Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Brad Gessler (@bradgessler) reported@Microsoft @Azure The only thing worse is when you get stuck into their ticketing system, also known as hell. I once was running a project where nothing got fixed because the people working on our case kept leaving to go to other companies and they never replied. Absolutely insanity.
-
FreedomForAll (@Ima_Not_You) reported@DrNTXNews @Azure WTF are you doing?!!
-
Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported@AdamGell @Azure I should think so - I don't use CMtrace sorry but anything that makes getting information about a problematic environment is important. I wrote a script for AppSense support to gather as much relevant information as we could in one go to stop toing and froing with customers just to get basic info
-
Vansh (@vanshbuilds) reported@AzureSupport @Azure Can someone from the Azure team please help? My production subscription was disabled and the app has been down for hours, affecting real users. Case 2606020030002066 was reviewed but remains closed. Requesting urgent escalation and manual re-review. I can provide any verification or documents needed immediately.

Emanuele (@i619619) reportedWorkaround to fix the error "X-OpenAI-Internal-Codex-Responses-Lite only supports function tools" in @OpenAIDevs CODEX CLI (Windows) using the GPT 5.6 series in @Azure ->
-
ChrisK (@cjk365) reported@guyrleech @Azure At some point someone on the Windows App team will reach the same conclusion and fix the slowness and reliability issues. And hopefully rename the App to something more useful. Copilot has problems strongly binding to such a generic name.

Luca Steeb (@steebchen) reportedjust paid $100 for the @Azure support plan just to have an underpaid offshore person tell me that there is no other way of filling a manual form for EVERY goddamn model to lift limits for a new account
-
逢坂隆也 Zac (@zach_coredump) reported@MSCloud @Microsoft When could you guys fix this issue? Anyone with email only is able to request login process.
-
Decent Cloud (@DecentCloud_org) reported@ghbdigital @Azure Support flows are designed to filter urgency out. The severity selector protects their SLA metrics, not your uptime.

SeenThroughaLens (@LensSeen) reportedSeems like nobody at @Azure or @MicrosoftHelps care about customer service...

EVB Technology (@EVBTechnology) reportedAI experiments are one thing. Running them at scale is another. Check out how Wrtn uses @Azure OpenAI Service and the new o1 model:

whoajack (@whoajack) reportedWho knew Azure was so expensive :P VM, cheap (like less than $20/month). Bastion host to connect to it, not cheap. LIke $150/month. Time to switch to AWS. WTF :P @Azure
-
Renzo Canepa (@rcanepag) reported@Azure Every generation request takes so long that the service is unusable. Even 1024x1024 images can take more than 5 minutes to complete.
-
Mouhab Tarek (@MouhabTarek) reportedFirst attempt: 2014. Graduation project. An @Xbox @kinect + @Azure remote rehab system — inspired by patients in Cairo who couldn’t reach physio clinics through the traffic. Microsoft noticed. Then my career took over. But the I never let go the idea.
-
ちゅうこ / 合瀬 奏 (@y_chu5) reported@Azure Hi, the repositories azure/azure-functions-docker and azure-functions-durable-js and more... have been disabled on GitHub for violating the terms of service. Was there a problem? I was just forking it, so I was surprised to receive an email from GitHub.
-
Neon Cosmo (@VowOfJudgment) reported@Azure The latest official Edge build can't synchronize Profiles with old MS Accounts like @live.com.ar We've had these accounts for around 20 years, and spent a lot of money on MS Store purchases. If #Microsoft does not fix this it's plain theft.
-
ScholarHat (@ScholarHatX) reported@Azure Great initiative for businesses that want practical AI adoption without unnecessary complexity. Clear guidance and real world implementation steps can help more companies confidently start their AI journey with Azure.

