Huh? You don't have to use Github Enterprise (self-hosted) to get an SLA. Github Business, which is hosted on github.com has a 99.95% uptime SLA: https://github.com/pricing

An upgrade from Team to Business is "only" a 2.3x price bump per dev. I have no experience with this though, my team is still of the Team plan and thus suffered from the outage today.

Huh indeed. 99.95% uptime -- AKA: three and a half nines. My quick math tells me that 99.95% uptime equates to a downtime of ~4:23/yr. If github is down for an hour once every few months, I'd say they're likely well within their stated SLA.
