Service Levels & Support

Enterprise Operational Commitments

Forge Pool provides defined service levels and operational support models for mission-critical distributed execution environments.

Service commitments are deployment-dependent and contractually defined per engagement.


Availability Commitments (Uptime SLA)

Forge Pool offers the following baseline commitments for managed deployments:

  • 99.9% monthly uptime SLA for shared platform services
  • Optional 99.99% monthly uptime SLA for dedicated or private Hub deployments

Availability applies to:

  • Hub orchestration services
  • public API endpoints
  • scheduling and routing systems
  • deterministic reduction and aggregation
  • execution ledger integrity

Availability is measured at the Hub boundary.

Exclusions include:

  • scheduled maintenance windows (communicated in advance)
  • force majeure events
  • customer-side outages
  • misconfigured client integrations
  • unsupported adapters or experimental workloads

Service credits, where applicable, are defined contractually.


Performance Characteristics

Forge Pool provides predictable scaling behavior under supported workloads.

Performance depends on:

  • adapter type
  • iteration volume
  • input size and entropy
  • agent availability and distribution
  • deployment configuration

Forge Pool does not guarantee fixed execution times.

It guarantees:

  • bounded orchestration overhead
  • deterministic scheduling behavior
  • linear or near-linear scaling characteristics where applicable
  • transparent telemetry for performance validation

Performance targets may be contractually defined for dedicated environments.

Illustrative performance examples are provided for guidance only.


Execution Integrity Commitment

Service levels cover:

  • platform availability
  • deterministic execution enforcement
  • verification layer integrity
  • ledger recording reliability

Execution integrity is monitored continuously.

Platform uptime and execution correctness are treated as separate but related commitments.


Support Tiers

Support models align with operational criticality.

Standard Support

  • 24/7 email-based support
  • incident tracking
  • response target: up to 48 hours

Business Support

  • priority support channel
  • response target: up to 4 hours
  • engineering escalation
  • integration guidance

Enterprise Support

  • real-time communication channel (e.g., Slack or MS Teams)
  • response target: up to 1 hour
  • dedicated Technical Account Manager
  • deployment architecture guidance
  • compliance and audit assistance

Response targets refer to initial acknowledgement, not resolution time.


Incident Management Framework

Forge Pool follows a structured incident management lifecycle:

  1. Detection and automated alerting
  2. Severity classification
  3. Fault isolation and mitigation
  4. Customer notification (severity-dependent)
  5. Root Cause Analysis (RCA)
  6. Preventative remediation

Severity levels and escalation timelines are defined in customer agreements.

Post-incident documentation is provided for significant events.


Dedicated & Private Deployments

For workloads requiring increased isolation or tighter performance envelopes, Forge Pool supports:

  • Dedicated Hub instances
  • Private VPC or on-prem deployment
  • Region-locked execution pools
  • Custom routing and scheduling policies
  • Enhanced observability and reporting

Dedicated environments enable stricter SLA definitions and governance integration.


Scope & Limitations

Service levels apply to platform operation and execution infrastructure.

They do not guarantee:

  • business outcomes
  • probabilistic model accuracy
  • third-party data quality
  • decision-making correctness
  • customer-side infrastructure reliability

Enterprises retain responsibility for governance and validation.


Shared Responsibility

Forge Pool is responsible for:

  • platform availability
  • execution orchestration
  • deterministic enforcement
  • verification layers
  • infrastructure-level incident response

Customers are responsible for:

  • workload configuration
  • integration quality
  • data governance
  • internal operational procedures
  • regulatory interpretation

Summary

Forge Pool provides enterprise-grade operational commitments through defined availability targets, structured incident management, and tiered support models.

Execution integrity and platform reliability are treated as foundational commitments.
