This quarter, we added more integrations to StatusHub, launched new platform features, and continued improving our Status API. Here’s what’s new for Q2 2026.

A year ago, at WWDC 2025, Apple open-sourced container — a Swift-based CLI for running Linux containers on macOS, built on the Containerization framework and Apple's Virtualization.framework. The Apple container model is genuinely different from Docker Desktop's single shared Linux VM: every container gets its own lightweight VM. It matured out of preview and shipped its first stable 1.0.0 release on June 9, 2026.

Understanding a service outage is easier when you can see what it’s connected to. That’s why we’re introducing Relationships for Service Monitors, one of the most requested features from StatusGator’s hundreds of enterprise IT teams. You can now explore related services directly from the Service Details page by opening the Relationships dropdown.

June 2026 saw major outages across ecommerce, AI, developer tools, and business applications. StatusGator’s Early Warning Signals surfaced many of these incidents before providers updated their official status pages. Of the 1,067 incidents detected by StatusGator in June, only 191 (17.9%) were eventually acknowledged by providers.

Let’s take a look at everything we launched in June. From new Chrome and Firefox browser extensions and API enhancements to powerful new integrations and our latest Early Warning Signals report, here’s what’s new in StatusGator.

We’re excited to announce the new StatusGator Confluence integration. When issues happen, teams need information fast. With the StatusGator Confluence integration, you can embed real-time service status directly into Confluence, making operational updates accessible alongside your team’s documentation and knowledge base.

On June 24, 2026, Shopify experienced a widespread service disruption that affected storefronts, admin dashboards, and merchant access across multiple regions. While the outage did not impact every user, reports quickly surfaced from merchants around the world who were unable to access stores, log in to administrative tools, or complete routine operations.

Monitor metrics are now available through the StatusGator v3 API for both Website Monitors and Ping Monitors. These endpoints provide the same latency and performance data available in the Monitor Metrics tab, making it accessible through the API and MCP server. You can find the endpoints in the API documentation.

Uptime reports are now available through the StatusGator v3 API. This new endpoint provides the same uptime report data available in the StatusGator UI, making it easy to access uptime statistics programmatically through the API and MCP server. You can find the endpoint in the API documentation.
