Change Management SLA

Most of Eclipse API's production deployments/changes are executed without any system downtime or customer disruption. We ensure all changes are backward compatible for our customers. Zero-downtime deployments/changes occur during regular business hours from Monday to Thursday.

To maintain stability during peak times, we try to minimize deployments at month end, between the 25th and 3rd, on Fridays, or the day before a public holiday in South Africa.

Emergency deployments are based on the severity of a production incident and will be expedited after receiving the necessary approvals. When we anticipate any downtime or customer impact, we will notify our tenants/customers at least 5 days in advance of the deployment. Any scheduled downtimes will be planned during low-impact hours, between 11 PM and 4 AM SAST, to minimize potential customer disruption.
