About Python
python.org is the official website of Python, general-purpose programming language. The company was founded in 1991. The domain was registered 31 years ago through Gandi SAS. The Internet Archive first captured it in 1997. It ranks #747 among the most visited sites in the world on the Tranco list. It is hosted in United States on the Fastly, Inc. network. The service publishes its own status page at status.python.org, which we read alongside our checks.
We have recorded no outage for Python in the last 90 days; it answered 100% of our checks.

Common questions
Is Python down for everyone or just me?
Compare the test from your browser above with our server checks. If our servers reach python.org and your browser cannot, the problem is on your connection, DNS or network. If both fail, the site is down.
How do you know if Python is down?
We request the homepage from 8 locations, check DNS, the TLS certificate and the HTTP response, and compare the page content with what we saw before. We also read the service's official status feed where one exists and count visitor reports against the usual rate for the hour.
What can I do while it is down?
Subscribe to the alert on this page and we will email you when it recovers. Clearing your DNS cache or switching networks only helps when our servers can reach the site and your browser cannot.