Anne Durgueil (@AnneDurgueil) reported@MSCloud assuming you guys handle Windows365 which is cloud based (and whose principles I love), you may consider using what we called a "transaction processor" although frankly it is very hard these days to find a description that fits what I knew of them when I started coding on IBM mainframes in my teens in the 70s. I'm only saying that because the executables' images these days are so huge and full of useless code you'll fast have huge memory management issues, the same we used to have on our mainframes back in time as we squeezed our code in a few kilobytes. The word transaction processor comes from the fact we mostly coded for banks and insurance companies, where one performed transactions before computing turned up, so it doesn't tell you why it's so great, nor how it works: Despite the fact we had thousands of online users for one tiny computer, there was only one executable image contiguously loaded in memory (maybe two). Each user had a session but all that was kept for each session in resident memory was only the data it used, and the adress (the position) of the next instruction to execute in the executable image for that session. And the beauty of that in a multithreading environment, is that it happens automatically without overbearing thread management. To be honest we coders never had to bother about it all, and Cobol as a programing language was well geared to such a use: working storage was defined before the executable code using those data definitions was lined up, unlike Basic for instance where you could define fields as you went, but where professionals defined them up with comments at the top of the program. (I suppose this can be reshuffled at compilation stage.. yes sorry you need to compile). I Guess object orientation that came a little bit later will fit very well in that framework. We used IMS and CICS on IBM, and ACMS on DEC VAX/VMS.

Technophile (@Technop54777070) reportedA few months ago I attempted to create a RAG index using aisearch in @Azure that pulled it’s knowledge from PDFs in sharepoint libraries. It was a miserable experience tweaking a Logix app flow to ocr, merge, split and chunk the PDFs that i eventually gave up. I attempted it again yesterday because I saw they now allow me to do all of the above by just building out some JSON configs and a skill set. It was easier, ran faster, and didn’t run into the same errors/limitations that I ran into in Logix apps. Kudos to @Microsoft

oesnada (@oesnadaki) reportedThe European Commission is moving to designate @awscloud and @Azure as gatekeepers under the Digital Markets Act, a shift that signals the end of the unregulated era for cloud infrastructure. By forcing these platforms to adopt strict interoperability and data portability standards, the EU aims to dismantle the technical and contractual lock-in that has long defined the enterprise cloud market. This regulatory expansion means $AMZN and Microsoft will likely be forced to overhaul how they bundle services and manage customer transitions to competitors. The upcoming preliminary finding marks a significant escalation in antitrust pressure on $MSFT and the broader cloud sector.

BagerX (@Bagerix) reportedUnacceptable for an "enterprise" cloud. @awscloud & @Azure give grace periods to prevent disasters. GCP shutting down a live business over a minor payment delay is UNSAFE. We lost actual customers today. Moving our infrastructure immediately. Fix this @AskGoogleCloud! (2/2)
-
Fit Solutions Corp (@FitSolutionCorp) reportedconcerning that a critical production issue impacting our clients has been open with Microsoft Power Pages support for over 2 weeks without meaningful response or escalation. We are heavily invested in the Microsoft ecosystem and need accountability and timely support @MSCloud
-
Keith Tsang (@kidtsang) reported@peterpreketes @Azure Speed isn’t just about tools; it’s about the strategy behind them. Most deployments fail not because of lack of tech but due to poor planning and unclear objectives. Bicep can’t fix that.

Chris ✈️🇧🇷🇵🇹🇺🇸🌍 (@crismsantos) reported@guyrleech @Azure That's why I have different brose profiles for each service I need to use frequently (avoids 100% this issue if used correctly) For accounts not used do frequently I do access using the incognito mode

Fabien Snauwaert 🇫🇷🇺🇸 🇪🇸🇭🇺🇷🇺 (@fabiensnauwaert) reportedMy experience with @Azure: - Pay USD 123.58/mo for Postgres - Server gets stuck on restart. Cannot access it. Gotta contact support. - Pay $29 to contact support. But that's business hours only, and it's 2 AM. - Pay $100/mo to reach 24/7 support. - SLA is 1h. Get a response 2h later. - Request a refund. Get ignored for 13 days. - Escalate the ticket. - Receive 5 full-page apology emails, all expecting a response. - Server still not stable. - Upgrade to USD 218.48/mo. This is the kind of nonsense @levelsio warns about. Meanwhile, Hetzner would cost ~€40/mo.

Decent Cloud (@DecentCloud_org) reported@Rahulsr01 @ghbdigital @Azure Payment processed. Access denied. Support deflects. Three separate systems, zero coordination.
