Blog Who hosts the internet's status pages
9,846 official status pages by the platform that serves them, and by how well known their companies are. Atlassian hosts half of them, and most belong to companies outside the top million websites.
Most software companies that people depend on have a public status page, and most of them rent it from a platform rather than build it. We follow 9,846 of these pages, from AWS and GitHub to small SaaS tools, and looked at who serves them and who they belong to.
Atlassian hosts half of them
Of the 9,679 pages that run on a status page platform, Atlassian Statuspage hosts 4,784, almost exactly half. When people picture a status page, with green bars per component and incident updates underneath, they're picturing Statuspage.
Its format reaches further than its own customers. incident.io, fourth with 653 pages, serves the same JSON as Statuspage, so 56% of all these pages can be read the same way.
Better Stack is a clear second with 19%, and Instatus third with 10%. Both are newer than Statuspage, and both tie the page to their own uptime monitoring, so a page can turn red without anyone writing an incident.
After the top four the field is wide and thin: the other nine platforms share about 15% between them.
The self-hosted option is bigger than we expected: 405 companies run Uptime Kuma, the open-source monitor, on their own servers and publish its status page.
The biggest clouds don't use any of these, which is why they're not in the chart. AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, Salesforce and a handful of others run their own status dashboards, and between them they publish 167 separate regions and products, from AWS's 36 regions to each of the 35 Google Workspace apps.
Most pages belong to companies you've never heard of
Only 74 of the pages belong to a top-1,000 website, and 328 to the top 10,000. Half, 4,979, belong to companies whose website isn't in the top million at all.
Those are the tools that matter a great deal to a few thousand customers each, like a booking system for gyms or a payroll tool for one country. When one of them goes down, its customers search for its name and "down", and the official status page is often the only place with an answer.
What's not in here
These are the 9,846 pages Stackpulse follows. Companies with a custom-built status page, or none at all, aren't in them.
Every one of the 9,846 has its own page on Stackpulse, with its current status and 90 days of history. You can search them or see what's down right now.
Stackpulse watches the official status pages of 9,800+ services, and tells you when one you rely on has a problem.
