The Status Overview tab shows the operational current status of events and core services that power Uptime.com.

The Current Status definitions are as follows:

  • Degraded Performance: Experiencing delays or lower performance.
  • Partial Outage: Some services may not be functioning.
  • Major Outage: Complete disruption of services.

In addition to the Status Overview tab, several sub-tabs are available to narrow down reporting as follows:

Active Incidents

Active Maintenance

Shows any ongoing maintenance activities. This section details which services might be impacted and the expected duration of maintenance.

Scheduled Maintenance

Lists upcoming maintenance activities. This will allow you to prepare for potential service disruptions during scheduled windows.

Component Current Status

Gives a real-time overview of each core component (e.g., Web Monitoring, API) and whether they are operational, degraded, or experiencing outages. Each service is color-coded for easy identification.

The Uptime.com Probe Status page provides real-time operational data for Uptime.com’s global network of monitoring probes.

Each probe's current status is displayed, including its location and whether it is operational, degraded, or experiencing an outage.

 

This page is useful if you suspect that the probe servers  monitoring  your checks are encountering any issues. In contrast, the main Status Page provides a complete overview of our components and the overall health of Uptime.com services.

  • Email: Get notified by email of any service disruptions or resolutions.
  • Slack: Connect to your slack channel to receive direct notifications
  • RSS: Receive notifications via your RSS feed
  • SMS: Text notifications for faster updates.
  • Webhooks: Automated notifications via webhooks for integration into custom applications or alert systems.
