At this time, customers should no longer experience errors with: New account registration Droplet creation Reserved IP allocation Automated Backups and Snapshots operations Droplet Autoscale scaling operations DOKS cluster operations GenAI services Access to the Droplet console Database cluster creation We will continue to monitor the situation to ensure that all services are stable and functioning as expected. We will post an update as soon as the issue is fully resolved.
Our Engineering team continues to work on implementing and rolling out a fix for the issue affecting multiple services across multiple regions, including new account registration, Droplets, Reserved IPs, Automated Backups and Snapshots, Droplet Autoscale, DOKS clusters, GenAI services, the Droplet console, and Database cluster creation. Customers may continue to experience the previously reported service disruptions while remediation efforts remain in progress. We will provide another update as soon as more information becomes available.
Our Engineering team has identified the root cause of the issue affecting new account registration, Droplets, Reserved IPs, Snapshots, and DOKS clusters across multiple regions. Customers may experience the following: Unable to create new accounts Unable to create Droplets Unable to allocate Reserved IPs Failures with Automated Backups and Snapshots operations Droplet Autoscale scaling operations not working as expected DOKS cluster operations failing GenAI services impacted Unable to access the Droplet console Database clusters stuck in a "Creating" state Our Engineering team is working on implementing a fix and we will provide another update as soon as more information becomes available.
Our Engineering team is continuing to investigate reports of an issue affecting new account registration, Reserved IPs, Snapshots, Droplets and Droplet-based services across multiple regions. During this time, customers may be unable to create new accounts, create Droplets, allocate Reserved IPs, or perform Automated Backups and Snapshots operations. Droplet Autoscale scaling operations and DOKS cluster operations are also affected. Further investigation has found that GenAI services are also affected due to this issue, customers may also be unable to access the Droplet console, and Database clusters may be stuck in a "Creating" state. Our Engineering team is actively investigating the issue and we will provide another update as soon as more information becomes available.

DigitalOcean·App Platform Deployments
Between 04:34 and 12:15 UTC, customers experienced service interruptions affecting App Platform deployment operations. During this window, customers may have been unable to deploy new applications or scale existing deployments. Applications already running prior to the incident were unaffected and continued to operate normally. The disruption was caused by a software update that prevented application containers from starting on newly provisioned infrastructure nodes. Our Engineering team rolled back the update and restored the affected nodes. App Platform deployment and scaling operations have recovered and are operating normally. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this caused. If you continue to experience any issues, please open a support ticket and our team will be happy to assist you.

DigitalOcean·A Network Disruption in BLR1 Region Impacted Multiple Products (Resolved)
From 11:59 UTC to 13:02 UTC on October 3, 2026, a networking disruption in our BLR1 region affected multiple products, including Monitoring, App Platform, Managed Databases, Functions, Load Balancers, Spaces, and the Cloud Control Panel. During this period, some users experienced degraded connectivity, increased latency, or intermittent errors when accessing resources in the region. Multiple network paths operated by our upstream connectivity providers were unavailable, including redundant paths intended to maintain connectivity during a disruption. Traffic shifted to a remaining link with insufficient capacity to handle the full load, resulting in network saturation and the connectivity issues described above. Our Engineering and Network teams worked closely with our upstream providers to restore normal routing and connectivity. All affected services have since returned to normal operation. We apologize for the disruption and its impact on your work. If you continue to experience unex

Your coding agent knows when DigitalOcean is down, and tells you when a failure is theirs, not yours. You can also get DigitalOcean incidents in a feed reader or in Slack.
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 "digitalocean" and tell me if DigitalOcean 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.
