Is Hugging Face down? Live hub status

Open-source ML hub · models · datasets · Spaces

Live Hugging Face Hub, Inference Endpoints and Spaces reachability — checked from your browser against huggingface.co.

Check live Hugging Face uptime and reachability for the Model Hub, Inference Endpoints, Spaces and model repositories. Real-time browser-based checks verify platform reachability, response latency and HTTP status codes directly from your client, revealing downtime, latency spikes or regional connection timeouts.

About Hugging Face

Hugging Face is the default hub for open-source ML models, datasets and demos. It also runs paid Inference Endpoints (dedicated GPUs) and Spaces (hosted Gradio/Streamlit apps).

Common Hugging Face issues

  • 429 on serverless inference

    Serverless is shared capacity. For consistent QPS, move to Inference Endpoints (dedicated).

  • LFS-tracked downloads timing out

    Large weights are served via LFS on Cloudflare R2 — regional CDN incidents cause slow downloads even while the Hub UI works.

Frequently asked

Is Hugging Face down right now?
Verify real-time Hugging Face reachability on deepseek.health, which tests direct browser connectivity to Hugging Face Hub, Inference API endpoints, and Spaces to detect outages and 5xx errors.
What Hugging Face services are monitored?
The monitor checks reachability for huggingface.co Hub, Serverless Inference API endpoints, and Spaces hosting infrastructure to confirm operational status and latency.
Why am I getting 504 Gateway Timeouts on Hugging Face?
Hugging Face 504 timeouts typically occur during cold model starts or under heavy infrastructure load. Retry requests with exponential backoff or consider dedicated Inference Endpoints.
What causes Hugging Face Inference API errors?
Inference API errors typically stem from cold starts on serverless models, rate limiting on free tiers, high traffic load, or temporary upstream GPU provider outages.
Are Hugging Face Spaces monitored separately from the Hub?
Yes, Spaces run containerized applications independently, though authentication and model weights pull from the main Hugging Face Hub infrastructure.
How can I check if Hugging Face is currently down?
Test reachability on deepseek.health/huggingface, which executes direct browser pings against huggingface.co and inference endpoints, verifying service status immediately.
What causes Hugging Face API timeout errors?
Timeouts usually stem from cold starts on serverless Inference Endpoints, high demand spikes across shared hardware, or localized network routing issues to Hugging Face clusters.
Where can I find official Hugging Face status announcements?
Official uptime tracking and incident logs are hosted on status.huggingface.co alongside updates from the official Hugging Face developer community.
Is Hugging Face down?
The checks above probe the Hub API and Spaces edges. Model downloads pull from a CDN that can degrade independently — a slow git-clone from huggingface.co with everything green usually means CDN, not core outage.
Why is my Space cold-starting for 60+ seconds?
Free Spaces sleep after inactivity and cold-start on the next request. Persistent Storage or an Upgraded (paid) hardware tier eliminates cold starts.
