Online Operations Fully Operational in Pennsylvania Following a Microsoft Service Outage

The outage impacted major apps and services, including Microsoft 365 and Xbox, with resolution expected by 7:20 p.m. after Azure Front Door service issues were fixed.

  • On Wednesday, Microsoft experienced an Azure outage disrupting Microsoft 365, Xbox and customer apps including Starbucks, Costco and Minecraft, leaving some sites inaccessible globally.
  • Investigators pointed to Azure Front Door as Azure's support account said it was investigating issues causing intermittent request failures, while the Azure status page and Microsoft 365 status account warned of service access problems under MO1181369.
  • Reports show the outage began shortly after Wednesday's incident, with Microsoft saying it expects full restoration by 7:20 p.m. ET, and Downdetector indicates issues started around that time.
  • Businesses using Azure reported widespread issues, with Microsoft Azure's outage disrupting services globally, including online check-in for some customers, shortly before Microsoft's scheduled earnings release.
  • The outage follows an earlier AWS outage just over a week earlier and Microsoft's March outage that left tens of thousands unable to access Outlook email accounts.
