What to do when DigitalOcean is down
  • Check status.digitalocean.com to see if the outage is region-specific — your Droplets in unaffected regions may still be running normally.
  • If your Droplet is unreachable, avoid destroying and recreating it — the underlying data is likely intact and will be accessible after the outage.
  • Set up monitoring and alerting outside of DigitalOcean (e.g., UptimeRobot) so you are notified independently of their infrastructure.
  • Report the outage on this page to help other users confirm the problem.
Common DigitalOcean outage causes

DigitalOcean outages are typically region-specific, affecting Droplets in particular data centers while others remain healthy. Networking issues, hypervisor failures, and block storage problems are the most common root causes.
