Microsoft declared on Saturday that its Outlook, Teams, and other services had completely recovered, concluding a global outage that disrupted online communications for businesses and governments for more than a day. The company announced on X that it had finished addressing the root cause of the incident and restored service to the remaining affected customers and regions.
Microsoft attributed the issue to server problems, stating that the outage did not involve any malicious activity. Outlook and Teams, two of the most widely used workplace applications, host hundreds of millions of users, and the outage compromised essential functions such as email, calendar management, and virtual meetings. The disruption impacted government agencies from Australia and Japan to the United States, caused delays at trading firms, hindered earnings announcements, and prompted airlines to warn customers about communication delays.
