Microsoft Azure cloud service suffers outage
Microsoft's chief executive said his company would look at more opportunities to build its own devices, potentially bringing the software giant into competition with its hardware partners.
Microsoft said it resolved an outage on its Azure cloud computing service, which occurred across multiple regions. Partial disruptions began as of 1.40pm ET on August 18, the company said on the Azure website.
Azure is a cloud-based platform for creating, deploying and maintaining online applications and services such as websites and web-hosted applications. The service, which is used by governments and corporations around the world, supports various programming languages, tools and frameworks.
The company said Azure services such as virtual machines, cloud services, mobile services, service bus, site recovery, HDInsight, websites and Storsimple were down due to interruptions in multiple centres.
The core platform components were working properly throughout and only a small subset of customers were affected by the outage, Microsoft said
