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 Kinsta does

Kinsta is a managed host for WordPress sites, applications and databases, running customer workloads across cloud regions behind its own CDN and Cloudflare integration. Agencies and businesses use the MyKinsta panel for deploys, backups, DNS and cache control, so an incident can hit the hosted sites, the management panel, or a single data centre in isolation.

What an outage looks like

Sites return 502 or 504 errors, or load slowly for visitors in one part of the world while everyone else is unaffected, which points at one data centre rather than the platform. MyKinsta can fail to list sites or refuse cache purges and backup restores. DNS hosted at Kinsta may stop resolving, which takes email routing down alongside the website.

What to do about it

Check status.kinsta.com, which lists MyKinsta, Kinsta.com, the API, CDN, DNS, the support system and outbound email, plus a row for each data centre, so you can confirm whether your site's region is involved. Kinsta publishes only major outages there and sends smaller, customer-specific alerts inside MyKinsta, so sign in and check your account before concluding the platform is healthy.

Is it down for everyone, or just you?

If this page says Kinsta 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 17 cities across three regions to find out where it breaks.

Kinsta outage FAQ

Is Kinsta down or is only my data centre affected?

Find your site's region in MyKinsta and then read that data centre's row on the status page, because Kinsta reports each one separately. A site in Amsterdam can be failing while every other region is at full uptime. Visitors far from the affected region may report the site as fine, which is consistent with a single-region incident rather than evidence against one.

Why is there nothing on the status page when my site is broken?

Kinsta states that it posts major outages to the status page and reports problems affecting a small number of customers directly to those customers in MyKinsta. A fault confined to your environment is therefore expected to be absent from the public page. Sign in and look for alerts on the account before assuming nobody has noticed.

Does a Kinsta outage affect my email?

It can, indirectly. Kinsta does not host mailboxes, but it does run DNS, and if your domain's DNS is served by Kinsta then a DNS incident stops mail being routed to whichever provider holds your mailboxes. Outbound email from the sites themselves is a separately monitored component, so transactional mail from WordPress can fail while the site serves pages normally.

Are backups and staging sites available during an outage?

Not dependably, because both are reached through MyKinsta and the panel is one of the components that can be down. Existing backups are not lost, but restoring one may have to wait until the panel returns. That is worth knowing before you plan a recovery that depends on rolling back, since the rollback tool and the broken site can be unavailable together.

Does Kinsta's CDN keep my site up if the origin fails?

Only for content it already holds. Cached assets and pages can keep serving while the origin is failing, so a site often looks partly alive: static pages load and anything dynamic or logged in errors out. The CDN and the data centres are listed as separate components precisely because they fail independently of one another.

How we measure this

We request Kinsta's public endpoint every 6 hours from Fly.io regions across six continents — the most recent check ran from 8 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 Kinsta 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.
