This outage talks about what appears to be a VM control plane failure (it mentions stop not working) across multiple regions.
AWS has never had this type of outage in 20 years. Yet Azure constantly had them.
This is a total failure of engineering and has nothing to do with capacity. Azure is a joke of a cloud.
- mirashii 8mo agoAWS had an outage that blocked all EC2 operations just a few months ago: https://aws.amazon.com/message/101925/ https://aws.amazon.com/message/101925/
- everfrustrated 8mo agoThis was the largest AWS outage in a long long time and was still constrained to a single AWS region. Which is my point. The same fault on Azure would be a global (all-regions) fault.
- jamesfinlayson 8mo agoYeah I remember one maybe four years ago? Existing workloads were fine but I had to go and tell my marketing department to not do anything until it was sorted because auto-scaling was busted.
- ragall 8mo agoI do agree that Azure seems to be a lot worse: its control plane(s) seems to be much more centralized than the other two.
