Microsoft didn't immediately respond to a request for comment, but the company acknowledged issues with its Azure Front Door, a global content and application delivery network, service on its status page and social media accounts. Because so many sites and services use Microsoft's cloud service, an outage like this one can have widespread impact.On Downdetector, a website that tracks online outages, users reported issues throughout the day with Office 365, Minecraft, XBox Live, Copilot, Costco, Starbucks, and many other services. Alaska Airline wrote on its X account that the outage is at the heart of problems affecting their systems, including check-in services. Microsoft's Azure troubles came just hours before the company was set to release its quarterly earnings report, and just over a week after a massive outage of Amazon's cloud computing service took down a broad range of online services, including social media, gaming, food delivery, streaming and financial platforms. Amazon is the dominant provider of cloud computing services but Microsoft ranks second, ahead of Google, in most markets.
