How is this “another” Microsoft outage? I assume the first outage the article is referring to was the crowdstrike issue (not a Microsoft caused issue).
Or perhaps I’m not aware of a different non-crowdstrike Microsoft outage recently?
Yesterday portal.azure.com wasn't reachable for a time, at least from the EU.
There was an outage just before crowdstrike, google MO821132
Ouch , ok was not aware of this one. Thanks
Crowdstrike caused a Microsoft outage. Most people don't differentiate.
Crowdstrike caused a Crowdstrike outage for systems running Crowdstrike. The vast majority of Microsoft products and services were not affected.
Except for a large part of Azure :)
The failures in the Central US region in Azure were entirely unrelated to Crowdstrike. It was the day before the Crowdstrike update rolled out.
At the same time there was a Microsoft Azure outage, but it was minor compared to Croudstrike
No they haven't. It's Crowdstrike's bug but it's Microsoft's problem that they accepted a change in their kernel without testing.
Did the title change? Because it doesn't say "another outage" it says "new outage"
Is that a meaningful difference?
yes, do you think it's not?
In common usage, "new outage" assumes generally assumes, well, new-as-compared-to-something-else. So yes, while the literal meanings are different, I'd interpret them as synonyms in this context.
