  does anyone appreciate that hypervisors have oversold the **** out of colo's and if Iran actually starts attacking American tech infra we're cooked @aws @gcp @azure

  So disappointing to see @AWSstartups and its lack of support to startups unlike @Azure @AzureSupport who are helpful and accessible.

  Be careful with anything @Microsoft /@Azure related. They used a card that’s linked to my sons XBox to charge a service that I’ve attempted to cancel multiple times. Apparently they’re able to pull card information across platforms? Pretty shady if you ask me.

  @Microsoft @Office @Azure Cancel my SUBSCRIPTION as Microsoft is UNRESPONSIVE! As usual.

  @Azure Every generation request takes so long that the service is unusable. Even 1024x1024 images can take more than 5 minutes to complete.

  i’ve recently went down a rabbit hole to learn how hyperscalers / cloud providers like @awscloud, @Azure (or at least in theory) work a huge respect to all the engineers that built the abstraction behind the resource provisioning. i am still trying to wrap my head around it

  Very disappointed with @Azure support. A subscription was disabled over “suspicious activity” with no clear explanation, causing our beta app to go down and creating serious business risk. Startups cannot operate on vague flags and delayed resolution. #Azure #Microsoft #Startup

  The problem is that Microsoft and Anthropic haven't opened up Claude APIs in Microsoft Foundry yet. It's a gated program, and even if you submit several access requests, they may choose not to respond. #Claude @Azure

  @Azure @ghbdigital @AzureSupport Official account: redirect to support. Support: open a ticket. Problem: still yours.

  @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.

  @NVIDIADC @Azure Infra is scaling fast to bring agents into production, but infrastructure alone doesn’t solve the core problem running agents is one thing, trusting their execution is another.

  My 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.

  @Azure Confidential Computing was built for this exact problem. Your data stays encrypted while it's being processed – locked inside hardware-level trusted environments. The cloud provider can't see it. The host OS can't see it. Nobody can. Overhead: under 8% #MicrosoftAzure

  @Microsoft @Azure i’ve been trying to get a dynamics 365 business central license for six weeks now. None of your “providers” will contact me. Please help me. I don’t understand why it’s so hard for a small business to use your product.

  Dear @Azure , do you think it is acceptable to have a 5+-days lag on PAYG subscription costs, then issue a cost alert for exceeding a threshold all while the cost dashboard does not match up at all with the alert? This is beyond a joke.

  I have never seen an organization more aggressive about NOT providing support than I am experiencing with @Azure right now. Can't log in, can't get support. So angry.

  One of the vendors we use who hook into @Azure @Microsoft365 are reporting that error 503 is being returned and @Microsoft have confirmed that there is a problem

  @AzureSupport @Azure We joined for startup support, but unexpected charges we thought Azure credits covered put us at risk of suspension. We’re unable to pay now and request a review of these charges plus an extension or relief. We value long-term partnership. #Azure #Startups

  @ghbdigital @Azure Ironically my main subscription tenant was disabled for inactivity and 2 days before i paid the pay as u go bill for the same ...funny how the support url takes u to general chat thread and not to any forms... I had to use my official subscription to trigger support

  @AzureSupport @Azure hey i have cancelled my subscription last month, and have no active resources, still I got charged for this month, looking forward for help to fix it.

  The 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.

  @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.

  Had to contact support to transfer my @Azure grant. Support was super responsive! But now it won't let me apply the sponsor credits to my billing profile. Lol I'm trying to build @Copilot support agents for staff at the homeless shelter I work at. Pls fix.

  Start VM on Connect not working from the native Windows App today but has previously. @Azure permissions set properly. Start same desktop as same user via the web client on same machine & the VM starts. No error in Windows App, just stops showing "Connecting" (and never shows Starting).🙁
