checked responded in 49msHTTP 200

Over the last 7 days, DigitalOcean has answered our automated checks with 100.00% availability and a typical response time of ~37 ms. According to DigitalOcean's official status page, the most recent outage began 2026-08-24 17:14 UTC and lasted 1d 1h (severity: down). It was reported as "Cloud Control Panel and API".

DigitalOcean offers straightforward virtual machines, managed databases, Kubernetes, and object storage aimed at smaller teams. Its incidents are usually confined to a single datacentre region, so Droplets in one location become unreachable or slow while identical resources elsewhere are unaffected.

Is DigitalOcean down for everyone or just you?

Our automated checks are reaching DigitalOcean normally right now, and it answered our last one in 49ms. That makes any trouble you are hitting more likely to be local to your connection, account or network than a full outage, which usually means you can fix it from your end.

Measured since 2026-08-12. Windows reaching further back are averaged over the 86 days we watched, not the full period. Counts our own checks. Days DigitalOcean reported an incident are coloured in the timeline above but do not change this figure.

What to do if DigitalOcean is down for just you

  • Check whether the problem is limited to one region before assuming a global outage, since most cloud incidents are regional.
  • Query a second DNS resolver (1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8) to rule out a resolution problem rather than a provider one.
  • Test from a different network or a machine outside the affected region, which separates a routing issue from a service issue.
  • Look at the provider's own per-service dashboard below, as one product can be degraded while everything else is healthy.
