Just me or azure been really unstable lately atleast here in europe?
- bicx 6y agoIt's not just you, and not just in Europe
- semicolon_storm 6y agoMajor worldwide outages for AAD, CosmosDB, and now DNS in just the past few months so it’s definitely not just you. Maybe Microsoft should invest less in their shiny new AI/ML platforms and more into stability of their core services.
- beebob 6y agoI'd like to second this. From where I'm sitting it feels like Microsoft is prioritizing marketing more than engineering. It seems like most larger customers that use Azure do so because management got shiny presentations from Microsoft and now it's their "strategical partner". A lot of overselling with huge discounts gets them their in. Already seen this at multiple companies. Azure is a nice platform for your Windows administrators to shift some load to the cloud. But to build large applications on? Edit: And I kinda feel bad for saying this, since I assume that there are indeed pretty competent engineers working on Azure. But somewhere something isn't right.

- ridethebike 6y agoMove to cloud they said. It will be more reliable they said. But seriously, as inflexible, painful and tedious to support our on-prem infra last time we had critical outage was ~3 years ago, for like an hour. We've almost finished migration to azure. I hope this outage and AD outage earlier this month are outliers.
- aksss 6y agoLast major outage affecting our customers was the ides of March (3/15), but I think there was another affecting Europe just a few days ago, right?
- ZeroCool2u 6y agoNo, it's not just you. Independent aggregated customer data I've seen has put AWS and GCP with a marginal difference in downtime and Azure with an order of magnitude or two more downtime in comparison.
- pram 6y agoNope, we had an Azure outage in Databricks just last month. We’re migrating off though.
