Pretty much all Azure services seem to be down. Their status page says it's only the portal since 16:00. It would be nice if these mega-companies could update their status page when they take down a large fraction of the Internet and thousands of services that use them.

FWIW, all of our databases, VMs, AKS clusters, services, jobs etc - are all working fine. Which services are down for you, maybe we can build a list?

Front Door is down for us (as Azure‘s Twitter account confirms)

All of our Azure workloads are up, but we don't use Azure Front Door. That seems to be the only impacted product, apart from the management portal.

We're using Application Gateway for ingress, that seems to be effected.

Same playbook for AWS. When they admitted that Dynamo was inaccessible, they failed to provide context that their internal services are heavily dependent on Dynamo

It's only after the fact they are transparent about the impact

Does their status page depend on something that is down already, so the page just fails static now hence no new updates?
