This will be hosted by Hetzner, OVH or a suitable equivalent, so the “SLA” is based on assuming that they’ll rectify any hardware failures within 2 days. I this case I’ll gamble on backups with the idea that in the worst case scenario it takes us less that an hour or rebuild the machine on a different provider such as AWS.

The machine itself is only really required for a few days every quarter, with a few days’ worth of leeway if we fail. Therefore I feel this is a acceptable risk.
