A component listed here does not necessarily mean a full outage — large providers routinely report maintenance on individual locations. It only affects the verdict above when the vendor marks it major or critical and our own checks also saw Cloudflare fail from enough regions to rule out probe noise.

Reachability by region

Each region runs its own request from a different part of the world. A service can be up for one continent and down for another, which is usually the first sign of a routing or CDN problem.

What Cloudflare does

Cloudflare is a global network that provides CDN, DDoS protection, DNS, and security services to millions of websites. It acts as a reverse proxy between visitors and websites, caching content and filtering malicious traffic. Cloudflare handles a significant percentage of global internet traffic and provides the 1.1.1.1 public DNS resolver.

What an outage looks like

Cloudflare outages typically cause websites to display "Error 502", "Error 520", or "Error 522" pages with the Cloudflare logo. DNS resolution may fail for domains using Cloudflare's nameservers, and websites behind Cloudflare may become completely unreachable even if the origin server is healthy.

What to do about it

Check www.cloudflarestatus.com for current incidents. If you manage a site behind Cloudflare, you can temporarily switch DNS to point directly to your origin server as a workaround. For 1.1.1.1 DNS issues, switch to an alternative resolver like 8.8.8.8 (Google) or 9.9.9.9 (Quad9) temporarily.

Is it down for everyone, or just you?

If this page says Cloudflare is up but it is not loading for you, the problem is between you and them. Run a check against any URL from up to 18 cities across three regions to find out where it breaks.

Cloudflare outage FAQ

Why do I see Cloudflare error pages on sites I don't own?
Many websites use Cloudflare as their CDN and security layer. When Cloudflare has issues, the error pages it generates appear on all websites using its network. The website owner may not even be aware of the issue since it's happening at the CDN layer, not on their servers.
Does a Cloudflare outage affect 1.1.1.1 DNS?
Cloudflare's DNS resolver (1.1.1.1) runs on separate infrastructure from their CDN and security services. However, in major incidents, both systems can be affected. If 1.1.1.1 is down, switch your device's DNS to 8.8.8.8 or 9.9.9.9 as a temporary fix.
Can Cloudflare's outage take down the entire internet?
While Cloudflare handles a massive share of web traffic, it cannot take down the entire internet. During major Cloudflare outages, sites not using Cloudflare continue to work normally. However, the impact can feel widespread because millions of popular sites rely on Cloudflare's network.
What do Cloudflare error codes mean?
Error 502 means Cloudflare couldn't reach the origin server. Error 520 means the origin returned an unexpected response. Error 522 means the connection timed out. Error 524 means the origin responded too slowly. During Cloudflare outages, these errors appear even when origin servers are functioning normally.
How can I check if a site is down because of Cloudflare?
Look at the error page for the Cloudflare logo or ray ID. You can also check if the site's DNS points to Cloudflare IPs using a tool like dig or nslookup. If the error page shows Cloudflare branding and www.cloudflarestatus.com reports an incident, Cloudflare is likely the cause.

How we measure this

  • We request Cloudflare's public endpoint every 30 minutes from Fly.io regions across six continents — the most recent check ran from 18 of them.
  • A region counts as down only when it gets no usable HTTP response. A 403 or 429 means the origin answered and refused us, which we report as blocked, never as an outage.
  • A single failing region is treated as probe noise. We only change the verdict when two consecutive cycles agree.
  • Response times average only the regions that actually served the page, so a timeout never inflates the number.
  • Where Cloudflare publishes an official status feed we read it too. An all-clear from the vendor can soften an unconfirmed degradation; a vendor-declared outage only worsens our verdict when our own checks corroborate it.
