Is Azure down, or is it just you?
Multiple independent check rounds from rimetry's monitoring infrastructure, run seconds apart.
Our checks reached Azure successfully in every round of the last check cycle.
| Check round | Last check | Success rate (24h) | Avg response |
|---|---|---|---|
| Round 1 | Reachable | 100% | 556 ms |
| Round 2 | Reachable | 100% | 1,021 ms |
| Round 3 | Reachable | 100% | 530 ms |
| Round 4 | Reachable | 100% | 827 ms |
Based on 3,236 automated checks in the last 24 hours. Each round is an independent pass over the same endpoint, seconds apart — a single failing round is not an outage; repeated failures across rounds are.
What can be affected on Azure?
These are the main Azure functions that can experience separate issues.
- ConsoleCheck the API or CLI when the console will not load
- APICheck whether the API behaves differently from the web interface
- ComputeCheck one instance in another region before scaling changes
- StorageCheck a second bucket or region before assuming full storage loss
- NetworkingTest from a second network path before opening a ticket
- IAM & permissionsConfirm the permission change is not the cause before escalating
This list shows which parts can fail on their own. It does not mean any of them is failing right now — the live status above is the only claim we make about the current state.

About Azure
Azure provides enterprise-level cloud computing via services like Virtual Machines, Azure SQL Database, and Azure Active Directory. Users rely on these tools for hosting web applications, managing identity through Entra ID, and running large-scale data storage solutions. When the platform encounters issues, developers typically report failures in the Azure Portal, deployment errors in DevOps pipelines, or connectivity drops in specific regional availability zones. Rimetry monitors these cloud services from various global endpoints to verify that Microsoft's infrastructure remains accessible and responsive for your operations.
Problems with Azure can affect console, api, compute independently.
Azure (azure.microsoft.com) is a cloud & security service monitored continuously by rimetry's automated checks. We probe its public endpoints every 60 seconds in repeated independent rounds to detect outages and latency spikes the moment they happen.
Right now Azure is reporting as operational across our probes, with an average response time of 57 ms and 100.00% uptime over the last 24 hours. Most users connecting to azure.microsoft.com are seeing it work normally.
Common causes of disruption for services like Azure include backend API failures, region-specific routing problems at the CDN or ISP layer, expired TLS certificates, DNS misconfigurations, and capacity spikes during major events. rimetry combines automated probes, vendor status feeds, and verified community reports to give you a single high-confidence answer instead of guessing.

What is Azure?
Microsoft's cloud platform.
Azure is part of our Cloud & Security category. You can also review current trending outages across the internet.
Common issues
- · Console or management API unavailable
- · Region-specific errors while other regions are healthy
- · Authentication and permission failures
- · Elevated latency at the network edge
Similar patterns often surface across other cloud & security providers — cross-check against the global outage map.
Troubleshooting
- · Check the API or CLI when the console will not load
- · Check whether the API behaves differently from the web interface
- · Check one instance in another region before scaling changes
- · Check a second bucket or region before assuming full storage loss
- · Identify whether the control plane or the running workload is affected — they fail separately
- · Check a second region before concluding the whole provider is down
- · Verify DNS resolution and certificate validity from your side
- · Review IAM changes made recently; permission errors mimic outages
- · Retry idempotent operations with backoff
- · Check Azure's official social channels
Not sure whether it's you or the service? Run a live speed test, check what your IP looks like from the edge, or watch for regional trouble on the worldwide outage map. For the wider picture, browse recent incidents or filter down to cloud & security.
FAQ
- Is Azure down for everyone?
Use the live status above — green means it's likely just you. - How often is the status updated?
Every minute from four global regions. - Is Azure Console down?
Console can fail on its own, separately from the rest of Azure. Compare the live status above with your own test of that specific function. - Where can I see past Azure incidents?
Every event we've recorded lives in the live incident feed, and older ones are grouped in the monthly incident archive. - What else is broken right now?
See the trending outages page or narrow it to cloud & security.
