Is anyone else experiencing problems connecting to their Azure virtual machines or noticing host pools that keep dropping and coming back online?

Thank goodness I’m in EUS2 right now!
Same here in East US about an hour ago. That region has been really unstable lately.
I noticed that our Cloudflare tunnel is also randomly down today. Could it be connected to this issue?
For alerts on downtime, try using the Speedtest app. It provides some helpful down alerts.
We discovered that two of our VMs have switched IP configurations. Not sure why that happened, but digging into it is going to be fun.
Yeah, I had the same issue earlier in East US. It felt like the network just disappeared for about five minutes, but it seems to be okay now. Still, I suspect there’s something bigger going on.
Microsoft is currently holding a bridge for us, admitting there are some performance issues, but our applications are completely down right now.
It's weird because there haven’t been any official reports about this yet.
It was a complete mess! I think a lot of people don't realize how complex public cloud infrastructures are, even for the teams managing them.
I know, right? My Copilot told me the code it generated was solid. Who would have thought this outage would happen?

We're still stuck, unable to access some VMs even through the Azure portal. It's frustrating!
