Cloud Providers Health Report - January 2023

Check our January 2023 health report on the top most popular cloud providers. We analyze the health of the cloud providers based on the number of outages and problems during the month. The source of the data is made available by the cloud providers themselves via their status page. We normalize it and use it to generate the report.

Please analyze the information with a grain of salt as each provider has their own framework for reporting incidents, and in no way one provider having more outages, means that they are worse than any other. Also, we are comparing providers with very different sizes and market share.

In this report, we compare AWS, Azure, DigitalOcean, Fly.io, Google Cloud, Heroku, Linode, Netlify, Vercel according to their reported outages.
