Microsoft Azure Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • emilymbender @emilymbender@dair-community.social on Mastodon (@emilymbender) reported

    @tdietterich @Azure Demand = pointless ChatGPT queries. Powered down = that electricity can go somewhere else on the grid.

  • mkheck Mark⚡️Heckler, 馬克 哈格樂, مارک هکلر🇺🇸🇺🇦 (@mkheck) reported

    @kumar_pallav @therealdanvega @Azure That said, if you've omitted the flag, I believe the default for --runtime-version IS Java 11...so that could cause issues.

  • microspecs chuks (@microspecs) reported

    @Truthfully83 Your points are valid. But with the availability of Microsoft @Azure cloud protection services especially endpoint VPN tunneling, INEC should be in safe hands. It's only the Insider attack that can cause those changes/deletion you mentioned. Network security has advanced.

  • slimsag Stephen Gutekanst⚡ (@slimsag) reported

    @Azure @AzureSupport The company I work for @sourcegraph has been trying to get a billed Azure account set up for a week now, but can't get in contact with an actual sales person (support has not responded in 4 days), can you help?

  • JulieeB11 Jb (@JulieeB11) reported

    F*ck you @Azure and f*ck you @Windows ! Your f*cking #microsoftauthenticator is **** and doesn’t work!!!

  • rexcze Jakub Bittner (@rexcze) reported

    I am recreating a school project (Forensic lab) in @Azure and compared to @awscloud, it is easier to use without any prior knowledge which is a plus. However, sometimes it has to be restarted (refreshed browser page) to make things work. I do not have problems like that with AWS

  • kumar_pallav Kumar Pallav 🇮🇳 (@kumar_pallav) reported

    @mkheck @therealdanvega @Azure Even logs showed the server is up and I believe it was coz I got 404 tomcat error. Yet tomcat to spring endpoints it never happened, I felt it could not redirect to dispatcher servlet .

  • dpego diego (@dpego) reported

    Why is it so hard to create a simple, fixed cost VM on @Azure ? My test VM tripled the price just by using it as a ssh proxy. I have Google VM doing the same steadily fir more than two years. Any help would be appreciated.

  • mim_djo Mim (@mim_djo) reported

    @dotyousra @Azure hihihi, it is a know issue :) fixing it is not trivial

  • tdietterich Thomas G. Dietterich (@tdietterich) reported

    @emilymbender @Azure I don't agree. Cloud resources are powered down if there is no demand.

  • Sanjay57119195 Sanjay (@Sanjay57119195) reported

    @Azure @AzureSupport my support req I'd SR2212090050001007

  • MultiMindsRome MultiMindsProduction (@MultiMindsRome) reported

    @PearsonVUE I had the most terrible experience. Completely robbed of all decency from your Procter. The customer has no say in anything here. Terrible sad situation. @awscloud @Azure please remove them as your choose partner for proctoring exams.

  • YourGamesBeOver Steven (@YourGamesBeOver) reported

    Speaking of, @Azure a mention of the data limits of app service plans when you pick the tier would be greatly appreciated. I had no idea the app even had a data limit! And I still don’t know what it was.

  • OfficiaIGamer JobF1 (@OfficiaIGamer) reported

    @AzureSupport @Azure How long does it take for a Student Customer Support Ticket to be responded to? I'm really in need of an answer :/

  • tdietterich Thomas G. Dietterich (@tdietterich) reported

    @emilymbender @Azure If machines are powered down, then total demand has dropped. This REQUIRES some generation to decrease or some additional storage to increase (pumped water storage; batteries).

  • mkheck Mark⚡️Heckler, 馬克 哈格樂, مارک هکلر🇺🇸🇺🇦 (@mkheck) reported

    @kumar_pallav @therealdanvega @Azure Please try to az spring app delete -n <app-name> -g <resource-group-name> -s <spring-app-service-name> 1/n

  • child_drowning drowning child (@child_drowning) reported

    @emilymbender @tdietterich @Azure By the same reasoning, there's no harm in buying fossil-fuel energy and wasting it, since the fossil fuels would have been used for something else otherwise. In actuality, if Azure shut down, demand for renewable energy would decrease, causing market to produce less renewables.

