Microsoft Azure Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • tomascalvoz Tomas Calvo Gomez (@tomascalvoz) reported

    @QuinnyPig @Azure If you go to a platform, as a customer you are almost forced to go all in. Self inflicted vendor lock-in :-)

  • MiddleTommy Tom Tucker (@MiddleTommy) reported

    Is @Azure #SignalR down?

  • SquashBugler John Grisham (@SquashBugler) reported

    @Dominus_Kelvin @blitz_js @Azure I'm actually not using Sails in this project. There is a place to add environment variables in your service although I'm not sure at what point they are available.

  • Adys Jerome Leclanche (@Adys) reported

    @QuinnyPig @Azure Even the best security teams can't fix insecurity issues.

  • xmorera Xavier Morera (@xmorera) reported

    @microsoft @Azure I get unknown charges from Microsoft and I can't find from what. I have been trying to find a suitable support channel but can't find any. Can you DM me where to send a request to figure out why I keep getting unknown charges?

  • AluatisBV Travis (@AluatisBV) reported

    @DLangille I’m a bit slow this afternoon. Dragging after the @Citrix Cloud outage this morning. Nothing like being in a pandemic using the world’s largest VDI solution and having outages every other week, but they built on top of @Azure so I guess it’s to be expected. Yes, shots fired.

  • SteBobRoughley Stephen Roughley (@SteBobRoughley) reported

    I have to say, @Azure, I'm certain I am not alone in being incredibly put-off seeking help from you now that you simply direct everyone to StackOverflow. Please reopen your forums!

  • phil_denton 🇺🇸 Phil Denton - Pray for America 🇺🇸 (@phil_denton) reported

    @dustinmoris For what it's worth, I haven't used GCP/AWS but I agree with you on @Azure's poor design/function. Their network stack feels like it was designed by someone whose only networking experience comes from their home Internet router.

  • daric_erminote Dr Daric Erminote (@daric_erminote) reported

    @Azure we accepting more complicated standards for quizzing, LinkedIn is not bad, but we need lab test in addition.

  • Lt_P_Mitchell Corey Cook (@Lt_P_Mitchell) reported

    @Azure - unable to log support tickets at present. Have other issues with Azure AD.

  • tommagumma Tom Meadon (@tommagumma) reported

    @Azure you okay there mate? Seems like you're coming down with a case of the 503s. #azure

  • dawesi BigRed (@dawesi) reported

    @MicrosoftAUDev waiting 5 hours from answered ticket to be told 2-5 days to unblock 1 port from a VM on @azure... #wtf?

  • LastTarex Tarex (@LastTarex) reported

    yo @Azure and @AzureSupport fix your damned postal code subscription !!! how can someone trust you with their data if you dont even know the postal code of the area !

  • WilliamNB 🚲 Will 🇬🇧🇿🇦 (@WilliamNB) reported

    FFS @Azure, why's your portal down? How am I meant to manage resources in Azure?

  • 4catsnomore Kai (@4catsnomore) reported

    @WilliamNB @Azure ps. not down for me...

  • dawesi BigRed (@dawesi) reported

    @Microsoft 5 hours to be told 2-5 days to unblock 1 port from a VM on @azure... #wtf?

  • CatalinAdler Catalin Adler (@CatalinAdler) reported

    @QuinnyPig @Azure @awscloud Loving mqsql and can't wait to get back to using that engine. With mysql and pg everything i saved on 'licensing' i pay back 10x fold in engineering cost. And with sql in azure as a service, it's actually no way expensive for my loads.

  • WilliamNB 🚲 Will 🇬🇧🇿🇦 (@WilliamNB) reported

    @4catsnomore @Azure Yeah, I saw the service status :-)

  • SteBobRoughley Stephen Roughley (@SteBobRoughley) reported

    I should also say, @Azure, I'm certain I am not alone in being incredibly put-off seeking help from you now that you simply direct everyone to StackOverflow. Please reopen your forums!

  • JDonavan JDonavan (@JDonavan) reported

    @QuinnyPig @Azure @awscloud I like Microsoft SQL Server. I will never use it again however. I got tired of paying the tax.

  • ralner Ray Alner (@ralner) reported

    Every time I read @Azure documentation/steps to configure I get triggered. Why? It’s like reading my thesis paper over. It’s 20 pages long means nothing and is typically hypothetical. Never ACTUALLY solves a problem or provides meaningful directions #microsoft #developers

  • lawrencemak0 lawrence.mak (@lawrencemak0) reported

    Got a RFP from a customer with the traditional 3 tier architecture on @awscloud . For database they wanted MSSQL. Due to the ***** licensing tactics by @Azure the pricing for MSSQL was about 2 times more than any other better alternate by AWS services.

  • flytzen Frans Lytzen (@flytzen) reported

    Been helping yet another customer set up @Azure Front Door today. It's become a default part of our setup these days.

  • Rock20180804 ‘-x-‘ (@Rock20180804) reported

    We must not select @Azure ACI because this is so unstable service. Should consider alternatives.

  • Antihippy Gav (@Antihippy) reported

    @Azure portal down ... RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF DEPLOYMENT YOU EEJITS

  • uploadtocloud Julian (@uploadtocloud) reported

    @AzureSupport @Azure, seems like there is a bug when exporting Azure Firewall Policies as Template and importing it again. Looks like there is a missing “depends on” in the template as you can’t upgrade the network policy and application policy at the same time.

  • scrambledheads David Joseph (@scrambledheads) reported

    Connecting to an @Azure DB with MFA via SSMS I am constantly prompted for account, if I ignore it I can work but looks like a @redgate issue. Any ideas @PlantBasedSQL

  • godd4rd Goddard (@godd4rd) reported

    @TheRealDuckboy @adamauckland @Azure Wow. I’ve got the same problem! If either of you find a solution can you let me know?

  • rickasaurus Richard Minerich (@rickasaurus) reported

    @QuinnyPig @Azure Damn they’re still doing this crap?

  • dawesi BigRed (@dawesi) reported

    Now 15 hours to get one port open on Azure, told it could be up to 3 more days. WTF is @Azure doing. THe sad thing is that we migrated off @awscloud as they couldn't keep the cloud under a windows server stable enough either. THE CLOUD IS A JOKE, RUN FROM IT. VPS is still king
