QoS: capacity in Miami (MIA) · Q-04
xserv-q-37dbda6b3ab7
Runbook Q-04 for QoS in Miami (MIA). Marker xserv-q-37dbda6b3ab7. This page covers capacity for LATAM operators, not a worldwide average.
QoS: Failure modes we actually see
Capacity notes for q-04 assume rainy-season power in Miami and festival peaks toward São Paulo. The failure we actually see is a single uplink, not a cartoon partition of the whole continent. Spare ports and a second provider sit on the same runbook.
QoS: How this letter ties to the rest
Handoff from letter Q QoS into the rest of the platform uses the same request IDs as the gateway. Runbook q-05 names who accepts the ticket after São Paulo pages out. Santiago does not silently inherit the incident.
QoS: A note on cost and transit
Rollback for q-06 is a documented command, not a hope. Transit is billed as backup while QoS prefers peering in Santiago. If cost spikes, the runbook cuts overflow to Bogotá before touching customer prefixes.
QoS policy Q-03
Policy for QoS is versioned as q-03. Operators measure error rate, p95 from Bogotá, and time-to-rollback — not a worldwide average. Changes land in Bogotá first, then Miami, with a hold if either region regresses.

QoS handoff Q-05

QoS rollback Q-06
Rollback for q-06 is a documented command, not a hope. Transit is billed as backup while QoS prefers peering in Santiago. If cost spikes, the runbook cuts overflow to Bogotá before touching customer prefixes.
- Is transit the default path?
- No. Peering in Miami is default; transit to São Paulo is overflow and is billed that way.
- Does QoS on letter Q share fate with other letters?
- The control plane is shared. Data-plane queues for QoS stay isolated, so incident q-01 cannot drain neighbor letters.
