I work for a random unnamed corp, presently impacted by a massive microsoft Azure outage. This is a very rare event. MS Azure is a massive cloud platform, and very rarely goes down. It has been down for around 4 hours now. This makes it a notable event. I don't pretend to know why or what but this is definitely a notable outage.

AAD got all fuckered two weeks ago. Couldn't authenticate for a couple of hours to retrieve anything from blob or do anything for that matter. Only some accounts tho, but Azure seems like garbage to me. Been working with it for about a month and already two huge issues. Microsoft = shit....worked with AWS for a few years with no problems(and no I am not promoting anything to do with Amazon, fuck that company, just simply making the comparison.)
This has been getting steadily worse. I do azure stack releases almost daily, and the pipelines for the past 3 months have had a warning on their stability.
The AD one the other week id say was probably human error. This? This might be more backdoor-y
What’s odd is that the outage is related to azure DNS. Which has a SLA of 100% uptime.

Is this happening again today? My very large utility industry workplace was affected by it yesterday and applied an emergency patch last night. It was a major emergency.
Yes. Started this afternoon right as we began a major code deployment. Major hassle.
Ooof. I feel your pain. Godspeed
They owe me at least 4 scotches at this point

I've only been using it for a year but frankly it seems to be malfunctioning rather frequently.
Interdasting even.....
Its going to probably get much worse, and soon. Ive been waiting for an msft event to fuck the globe hard, if there was ever a time for those to happen, it would be in the coming weeks.
Yup. Our corporate website and MS Teams went down today.
That means at least 2 regions are down at the same time right? That’s definitely massive, because if I recall the regions are at least 300 miles apart.
Yep. It crossed regions. Just came back up in last few mins
Probably dumping some cloud files for some of the "less reputable" corps and people [they] don't want found.
