Azure DevOps has had some serious issue over the past couple of weeks with availability here in Europe.

A really good open and detailed root cause analysis has just been posted by the Azure DevOps team at Microsoft. It also covers the mitigations they are putting place to make sure this same issues do not occur again.

We all have to remember that the cloud is not magic. Cloud service providers will have problems like any on-premise services; but trying to hide them does nothing to build confidence. So I for one applaud posts like this. I just wish all cloud service providers were as open when problem occur.
