What credit back? RackNerd gives you account credit for next month? So if down whole month you get... another month of RackNerd?

Some deal.

Yes exactly wkwkwk. I had one time down 3 day, I open ticket, they give me 1 month credit. I use credit, now I pay nothing until next year. So downtime cost me nothing except WhatsApp message from client.

This is why I stay. Not because good. Because cheap enough that failure is free.

wrap it, ship it, pray it

This is the real insight of the thread. Not nines. Cost of failure vs cost of prevention.

For hospital, failure cost is lawsuit and death. For warung web, failure cost is one WhatsApp.

Different math. Same engineering.

No. Different engineering. Hospital has redundancy, hot failover, tested DR plans. Warung web has "restart when wake up."

Do not confuse the moral worth with the technical method. Both are valid for their context. But they are not the same engineering.

I arrived late. Has anyone mentioned that "five nines" is 26 seconds per month? Not per year?

No? Good. Because it's per year. I checked.
