About Canary Status and Outage Monitoring

IsDown has monitored Canary continuously since August 2020, tracking this Other for 5 years. Over that time, we've documented 71 outages and incidents, averaging 1.1 per month.

We monitor Canary's official status page across 5 components. IsDown interprets Canary statuses (operational, degraded performance, partial outage, and major outage) to deliver precise health metrics and filter alerts by the components you actually use.

To check if Canary is down, IsDown combines official status data with user reports for early detection. Vendors often delay acknowledging problems, so user reports help us alert you before the official announcement.

Engineering and operations teams rely on IsDown to track Canary status and receive verified outage alerts through Slack, Teams, PagerDuty, or 20+ other integrations.

How IsDown Monitors Canary

IsDown checks Canary's status page every few minutes, across all 5 components. We combine official status data with user reports to detect when Canary is down, often before the vendor announces it.

When Canary status changes, IsDown sends alerts to your preferred channels. Filter by severity to skip noise and focus on outages that affect your business.

What you get when monitoring Canary with IsDown

Track Canary incidents and downtimes by severity

IsDown checks Canary official status page for major/minor outages or downtimes. A major outage is when Canary experiences a critical issue that severely affects one or more services/regions. A minor incident is when Canary experiences a small issue affecting a small percentage of its customer's applications. An example is the performance degradation of an application. The moment we detect a Canary outage, we send you an alert and update your dashboard and status page.

Get alerted as soon as users report problems with Canary

Canary and other vendors don't always report outages on time. IsDown collects user reports to provide early detection of outages. This way, even without an official status update, you can stay ahead of possible problems.

All the details of Canary outages and downtimes

IsDown collects all information from the outages published in Canary status page to provide the context of the outage. If available, we gather the title, description, time of the outage, status, and outage updates. Another important piece of information is the affected services/regions which we use to filter the notifications that impact your business.

Prepare for upcoming Canary maintenance events

Canary publishes scheduled maintenance events on their status page. IsDown collects all the information for each event and creates a feed that people can follow to ensure they are not surprised by unexpected downtime or problems. We also send the feed in our weekly report, alerting the next maintenances that will take place.

Only get alerted on the Canary outages that impact your business

IsDown monitors Canary and all their 5 components that can be affected by an outage. IsDown allows you to filter the notifications and status page alerts based on the components you care about. For example, you can choose which components or regions affect your business and filter out all other outages. This way you avoid alert fatigue in your team.
