Internet & cloud outages — May 2026

No widespread internet outage is in progress. Core cloud and CDN providers — AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, GitHub, OpenAI, Discord, Fastly, and Vercel — are all reporting normal operations. A few minor, localized incidents are active: • Cloudflare: Durable Objects saw elevated startup errors in the Atlanta region (a fix is deployed and being monitored), and the Cloudflare for SaaS Custom Hostname API is showing increased latency (under investigation). Existing custom hostnames are unaffected. • Twilio: Carrier-specific SMS delivery and authentication delays affecting select networks in Brazil, Indonesia, Taiwan, and Australia. • Zoom: A minor Giphy GIF issue limited to older desktop client versions (7.0.0–7.0.4). These are partial, provider-specific issues with no broad user impact. Recently resolved (past 72 hours): a May 29 Azure disruption affecting Azure OpenAI across several regions and multiple services in West US 2, and a brief May 30 Cloudflare issue accessing Workers secrets. Overall, the internet is up and operating normally.

The global internet is operating normally as of May 29, 2026. Checks across major cloud providers, CDNs, DNS infrastructure, and platform status pages show no widespread, internet-wide disruption. A few localized incidents are worth noting. Microsoft Azure is investigating a multi-service degradation in its West US 2 region, which began at 04:27 UTC following a datacenter power event. More than 20 services — including App Service, Cosmos DB, Storage, Virtual Machines, and Azure Kubernetes Service — saw increased latency, intermittent connectivity, and timeouts. Microsoft reports mitigation is underway with signs of recovery. The impact is regional rather than global, though some downstream platforms (such as Snowflake) reported knock-on effects. Cloudflare has applied a fix and is monitoring an issue that caused 502 errors on a subset of Pages uploads (began May 28). Zoom is investigating a minor degradation affecting GIF search and sending in chat on client versions 7.0.0–7.0.4. AWS's Middle East regions (ME-CENTRAL-1 and ME-SOUTH-1) remain impaired following earlier infrastructure damage, with recovery expected to take time; this issue is geographically contained. Google Cloud, GitHub, OpenAI, Discord, Atlassian, Slack, Vercel, and Fastly all report systems operational. Recently resolved: GitHub cleared elevated error rates on May 28, and brief early-morning blips on ChatGPT (~21 min) and Xbox Live (~72 min) have ended. Bottom line: a handful of localized provider incidents, but no widespread outage. The internet is up.

The internet's core infrastructure is operating normally today. Major cloud providers — Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure — and CDNs including Cloudflare and Fastly report no significant incidents. GitHub, OpenAI, Discord, Atlassian, Vercel, and DigitalOcean are all fully operational. The most notable disruption today is at Slack. Beginning around 6:30 AM ET, Slack's status page flagged degraded messaging, apps/API, and canvas functionality, with reports of severe latency across all services. More than 6,000 users across the US, UK, and Australia reported problems, primarily with sending and receiving messages. The impact is limited to Slack's own platform and is partial rather than a full outage; Slack engineers are working on a fix. A few smaller, localized issues are also in play. Twilio is reporting carrier-level SMS/MMS delivery delays on specific US routes (Verizon MMS, Google Voice SMS) and Australian sender-ID registration problems. Zoom's Giphy integration in chat is degraded. Charter Spectrum saw a brief early-morning spike in US subscriber outage reports. Cloudflare is running scheduled datacenter maintenance in several locations (Seattle, Salt Lake City, Düsseldorf, Singapore) that may add minor latency in affected regions but is not an outage. Overall, there is no internet-wide disruption. Core routing, DNS, cloud, and CDN infrastructure are healthy. Today's impact is concentrated in Slack's messaging platform and a handful of localized carrier and ISP issues.

The global internet is operating normally on May 27, 2026, with no widespread outages reported across major providers.

