Tell HN: Azure outage

Azure is down for us, we can't even access the azure portal. Are other experiencing this? Our services are located in Canada/Central and US-East 2

An important quality of the cloud is that it is always available.

Except that it is not!

Interesting times...

Hello fellow boomers!

I noticed that winget is also down eg.

  winget upgrade fabric
  Failed in attempting to update the source: winget
  An unexpected error occurred while executing the command:
  InternetOpenUrl() failed.

As of now Azure Status page still shows no incident. It must be manually updated, someone has to actively decide to acknowledge an issue, and they're just... not. It undermines confidence in that status page.

I have never noticed that page being updated in a timely manner.

It shows that some people have issues accessing the portal.

It's DNS

It’s not DNS

There is no way it’s DNS

It was DNS

From Azure status page: "Customers can consider implementing failover strategies with Azure Traffic Manager, to fail over from Azure Front Door to your origins".

What a terrible advise.

So that's why all of our municipality's digital services are down ... utter chaos at the political meeting I attended just now.
