Over the past over 6 years, we have collected data on on more than 23 outages that affected Cogent DNS users. When Cogent DNS publishes downtime on their status page, they do so across 2 components using 2 different statuses: up and warn which we use to provide granular uptime metrics and notifications.
More than 100 StatusGator users monitor Cogent DNS to get notified when it's down or has an outage. This makes it one of the most popular communications services monitored on our platform. We've sent more than 300 notifications to our users about Cogent DNS incidents, providing transparency and peace of mind. You can get alerts by signing up for a free StatusGator account.
Currently, down notifications are not supported by the Cogent DNS status page. That means all notifications from their page will show in the warn state. If you need better differentiation, please get in touch.
Warn notifications are used when Cogent DNS is undergoing a non-critical issue like minor service issues, performance degradation, non-core bugs, capacity issues, or problems affecting a small number of users.
Cogent DNS does not post separate notifications for planned maintenance work so we are unable to send notifications when maintenance windows begin. If you need Cogent DNS maintenance notifications, please email us.
When Cogent DNS posts issues on their status page, we collect the main headline message and include that brief information or overview in notifications to StatusGator subscribers.
When Cogent DNS has outages or other service-impacting events on their status page, we pull down the detailed informational updates and include them in notifications. These messages often include the current details about how the problem is being mitigated, or when the next update will occur.
Because Cogent DNS has several components, each with their individual statuses, StatusGator can differentiate the status of each component in our notifications to you. This means, you can filter your status page notifications based on the services, regions, or components you utilize. This is an essential feature for complex services with many components or services spread out across many regions.
