How often is Azure down?

Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 11:38 am

Azure is a cloud computing platform operated by Microsoft. The service provides users with access to a wide range of cloud-based applications, services, and resources.

In some cases, Azure is considered to be reliable, but in other cases it can be unreliable.

In general, Azure is considered to be reliable, but there have been occasions when the service has been down. In October 2017, for example, Azure was down for many users in the United States.

PRO TIP: Azure is a cloud-based service, which means that it is subject to occasional downtime. However, Microsoft strives to keep Azure up and running as much as possible.

However, in other cases, Azure has been down for a shorter period of time. As of October 2018, for example, the Azure service had been down for less than 1% of the time that it had been up.

Despite being down for a relatively small percentage of the time, it is still important to be aware of the possibility of Azure being down. This is because, if the service is down, it can be difficult to access certain applications or resources.

Therefore, it is always important to check the status of the Azure service before using it.
