About turbopuffer

AIWatch Data: turbopuffer's reported uptime is 99.68%. Based on AIWatch data from the last 30 days, it experienced 1 incident with an average recovery time of 7h 27m.

turbopuffer is a serverless vector-search database built directly on object storage. It powers retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), semantic search, and AI agent memory, and is used as the retrieval backend for products like Cursor's codebase index.

AIWatch Insight: turbopuffer is region-specific — its status page lists each region (aws-us-east-1, gcp-us-central1, etc.) as its own component alongside an overall status, so an outage can affect one region without breaking the platform.

When turbopuffer is down, applications relying on vector search for RAG, semantic search, or recommendations will fail. AI agents and code tools that depend on long-term memory or knowledge retrieval will lose context until service recovers.

This page provides real-time status and recent incident details; uptime history is shown only when the official source publishes sufficient comparable records — updated every 5 minutes by AIWatch.
