other sysadmin communities and downdetector are reporting outages worldwide to the admin portals such as admin.microsoft.com and portal.azure.com.

No impact to user-facing services, yet.

      No, but their uptime is a lot better than most. A lot of companies would have monthly outages just for patching before they moved to massively scaled hosted services.

      Remember when BlackBerry would have an outage maybe once a year and everyone complained?

        True but the impact of these AWS/Azure/Google outages is huge and affects companies and services world wide.

        But usually with smarter people operating more complex and resilient systems.

        Or so you’d think lol.
