View details of the current PBS status below. If the status shows "Up" but you're still experiencing issues, you can report a problem such as connectivity issues, outages, or slow performance. These issues are commonly reported when PBS is down or facing partial disruptions.
PBS (Streaming platform for PBS dramas, news, documentaries, and more) is a a Streaming solution that StatusGator has been monitoring since March 2021. Over the past almost 5 years, we have collected data on on more than 582 outages that affected PBS users. When PBS publishes downtime on their status page, they do so across 78 components and 3 groups using 4 different statuses: up, warn, down, and maintenance which we use to provide granular uptime metrics and notifications.
If you're wondering, "Is PBS down?", or need to know its current status, we've got you covered. Our platform tracks every reported outage, performance issue, and maintenance window to ensure you're informed. Whether PBS is experiencing a problem now or has recently resolved one, our detailed history keeps you updated.
More than 100 StatusGator users monitor PBS to get notified when it's down, is under maintenance, or has an outage. This makes it one of the most popular Streaming services monitored on our platform. We've sent more than 700 notifications to our users about PBS incidents, providing transparency and peace of mind.
If we detect a potential PBS outage or other issue before it was reported on the official status page we will send an Early Warning Signal notification to StatusGator subscribers. We can often detect issues before they are officially acknowledged by the provider, giving you a head start on resolving any potential problems.
If PBS is having system outages or experiencing other critical issues, red down notifications appear on the status page. In most cases, it means that core functions are not working properly, or there is some other serious customer-impacting event underway.
Warn notifications are used when PBS 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.
PBS posts separate notifications for planned maintenance work. StatusGator will notify subscribers when PBS enters a pre-planned maintenance window, keeping you up to date.
When PBS 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 PBS 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 PBS has several components, each with their individual statuses, StatusGator can differentiate the status of each component in our notifications to you whenever a particular component is down. 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.
