DigitalOcean Status FAQ

Is DigitalOcean down right now?

What should I do if DigitalOcean is not working?

Check the component list on this page first to see if your failure matches a known outage. If it does, you can report the issue for other engineers, follow the incident timeline for vendor updates, and run any fallback your app supports until DigitalOcean recovers.

How fast does PulsAPI detect DigitalOcean outages?

PulsAPI polls the official DigitalOcean status page every 60 seconds and usually delivers alerts to Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, PagerDuty, or email in under 4 seconds after detection. That is often faster than someone on your team notices on their own.
