The Azure DevOps (VSTS) team have published the promised postmortem on the outage on the 4th of September. It gives good detail on what actually happened to the South Central Azure Datacenter and how it effected VSTS (as it was then called). More interestingly it provides a discussion of mitigations they plan to put in place to stop a single datacentre failure having such a serious effect in the future. Great openness as always from the team