The internet is operating normally worldwide. There is no widespread outage today, and core connectivity, DNS, and routing are healthy. A handful of provider-level incidents are worth noting but none are causing internet-wide disruption. Cloudflare is reporting degraded performance in several areas. Its Bot Management feature was disabled globally after detection rules (IDs 50331648 and 50331649) misfired; Cloudflare plans to re-enable detections on Monday, May 18, after weekend stability monitoring. A PayPal billing issue and degraded Email Routing are also being monitored. General Cloudflare traffic delivery is unaffected. Elsewhere, AWS shows only minor, region-specific component issues (Bahrain/UAE) with the broader platform operational. Twilio has localized SMS delivery problems (Mexico/AT&T, certain US short codes to Google Voice, and Australian Sender ID registrations). On the physical-infrastructure side, East African connectivity remains affected by submarine cable faults on the EASSy and Seacom systems reported around May 12, a regional rather than global issue. Major platforms — Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, GitHub, OpenAI, Discord, Akamai, Fastly, Slack, Vercel, and DigitalOcean — are all reporting normal operations. Recently resolved items in the past 72 hours include Cloudflare R2/Durable Object errors (May 16), a brief GitHub Actions degradation (May 15), and a DigitalOcean DNS/Let's Encrypt issue (May 14). Bottom line: the internet is up. A few services have isolated, mostly non-customer-facing degradations, but everyday connectivity is normal.

The internet is operating normally worldwide today. No major internet-wide outage is in progress. A handful of localized or service-specific incidents are being tracked, none of which amount to widespread disruption. Amazon Web Services: Minor, localized issues. EC2 connectivity problems were reported in an Asia-Pacific region (ap-southeast-1) on May 15, and a brief Amazon CloudFront DNS resolution issue caused 502 errors on some sites on May 13. AWS posted "multiple services operational issue" notices on May 13 and 14; impact appears limited and largely recovered. Separately, the larger US-EAST-1 thermal-event outage occurred May 7-8 and was resolved last week. Cloudflare: The core network is healthy. Bot Management is in a degraded state — an over-matching rule issue led Cloudflare to globally disable the affected feature, with a stabilization and review window of roughly 72 hours. Email Routing is also reported as degraded. General end-user web traffic is not broadly affected. Twilio: Regional SMS delivery delays and failures affecting Thailand, AT&T subscribers in Mexico, and US short codes to Google Voice. These are messaging-specific and geographically limited. Other minor items: Vercel is investigating a workflow usage-metering miscalculation (billing data only, no service impact); DigitalOcean has scheduled Functions maintenance in its Sydney (SYD1) region; GitHub resolved a brief Actions degradation earlier today. All clear: Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, OpenAI, Discord, Slack, and Atlassian report no active incidents. Bottom line: The internet is up.

The internet is broadly stable today. Major cloud platforms — Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, and OpenAI — all report normal operations, and no internet-wide BGP incidents or undersea cable disruptions are currently being reported. A handful of minor, contained issues are worth noting: • Cloudflare Bot Management: Two specific bot-detection rules (IDs 50331648 and 50331649) had been matching traffic unexpectedly since April 1. Cloudflare has disabled the affected feature; detections are expected to stabilize over the next 48 hours. • .de domain DNSSEC validation: Cloudflare has temporarily disabled DNSSEC validation for .de domains on its 1.1.1.1 public resolver, due to signing problems at DENIC, the German domain registry. Validation will resume once DENIC confirms its issues are resolved. • Cloudflare Access audit logs: A backlog of audit logs from April 28–29 is still being ingested. No data was lost. • AWS Middle East (UAE) region: Third-party trackers report partial issues affecting AWS IoT Core, Amazon MQ, and AWS Transit Gateway in the UAE region. Impact is regional, not global. AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud status pages otherwise show all services operational. • Scheduled maintenance: Cloudflare has maintenance windows today in its Minneapolis (MSP) and Sydney (SYD) datacenters that may cause minor latency increases for users in those regions. Overall, the internet is up.

Tuesday, May 5, 2026. The global internet is operating normally, with no widespread or major outages reported. Core cloud and infrastructure providers — AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, and Fastly — show no active incidents, and BGP routing remains stable. A handful of smaller, isolated incidents are being tracked: - Cloudflare has three open issues: a fix is being deployed for errors when adding R2 custom domains; an unexpected increase in Bot Management false positives tied to specific detection IDs; and a backlog of delayed Cloudflare Access audit logs from April 28–29 is still being processed.
