.
The SLA does not apply to any (a) features or services designated pre-general availability (unless otherwise set forth in the associated Documentation), (b) features or services excluded from the SLA (in the associated Documentation), or (c) errors (i) caused by factors outside of Google's reasonable control; (ii) that resulted from Customer's software or hardware or third party software or hardware, or both; (iii) that resulted from abuses or other behaviors that violate the Agreement; or (iv) that resulted from quotas applied by the system or listed in the Admin Console.
