The availability is "only" 99.999%, which IMO is still really high!

(I work for Google Cloud)

Where does it say that? Does google cloud spanner guarantee three nines uptime?

On the spanner page it says:

>> This feature is not covered by any SLA

;) ;)

Once Cloud Spanner leaves beta, it will be covered by an SLA. GCP Alpha/Beta products don't have SLAs for the most part.
