How to fix Alibaba Cloud not working
Alibaba Cloud is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Your browser tries to reach alibabacloud.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Check the Alibaba Cloud status page
Open the official status page first, because a fault in one zone or product can hit only your region while everything else runs. If it shows trouble, wait for the fix or move the workload to another region.
Confirm the console region and account
Sign out and sign back in, then check the region selector at the top of the console, since a bucket or instance in another region will look missing even when the service is healthy. Switch to the region that holds your resources. A RAM user without the right policy hits the same wall, so sign in as that user rather than the root account.
Fix signature and clock errors
An invalid signature or time skew message usually means your machine clock is off or the AccessKey is wrong. Sync the clock first. On Windows, open Settings > Time & Language > Date & time and turn on Set time automatically, and on macOS open System Settings > General > Date & Time; then confirm the AccessKey ID and secret on the AccessKey Management page match your profile, and that any STS token has not expired.
Test another network and clear the browser
If the console will not load at all, rule out your own connection. Turn off the VPN or proxy and clear the browser cache and cookies, because a local DNS resolver that blocks or misroutes the console domains causes the same blank page or timeout. Check the profile and region your CLI uses before you blame the service.
While Alibaba Cloud is down: what to use instead
- Amazon Web Services Use it for virtual machines, storage, databases, and other cloud workloads while Alibaba Cloud is unavailable.
- Microsoft Azure Choose it when your application depends on Microsoft services or needs a separate cloud host.
- Google Cloud Use it to run websites, APIs, data tools, and other hosted applications during an outage.
- DigitalOcean Pick it for a simpler virtual server when you need to bring a small website or API back online quickly.

What happens when Alibaba Cloud goes down
Alibaba Cloud is a public cloud platform for compute, storage, databases, and networking. Companies in Asia and elsewhere run production apps on it, so an outage interrupts the console, API, hosted sites, and data jobs that depend on the service, which shows up as failed deployments, stalled workloads, broken automations, and unreachable pages.
Console and API timeouts hit first. You cannot start or resize an ECS instance, and deployment scripts that rely on the API may hang. When a region is affected, ECS instances and RDS databases lose connectivity; OSS uploads and CDN traffic fail too, even if the backend still runs. Regional outages are common, while global control plane problems are rare; a single failed service can leave your app up while backups and deployment pipelines break.

How we track Alibaba Cloud
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Alibaba Cloud, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Alibaba Cloud, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from Alibaba Cloud's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
