### Availability in numbers

|

Availability is generally quantified by uptime (or downtime) as a percentage of time the service is guaranteed to be available. Availability is often measured in number of 9s. A service with 99.99% availability is described as having four 9s.

#### Availability in parallel vs in sequence
|

If a service consists of multiple components prone to failure, the service's overall availability depends on whether the components are connected in sequence or in parallel.
