AWS vs iCloud

Which is more reliable, AWS or iCloud?

Both AWS and iCloud have similar community-reported activity over the past 30 days (0 reports for AWS, 0 for iCloud; 0 vs 0 detected incidents). We don't probe either site continuously, so we report what users tell us — not a synthetic uptime score.

How does WebsiteDown compare AWS and iCloud?

We aggregate two real signals for each side: user-submitted "down" / "working" reports tracked in 24-hour, 7-day, and 30-day windows, and detected incidents (continuous spikes flagged by our snapshot pipeline when reports cross a 3× baseline threshold). We don't fabricate uptime percentages or response times for sites we don't continuously probe.

Has AWS or iCloud had any major outages recently?

Neither AWS nor iCloud has triggered a higher number of detected incidents than the other in the past 30 days. The status pages for aws.amazon.com and icloud.com list any current or recent incidents.

Where does this comparison data come from?

Two sources: (1) community reports submitted via the Report issue / Working buttons across our status pages, stored in our outage_reports table; (2) detected incidents from our snapshot pipeline, which flags anomalous spikes. We don't probe aws.amazon.com or icloud.com from multiple regions on a schedule — continuous monitoring is a paid product for sites you own. This page reflects user-perceived issues only.
