Any info on Sql Azure being down a whole day? We didn't see anything. This issue on the other hand, a real bummer.

From what I saw, started as routine maintenance, and we began seeing SQL timeouts and errors on SQL East, and then all our DB servers on SQL East just vanished. Stayed gone for 5 hours at least. I took a screenshot of the status console once it got updated with the outage info (several hours into the outage): https://mobile.twitter.com/iTrendTV/status/303959900164341760/photo/1 https://mobile.twitter.com/iTrendTV/status/30395990016434176... Pretty unhappy about the whole experience. Luckily, we have our own colo in addition to Azure. If you want to see people's reactions as this event unraveled: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/ssdsgetstarted/thread/231c1231-c634-448d-966f-40980c32460d http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/ssdsgetstarted...

  Ouch, we saw a similar thing in the South when things went sideways late last year. We've taken a similar approach to Sql Azure, use DataSync to replicate to offsite warm instances.

Yeah I didn't see anything wrong with my services 2 days ago, which rely heavily on Sql Azure. Right now everything is down.

  And we are seeng sporadic SQL connection errors today (between Azure VMs to Azure SQL), so whatever the issue was - doesn't appear to be fully resolved.

  Everything is down for you? All our systems that only need the WebRole and SQL Azure are doing just fine for us.

    Some individual services are up. But my system as a whole is down with Compute failing to start and Storage/Service Bus completely down.

      Ah ok. Yeah, I'm unable to deploy anything new obviously since that goes to the Blob storage. That's actually how I first saw this issue. Apparently things that were already running are doing ok, but you can't publish anything new.
