Check if DataCite is down, official outages, user-reported issues, and outages map.
DataCite is working normally
This chart displays the number of user-reported issues over the past 24 hours, grouped into 20-minute intervals. It's normal to see occasional reports, which may be due to individual user issues rather than a broader problem. We only consider an issue widespread if there are multiple reports within a short timeframe. Sign up for free to see more DataCite status data.
IsDown has tracked 73 incidents since started monitoring DataCite status in February 2021. We collect data from 4522+ services, and normalize the data to give you a clear picture of the impact of the outage.

Because IsDown is a status page aggregator, which means that we aggregate the status of multiple cloud services. You can monitor DataCite and all the services that impact your business. Get a dashboard with the health of all services and status updates. Set up notifications via Slack, Datadog, PagerDuty, and more, when a service you monitor has issues or when maintenances are scheduled.
IsDown and DownDetector help users determine if DataCite is having problems. The big difference is that IsDown is a status page aggregator. IsDown monitors a service's official status page to give our customers a more reliable source of information instead of just relying on reports from users. The integration allows us to provide more details about DataCite's Outages, like incident title, description, updates, and the parts of the affected service. Additionally, users can create internal status pages and set up notifications for all their third-party services.
Compared to DataCite's official status page IsDown offers way more control and visibility over what's going on.
We aggregate the status of all the services you've dependent on. Have a clear view of all your dependencies and their status.
We send you an alert whenever we detect a new incident from official sources or crowdsourced reports. You will be the first to know when there is an issue with your dependencies.
Aggregate all the status information in one status page (public or private). You can also send the information and alerts to your team's tools, such as Slack, Datadog, Microsoft Teams, PagerDuty, and more.