  • niall_east Niall East (@niall_east) reported

    @ValueHao @Microsoft @Azure I don't give a **** about Microsoft. Wahl was 48 and suffering from acute bronchitis. American savages have *****, tortured and killed millions of civilians in the Middle East. Show some ******* humility

  • ameerahmed Ameer Ahmed (@ameerahmed) reported

    @bh4b3sh @Azure Maybe the azure audit logs could help here

  • DevMachinist Matthew Teague (@DevMachinist) reported

    Just so you know @Azure @Google @AWS If you take my app down I already built the pipeline to run onprem. I did that before I set any reliance on cloud systems. You won't stop me... I saw what you did to parler.

  • jimmywim Jim Love 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 @jimmywim@mastodon.social (@jimmywim) reported

    Huge flaw in how Microsoft @Azure implements MFA - the MFA details (the registered phone, etc) is stored in the *guest* tenant, not the home tenant. Result? I'm permanently connected to an old tenant, registered with MFA on an old phone, and the customer is unreachable.

  • AbssyMark Mark Abssy (@AbssyMark) reported

    @Fintech_Brennan @RobinWigg @Azure New tech always puts downward pressure on prices. What keeps prices high in this part of the industry is data costs, not quality of service or even demand. Plenty of indexes out there missing certain venues because price data is too expensive.

  • yevgenydevine Yevgeny (@yevgenydevine) reported

    @OpenAI @Azure Choosing the 100% paid trajectory will significantly slow down or even freeze the training potential of the GPT model, the discovery of its use cases, and the growth of third-party services built on top of GPT Chat and @OpenAI's other products. This is critical why exactly ↓

  • mkheck Mark⚡️Heckler, 馬克 哈格樂, مارک هکلر🇺🇸🇺🇦 (@mkheck) reported

    @kumar_pallav @therealdanvega @Azure Then deploy the jar anew: az spring app deploy -n <app-name> -g <resource-group-name> -s <spring-app-service-name> --artifact-path <app-jar-file.jar> --jvm-options='-Xms2048m -Xmx2048m' Or similar. :) That works reliably for me. Please let me know!

  • jimmywim Jim Love 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 @jimmywim@mastodon.social (@jimmywim) reported

    @ryanyates1990 @Azure Yep, think so. That's my last resort, trying another contact at the customer site to see.

  • tdietterich Thomas G. Dietterich (@tdietterich) reported

    @boazbaraktcs @emilymbender @Azure In the medium term, I'm optimistic the carbon cost of ML will go to zero through a combination of carbon-free energy production, better computer architecture, and better algorithms. Many people are working on this. Carbon is the least of the problems of LLMs.

  • boazbaraktcs Boaz Barak (@boazbaraktcs) reported

    @tdietterich @emilymbender @Azure Same here ... must admit that I never tried to calculate if it means that I am pointlessly emitting more carbon.

  • ryanyates1990 Ryan (not yet a Dr) | ❤️ conquers over hate (@ryanyates1990) reported

    @jimmywim @Azure I believe with a support request you should be able to get this resolved, it's at least worth a try

  • michielhamers Michiel Hamers (Hammertime) 🔜 #azdevcom (@michielhamers) reported from Hannover, Landeshauptstadt, Lower Saxony

    @lovelacecoding too bad. #AZDEVCOM will be great. This week only 2 regular days. And next week only 1 work day: Internal training from the studio for the whole company: @Azure #Fundamentals. Glad that we focus on #knowledgesharing When is your next non-ordinary work week?

  • child_drowning drowning child (@child_drowning) reported

    @emilymbender @tdietterich @Azure By the same reasoning, there'd be no value in Azure shutting down if they used fossil fuels, because someone else would burn them otherwise. In actuality, if Azure shut down, demand for renewable energy would decrease, causing market to produce less renewables.
