Here in Minnesota, several coworkers and I are having trouble with our ISP. And a website we host is (apparently) being DDoSed. And now GitHub's down, and you're reporting some Azure issue. Is something going on...?
No, I don't think so (and I'm also in Minnesota). I'm going to guess that the increased load is just pushing services over the edge.
Edit: Also, interestingly enough, I am now reliably hitting Cloudflare's ORD (Chicago) datacenter instead of MSP. If you visit https://snazz.xyz/cdn-cgi/trace (or any other Cloudflare-backed website), what comes after the COLO= for you?
Getting rerouted to ORD instead of DEN as well. Coworkers have been complaining about slow internet all day, there’s been customer complaints about slow load times with our products as well.
Or their data centers are just full. Teams had a tremendous growth, so did their O365 suite and probably also Azure itself. At some point even the largest vendors run out of servers.
For companies that live on Office 365, it is very popular. With COVID-19, it became a very quick add-on for groups that were already in the O365 ecosystem to add group chat functionality, pretty much with a few clicks. My son’s school was using it before they went remote, but now their usage has increased dramatically.

STL! Ha. Wonder what's going on. I'm on CenturyLink here in the Twin Cities.

Also having erratic few minutes outage from my ISP in the UK, which never happened for years.
Global network issue somewhere?
Also having issues with CenturyLink fiber at home in MN. Stuff is very slow today.
They posted a warning that the uptick in Teams usage and general cloud use has meant they have much less spare capacity - see https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/update-2-on-microsoft...
Sure, just anecdotally this is my first time running into this so it might be that capacity issues are particularly acute right now.
Even that article states that there hadn't been any service disruptions in the US up to now, but I am certainly experiencing it now.

I had never heard of Microsoft Teams until yesterday when I saw it on a TV commercial.
