This issue is now fully resolved. Our Engineering team have identified additional guardrails to prevent this specific issue from happening in future.

Monitoring2026-09-03 14:25 UTC

We have confirmed that all services have fully resumed. Our Engineering team are currently monitoring the situation. Playback has now fully resumed without issue. New uploads during the outage have failed and thus would need re-uploading. Existing transcoding videos were not lost, however the status reported on some of these videos may be inaccurate as a result.

Monitoring2026-09-03 14:01 UTC

We are observing some isolated issues on the back of the fix. We are working to fully restore the process on our platform.

Monitoring2026-09-03 14:00 UTC

We have identified a backend database issue which had caused a timeout across our video servers (to include our player and uploading process). The problem was rectified and we are now monitoring the situation.

Investigating2026-09-03 13:47 UTC

Our Engineering team are currently investigating an issue on our Stream platform of playback failures on our embedded players, as well as upload failures to our platform.

Follow bunny.net

Your coding agent knows when bunny.net is down, and tells you when a failure is theirs, not yours. You can also get bunny.net incidents in a feed reader or in Slack.

Prompt
Install the outages.live MCP server, so that when something breaks you can tell if the cause is a provider we depend on and not my code. It reads the official status pages of cloud, AI, payment and developer providers and gives you their incidents as MCP tools.

Add it as a remote MCP server named "outages" at https://outages.cc/mcp (Streamable HTTP, no authentication), with your CLI command or your MCP config file.

Then:
1. Make sure it connects and shows the tools get_provider, list_feed and send_feedback.
2. Call get_provider with "bunny" and tell me if bunny.net has a problem right now.
3. From now on, when a call to a third-party service fails or becomes slow, call get_provider for that service before you change my code.

Paste this into any coding agent. It adds the server with its own MCP setup.
