When connected to "drifts-" I'm pretty sure it can only refer to services. Especially when it says "oppstart av driftsytelsene." When ytelse is connected, for example, to "system", then it often means performance (as in response time, etc.) or alone, it could mean performance or deliverable or service, depending on context.
