But with three nines, the outage may be 1 second long outages 43 times a day.
Or perhaps they are 1 millisecond outages every other second.

Depends on how much you value sleeping at night.

Five nines of reliability gets you a calculated 5 minutes of downtime per year.

Three nines gets you a calculated 4-1/2 hours of downtime per year.

How much is the extra 4 hours and 25 minutes worth to you?

NOTE: All times are approximate.

that additional cost?
