Outage tracker

Research and incident write-ups

What our probes measured during major outages, and how services compare over time. Every figure here names its window, its methodology version and how much coverage stands behind it, and nothing is ranked from a record shorter than the claim.

Two kinds of page live here. A write-up is the measured record of one outage we detected: which of our regions failed first, which recovered last, what people reported and what the vendor's own status page claimed over the same hours, frozen at publication. A reliability report ranks services within a category over a fixed window. The methodology page is the single description of what a reading means. Read as a feed: Atom.

Published

Nothing published yet. The first pieces will be rapid write-ups of outages our probes detect, published within hours of the event with the regional timeline and nothing invented; reliability reports follow once the services they rank have a full quarter of coverage. The schedule below says when.

Reliability by category, last 90 days

Recomputed on each visit from probe-detected outage events only, for services we watched throughout the window. A category shows a ranking only once every service in it has the coverage the claim needs; until then it says so, with the date that changes.

Not enough coverage yet

We have been tracking cloud and dev infra services since Aug 20, 2026. A reliability report and league table needs 90 days of coverage for every service it speaks for, and we are 87 days short; the earliest it could be published is Nov 18, 2026.

We do not publish a ranking, an average or a share from a record shorter than the claim it makes. The measurements keep accumulating in the meantime, and each service's own page shows everything we have measured so far.

What we publish, and when

Claims scale with coverage age. Each kind of piece has a coverage bar every service it speaks for must clear, and a sample floor. The dates below are computed from when our record actually began (the oldest service has been tracked since Aug 20, 2026, 3 days); a ranking of younger services unlocks later, per its youngest member. Methodology in force: version v2-2026-08-22.

The sample floor counts only what has a full record over the window; a service added part-way through is left out of a ranking, by name, rather than ranked on part of it.
