Per update from Azure: We initiated the deployment of our ‘last known good’ configuration, which has now successfully been completed. Customers may have begun to see initial signs of recovery. We are currently recovering nodes and routing traffic through healthy nodes, and as we make progress in this workstream, customers will continue to see improvement.

Update -
We are still affected by Azure incident:
Azure Front Door - Connectivity issues - Applying mitigation
Starting at approximately 16:00 UTC, customers and Microsoft services leveraging Azure Front Door (AFD) may have experienced latencies, timeouts, and errors. We have confirmed that an inadvertent configuration change was the trigger event for this issue.
Current status:
We have initiated the deployment of our last known good configuration. This deployment was initially expected to complete within 45 minutes; however, due to protective blocks we have put in place to safeguard the AFD service, we are encountering some delays. While progress is ongoing, these safeguards are extending the overall deployment time. Once the rollout is complete, we will begin recovering nodes and re-routing traffic through healthy nodes to accelerate recovery.
Customer configuration changes will remain temporarily blocked while we continue mitigation efforts. We will notify customers once this block has been lifted.
Some customers may also have experienced issues accessing the Azure management portal. We have failed the portal away from AFD to mitigate these access issues. Customers should now be able to access the Azure management portal directly, and while most portal extensions are functioning correctly, a small number of endpoints (e.g., Marketplace) may still experience intermittent loading problems.
We do not yet have an ETA for full mitigation, but we will provide another update within 30 minutes or once the deployment has completed. At that point, we will have a clearer understanding of the timeline for full recovery.
Starting at approximately 16:00 UTC, we began experiencing DNS issues resulting in availability degradation of some services. Customers may experience issues accessing the Azure Portal. We have taken action that is expected to address the portal access issues here shortly. We are actively investigating the underlying issue and additional mitigation actions. More information will be provided within 60 minutes or sooner.
