Microsoft 365 products and Azure services faced a major outage on Tuesday as businesses were unable to take their Teams call or rely on its digital resources for their operations. The company has faced a challenging July with multiple outages, including the massive CrowdStrike error shut down.
Microsoft 365 Status officially confirmed the issue earlier this week with its post on X that said, “We’re currently investigating access issues and degraded performance with multiple Microsoft 365 services and features. More information can be found under MO842351 in the admin centre.”
Microsoft Azure Outage – Another Security Error?
First it was CrowdStrike that triggered one of the biggest IT debacles in history, and the latest outage brought back the horror from earlier this month. Did Microsoft face yet another update error or related issue? The company has not shared the details for the latest outage that hit Azure and Microsoft 365 services which was severely reported by users on DownDetector platform on Tuesday.
The company shared the outage alert citing issues with network infrastructure on its bulletin which suggests something internally caused the problem and the services were expected to be back up soon. At the time of writing, Azure status alert was clear which means most of the Microsoft services are running and back to full health.
Microsoft is still working out the issues faced by over 8 billion Windows users on July 19 when the error-ridden CrowdStrike update took all the systems down. Major sectors like airlines, healthcare and businesses were massive impacted, some even joking about getting an early weekend gift. Microsoft has blamed the CrowdStrike outage on the EU for its stringent rules that permits third-party vendors to get kernel access to Windows OS without informing Microsoft about doing so.
