Common SLA windows are hour, day, week, month, quarter, and year. They're out of SLA for all of those now.

When your SLA holds within a joke SLA window, you know you goofed.

"Five nines, but you didn't say which nines. 89.9999...", etc.

These are typically calculated system-wide, so if you include all regions, technically only a fraction of customers are impacted.

Indirectly yes but not directly.

Our only impact was some atlassian tools.
