 ==== System Availability and Data Integrity ====
-As with any cloud based application there is always concern with system availability and uptime. Astroid makes use of caching at various system levels to improve performance and mitigate some of these concerns, however, this can never provide 100% assurance and reliability. Since customer has unique needs, specific business agreements will be entered into with each customer as appropriate to detail the reliability guarantees and assurances. Data integrity is generally a less variable concern, as Astroid's cloud storage providers strong guarantee the highest commercially available data redundancy and integrity limits (approaching 99.999999% per year). Data is transferred to and from the cloud services using secure transfer protocols, that guarantee error-free of transfer using common industry standard techniques (for more details please see the [[https://developers.thinknode.com/guides/ipc|Thinknode IPC article]]). While Astroid has been designed with security in mind, users should understand that it is still their responsibility to ensure the system is accessed and controlled properly. Following international standards for IT risk management, such as IEC 80001-1, is therefore highly recommended.

-Since data integrity is such a critical feature for application such as this, the Astroid Planning App automatically saves both the state of the application and the working record data on a timer (triggering every minute or less) as well as on exit of any create or edit event in the application. Additionally, each "save" event creates a new entry in the record's history log in Thinknode, which provides a log file for editing of all records and a ensures that patient records are saved securely on an independent medium so they are not lost in the event of a local system failure or crash.
