I’ve reached out to Microsoft for comment and context on the issue. I’ll update this post when I hear back. Update: A Microsoft spokesperson provided TechCrunch with the following statement: “We are aware of an interruption with Azure services, including Virtual Machines, Cloud Services, Web sites, and Automation, and are working with our engineering team to resolve the issue as quickly as possible.”
Using the company’s time stamp, Azure’s issues have been live for just under two hours.
