Nimbustat Data Connector

The BigPanda Unified Data Connector (UDC) syncs real-time outage status and user report data from Nimbustat. Nimbustat uses cloud provider incident and status data from RSS/Atom public feeds for 10 major cloud providers.

Nimbustat Data Connector is available for these providers:

The Nimbustat data connector supports only incremental syncs, using per-feed cursors. Feed retention varies significantly by provider (AWS/Azure/GCP only retain active incidents; OCI retains 2+ years of history).

Authentication

The Nimbustat Data Connector does not require any authentication, as all feeds are public.
