The independent record of how cloud vendors actually behave
When production breaks, the first question is "is it us or them?", and the honest answer used to require a dozen browser tabs. OutageDeck watches the official status feeds of 172 cloud and SaaS providers so that question takes one page, one API call, or one alert in the channel your team already reads.
Why it exists
Every vendor publishes a status page about itself, graded on its own scale, with its own history conveniently scoped. What did not exist was an independent record across vendors: the same vocabulary for every provider, uptime history a vendor cannot quietly rewrite, and incident timelines that stay linkable after the banner comes down. OutageDeck is that record. It is built for the engineer mid-incident first, and for the postmortem, the vendor review, and the renewal negotiation after that.
Who builds it
OutageDeck is built and operated by Kerolos Atallah, a software engineer who got tired of checking twelve status pages to answer one question. It is deliberately a small operation with a serious engineering bar: exactly-once alert delivery, security headers and a supply-chain audit on every committed asset, and a public changelog that shows the shipping pace instead of claiming it.
The product is funded by its paid plans. The public status pages, API, badges, and feeds stay free and account-less, and personal data is never sold; the short version of the data practices is in the privacy policy.
The rules it holds itself to
- Official sources only. Every status is read from the vendor's own published feed and links back to it. No probing, no crowd reports, no guessing. The full method is on the methodology page.
- Honest numbers. Major outages and partial or regional impact are reported separately, long-open incidents are annotated rather than hidden, and uptime is never backfilled for time OutageDeck did not observe.
- Held to its own standard. OutageDeck publishes its own status page in the same vocabulary it applies to every tracked vendor, and is candid about the limits of any self-hosted status page.
- Independent. OutageDeck is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by any provider it tracks. Provider names and logos identify the services monitored, nothing more.
