AWS CloudFront is Amazon Web Services’ content delivery network, used to distribute web pages, video, applications, and other files through edge locations around the world. Developers and operations teams configure it through the AWS console, APIs, and infrastructure tools to cache content, serve static assets, and route requests with low latency. It is commonly used alongside other AWS services for website delivery and application acceleration.
CheckUpstream measured AWS CloudFront at 100.000% availability across 2812 independent checks (global · cloudfront). AWS publishes no catalogue of the services it reports on, so an incident reaches this page only when AWS names this product in the event itself. A quiet page here means AWS named no event for it — not that we have measured anything. 1 incident was recorded in the past 12 months; the most recent resolved 46 days ago after 28 hours. Status signals are polled from AWS CloudFront's official status feed, alongside independent probes and community reports.

Share of our own checks against AWS CloudFront endpoints that returned AWS CloudFront's expected response. Evidence that their API edge is answering correctly — not that every product behind it works.
AWS CloudFront posted no incidents in this window. That is either a clean run or a communication policy — from outside, the two look identical.
Fewer incidents in the last 30 days than 55% of 232 tracked services.

Does AWS CloudFront actually matter to you?
A AWS CloudFront outage only matters if something you ship depends on it. Point us at a public repository and we will read its dependencies and tell you — no account, nothing stored.

Developers and operations teams configure it through the AWS console, APIs, and infrastructure tools to cache content, serve static assets, and route requests with low latency. It is commonly used alongside other AWS services for website delivery and application acceleration.
We poll AWS CloudFront's official status page on a 1-5 minute cadence, parse its RSS / Atom feed as a fallback, ingest community signals from social platforms, and aggregate per-org SDK telemetry. Multiple sources reduce false positives versus any single feed alone.
