Service Levels That Match How You Operate

Three levels of hardware management, from vendor coordination to full predictive operations. Response times are set by incident severity, not your service level.

Service Levels

Pick the level that matches your team

How much of hardware operations do you want to keep? Bronze keeps your team in the driver's seat with Arc handling vendors. Silver hands Arc the pager. Gold adds prediction, optimization, and a dedicated engineer who knows your cluster personally. Whatever the level, the SLA clock runs on incident severity, so a critical outage gets a 15-minute response whether you're on Bronze, SIlver, or Gold.

Arc Coordinates.
You Operate.

The baseline every engagement includes. Your team keeps monitoring and remediation. Arc takes vendor wrangling off your plate.

Who Bronze is for

Teams with mature monitoring and an in-house hardware ops function that want the OEM overhead gone. Bronze is also the right entry point if you've been burned by a full-service MSP and want to keep control while offloading the part of the job nobody enjoys.

OEM warranty coordination

Arc opens, tracks, and chases warranty claims and RMAs across every vendor in your bill of materials, so a failed part never dies in a support queue.

Incident intake and escalation

A single intake point for hardware incidents. Arc triages, assigns severity, and routes escalation through the right OEM path.

Front-end network monitoring

Baseline monitoring of your north-south network, with anomalies flagged to your team.

Scheduled health checks

Periodic cluster-wide checks across GPU, CPU, memory, power, and cooling, with findings and recommendations reported to your team.

Arc Operates.
You Build.

Everything in Bronze, plus 24x7 hardware operations. Arc becomes your hardware ops team so your engineers stay on models and workloads.

Who Silver is for

Organizations without an in-house hardware ops team, and teams that have one but want it back on higher-value work. Silver is the default for new cluster deployments, where Arc scopes management into the build before the first rack ships, and the most common landing point for takeovers from self-management or another provider.

24x7 telemetry across seven layers

GPU, CPU, memory, NVLink, thermal, power, and ECC monitored continuously, with degradation caught on the trend line.

East-west fabric management

InfiniBand, RoCE, RDMA, and storage networking monitored and managed as first-class infrastructure, with link health tracked to individual ports.

Firmware and driver lifecycle

Updates tested against your workloads, scheduled into planned maintenance windows, and applied on a managed cadence.

Power and PDU monitoring

Rack-level power draw tracked against capacity, with anomalies caught before they become outages.

Onsite spares management

Critical spares stocked at your facility and inventoried against your bill of materials, so repairs happen in hours instead of shipping cycles.

Capacity reporting and operational reviews

Utilization trends and growth data reviewed with your team every quarter.

Arc Predicts.
You Plan Ahead.

Everything in Silver, plus prediction, optimization, and a dedicated engineer. Failures get fixed before they happen, and leadership gets the reporting to prove it.

Who Gold is for

Organizations running mission-critical or multi-site GPU infrastructure, teams in regulated industries that need documented operational rigor, and any company where the answer to "who worries about the hardware" should be "nobody here."

Predictive failure detection

ECC drift, thermal creep, and NVLink error trends modeled across your fleet, so components are replaced in planned windows before they fail.

Fabric tuning and performance optimization

Continuous tuning of fabric, scheduling, and configuration to keep real workload throughput at its ceiling.

Automated patching and self-healing

Routine remediation runs without a human in the loop, and known failure patterns trigger automatic recovery.

Multi-site management

One operating model, one point of contact, and one reporting stack across every location, including cabling and optics health.

dedicated engineer

One person who knows your cluster, your workloads, and your history.

Capacity forecasting

Growth modeling that ties expansion timing to workload demand, so capacity decisions happen ahead of need.

Monthly operational reviews and quarterly executive briefings

Optimization actions, downtime avoided, and long-term recommendations, delivered in the language your leadership reads.

Response

Severity Sets the Clock. Your Level Sets Who Drives.

Response times are driven by the nature of the incident, not by your service level. A production-down event gets the same 15-minute response on every level. What changes by level is how much of the remediation Arc owns.

Severity
Description
Response
Resolution Target
On-Site Support
1 / Critical
Complete outage, production impact.
15 minutes
Immediate
Coordinated within hours
2 / High
Significant degradation, partial outage.
1 hour

3 / Medium
Degraded performance, workaround available.
4 hours
24 hours

4 / Low

By request
On Bronze

Arc handles intake, severity assignment, and OEM escalation. Your team drives remediation with Arc coordinating parts and vendors.

On Silver

Arc drives resolution end to end, with onsite spares cutting repair time from shipping cycles to hours.

On Gold

A dedicated engineer runs root-cause analysis, self-healing handles known patterns, and every incident closes with a post-incident report.

On-site support by severity: Sev 1 coordinated within hours, Sev 2 next business day, Sev 3 by arrangement, Sev 4 by request. Timelines depend on site location and access.
