Connection not possible – There is a worldwide malfunction with Microsoft 365 services. According to the company, Outlook and Teams services are affected. How many users are affected, the company still leaves it open.
Users of Microsoft 365 services around the world have to deal with outages overnight. A recent change has likely caused a major outage, also affecting the Outlook email program and Microsoft Teams collaboration service, as well as the Azure cloud platform, the company said.
Even after reversing the change, the Windows and Office software developers could not have observed an “increase in successful connections.” The problem will persist, he said. The cause is said to be a malfunction of cloud services, which is why, among other things, the online versions of Office programs were not accessible.
“We are looking at measures to limit the damage. In parallel, we are redirecting data traffic to alternative systems to further relieve affected users,” Microsoft said. The group did not announce how many users are affected by the outage worldwide.
It wasn’t until Friday night that Google’s cloud services were temporarily interrupted. Users complained online about problems with the Google Cloud storage service, the Google Photos photo platform, and the Google Meet video chat offering. The group announced that the cause was the failure of a group of servers.
