Microsoft global outage/Scottish Parliament suspends work

Heathrow, NatWest and Minecraft are among some of the sites and services experiencing problems due to a global Microsoft outage.

Outage tracker Downdetector showed thousands of reports of problems with a number of websites globally on Wednesday. Microsoft said some Microsoft 365 users may experience delays with Outlook and other services.

The company's Azure cloud computing platform, which powers large parts of the internet, reported a "degradation of some services" at 16:00 GMT.

It said this was due to "DNS issues," the same root cause of the major Amazon Web Services (AWS) outage last week.

Amazon says AWS is currently operating normally. Other locations affected in the UK include supermarket Asda and mobile phone operator O2.

Microsoft said that Microsoft 365 business customers may see issues. It said it had found parts of its infrastructure with connectivity issues and was working to “reroute affected traffic to restore service health.”

A discussion thread has been started on X with updates after some users reported that they were unable to access the service's status page. Meanwhile, work at the Scottish Parliament has been suspended due to technical problems with the parliament's online voting system. A senior Scottish Parliament source told BBC News that they believe the problems are related to the Microsoft outage./ CNA, translated by BBC
