After almost 7 hours of downtime I just got back on my @umassalumni.bsky.social email account. Hopefully Microsoft will let us know what caused the multi hour outage of Outlook.

This has been the best day of my chairship so far. Likely to be followed tomorrow by the worst as I catch up on the emails I should have received.
Microsoft reported an outage involving its sprawling set of software tools early Thursday afternoon. The outage, which the company said may affect business and consumer users in “any region,” has continued for at least four hours, customers reported.
Outlook, Teams and More Microsoft Programs Disrupted by Outage
The company said that some of its servers were unexpectedly unavailable, straining the remaining infrastructure, and that it was working to bring users back online.

A worldwide Microsoft outage means Outlook and Teams is inaccessible, and I would wager any sum that job satisfaction at workplaces the world over has dramatically increased.

6.5 hours in, Microsoft Exchange Online traffic is still ~90% below normal for the time of day in @kentik.bsky.social OTT data. That matches @msft365status.bsky.social’s latest update: servers returned to service go unresponsive again once they receive traffic.
