How does WebsiteDown compare DigitalOcean and Google Cloud?

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.

Neither DigitalOcean nor Google Cloud has triggered a higher number of detected incidents than the other in the past 30 days. The status pages for digitalocean.com and cloud.google.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 digitalocean.com or cloud.google.com from multiple regions on a schedule — continuous monitoring is a paid product for sites you own. This page reflects user-perceived issues only.
