To be clear, for those reading these comments and thinking “oh no Azure”, this is an addition to the list of cloud companies that provide “cloud infrastructure worldwide” for “all products”. Alongside GCP and AWS. This is not a GitHub style announcement that they’ve moved all operations to Azure.

Coincidently, Claude Code appears to be down right now (in Europe West at least).

Everytime I hear of something X Azure announcement, that something just seem to break right away.

I know correlation is not causation, but my opinion of Azure is already too damn low to not link those two events.

It's also down for me here in Brazil. Getting overloaded errors for about one hour now. It's been happening a lot this week. Is this normal for Anthropic?

Working fine for me right now, from Brazil. Claude via Github Copilot at least.

I'm using Claude Code on the terminal. Not sure if it matters.

  API Error: 529
  {
    "type": "error",
    "error": {
      "type": "overloaded_error",
      "message": "Overloaded. https://docs.claude.com/en/api/errors"
    },
    "request_id": "..."
  }

The promotional double usage period is just about to end too. Sucks.

It's down for me too. A colleague says it's up though - it's possible they're shedding different groups of users (he has the Max subscription, I don't).
