Given there is no contracted scheme to provide credits or damages as a compensation for failure to meet an SLA, and that uptime depends not only on an IXs switching infrastructure but also the availability and capacity of all connected networks, and in LINX's case that it's a membership company, the question is what is the point to have an SLA if it provides nothing contractually and has no teeth if it doesn't meet any SLA?
To my knowledge, it's similar to bilateral private peering, where both parties provide no guarantees since there is no strong vendor-client contract and fees with which to offer compensation from.
