Ask HN: Microsoft/Azure Outage?
I noticed that https://status.cloud.microsoft/ is very slow to load, and it shows a "Service Degradation" for "Microsoft 365 (Business or Enterprise)" with details that users may be unable to connect to their mailboxes in Exchange Online through multiple connection methods. The status page says they've identified connectivity errors on a portion of Exchange Online infrastructure and are investigating. Given that Teams, OneDrive, etc. are essentially SharePoint and Exchange in a trenchcoat, I suspect this is creating a mess for services beyond Exchange Online too. Edit: Looks like the status page needs a status page.
User impact: Users may be unable to connect to their mailboxes in Exchange Online through multiple connection methods. More info: Potentially impacted connection methods may include: - Outlook on the web - Messaging API (MAPI) - Exchange ActiveSync (EAS) - Representational State Transfer (REST) API Current status: We’ve identified connectivity errors occurring on a portion of Exchange Online infrastructure which receives and processes users’ access requests. We’ve collected networking logs to review to further investigate the source of these errors and confirm our next steps. Scope of impact: This issue may affect users attempting to access their mailbox in Exchange Online using the affected connection methods. Next update by: Thursday, November 12, 2026, at 8:00 PM UTC
Aside: What with the nature of the Teams, OneDrive, etc, products being Sharepoint and Exchange in a trenchcoat this is probably creating quite a mess for services besides Exchange Online, too.
