Is Upstash down?
Live Upstash status, measured independently. We probe 5 Upstash endpoints from monitoring regions on every continent and record every outage we detect.
Upstash is having problems
Some of our probes are failing. Upstash may be partially down or degraded in specific regions.
Checked every minute from 6 regions on every continent.

Get notified when Upstash goes down
Follow these 5 checks from your own workspace and get alerted through Slack, email, webhooks, or on-call the moment Upstash goes down. They don't count against your monitor quota. Free plan, no card required.
About Upstash outages
Upstash offers Redis and messaging over HTTP, which makes it the default cache and queue for edge functions and serverless apps. Rate limiting, sessions, and background job scheduling via QStash all go through it, so an Upstash incident degrades many apps in subtle ways rather than taking them fully down.
What we check
Every row is a real monitor in upti.my, running from each of our regions. A failure in some regions marks the row degraded; failures from every region mark it down and open an outage.

Recent Upstash outages we detected
An outage is recorded when a probe fails from every monitoring region and closed when it recovers. Partial and single-region problems show as degraded above but are not listed here.
Upstash is up. Is your Upstash integration?
The incidents that actually hurt are usually not global outages. They are the parts of your own system that depend on Upstash and fail quietly. Here is what teams that rely on Upstash monitor on their side.
Your Redis database endpoint
Probe your own database's REST endpoint with a PING and your token. Regional Redis incidents show up there, not on the marketing site.
HTTP monitoring with headersQStash schedules
A schedule that stops firing is silent. A heartbeat on the receiving endpoint tells you when deliveries stop.
Heartbeat monitoringUpstash status: frequently asked questions
Yes. Many rate-limiting libraries fail open when Redis is unreachable, so an Upstash incident can look like rate limits simply not applying. Probe your database endpoint and alert on failures.
Look at the per-region results above. If our probes fail from every region, Upstash has a real outage and it will appear in the outage list. If they succeed everywhere, the problem is most likely on your side: your network, DNS resolver, a browser extension, a corporate proxy, or your own integration. If only some regions fail, Upstash may have a regional incident that does not affect you.
Every probe runs at least every five minutes from each monitoring region, and most run every minute. This page refreshes its data every minute. Uptime figures are calculated from all checks across all regions.
Official status is updated by people after an incident is confirmed and often lags the first failures by many minutes; our probes react within a minute or two. In the other direction, we only see public endpoints, so an internal incident may not show on our probes. Use both.
Yes. Use "Notify me about Upstash" above: your upti.my workspace follows these exact checks, free plan included, and every outage opens an incident there and routes alerts to Slack, email, webhooks, or on-call. Nothing is duplicated and it doesn't use your monitor quota. Better still, also monitor your own dependency on Upstash: the API route, webhook receiver, or scheduled job that calls it, so you learn about the failure that actually affects your users.
