Cloud problems: Microsoft 365 outages continue

The ongoing outage affecting Microsoft continues worldwide, cutting off many businesses and consumers from the company's central cloud offerings. The problem extends beyond the email service Outlook; it impacts various services within the Microsoft 365 package. For instance, the business communication platform Teams experienced difficulties in scheduling meetings and linking calendars, while the AI assistant Copilot, the administration portal for administrators, and interfaces with third-party vendors were also intermittently disrupted.

Microsoft has been documenting the sluggish battle against these failures through announcements on its online platform X and service status page. The struggle initially lacked decisive success. Following the initial reports of issues with Exchange-mailboxes in the United States, the company warned that the disruption could affect connections to Microsoft 365 services globally. Microsoft has not provided any indications of a cyberattack.
