Microsoft’s Windows Azure Experiences Major Outage

Windows Azure, Microsoft's cloud services, have been down for a few hours ago in various regions around the world.
Apparently, even if the services were meant to be excessive, and the outage should only affect a small area, the system is down all over the world.
Microsoft has announced that they were aware of the situation and that it is working on solving the problem. This service has been down since 01:45 GMT.
The company has been offering the service status update on this page online, but the website seems to go down well at the moment.
"We have problems with the management of Windows Azure services. Customers will not be able to conduct operations management services," Microsoft said on the page, the Inquirer reports.
In addition, the company also announced a few hours later that he found the root of the problem and that it is working on resolving this problem.
The company has tested the fix for the issue for several hours, and have started to roll it out.
"We have begun a phased launch of the latest improvements in North Central U.S. sub-region. As we continue through launch, we will further allow the back to the customer service management," said the Redmond-based software giant said on the page.
"Further development will be published to make you know about the situation. We apologize for any inconvenience this causes our customers."
This is not the first outage hits Microsoft Windows Azure platform. This service has been down for almost a day back in 2009. Apparently, even if Microsoft tried to eliminate all possible problems with it, there are still some problems remained unsolved.
We have tried to access the Windows Azure Service status page for the last few hours is not over. However, given the fact that Microsoft has found the cause of the problem, should not be too long before they finish. Stay tuned for more on this.
