Global access problem at Microsoft

According to the data of the Downdetector site, which monitors service outages, user notifications were recorded regarding problems accessing Microsoft 365, Outlook and Teams services as of 20.30 GMT.

In the statement made by Microsoft, it was stated that it was detected that the load on a certain part of the infrastructure increased in more than one region, and this may have caused connection errors.

In the statement, it was stated that all possible ways were evaluated to reduce the impacts, all distribution operations were stopped, additional traffic from the affected infrastructure was directed to other points and the affected servers were restarted to put them back into service.

In the statement, it was reported that the increased load was not due to the increase in traffic, that it was determined that the unexpected shutdown of some servers increased the load on the remaining infrastructure, and that efforts were continuing to safely put the servers back into service.

In the statement, it was emphasized that a configuration change was tested in order to fix the problem that caused the servers to fail automatic health checks and become disabled, and it was stated that the process of restarting all affected servers was started simultaneously and their status was monitored while the servers were put back into service.

In the statement, it was noted that an alternative service health check method has been verified, this method has enabled some of the affected servers to be returned to service, and the change in question has begun to be implemented on a wider scale.

EVEN THOUGH MORE THAN 12 HOURS HAVE PASSED, THE PROBLEM CONTINUES

On the other hand, although more than 12 hours have passed since the problem occurred, the access problem still continues.

In the latest statement from Microsoft, it was stated that the changes made to improve services and eliminate the outage "did not yield results as expected."

The problem experienced in 74 countries, especially Asian countries, also caused disruptions in daily life.

OTHER PLATFORMS WORKING WITH MICROSOFT ARE ALSO AFFECTED

The access problem affected Microsoft's own platforms as well as other major platforms integrated with Microsoft.

Artificial intelligence giant OpenAI announced that some of its tools were not working due to the glitch.

Anthropic also reported that there were problems with its features related to the Microsoft 365 system.

California Governor Newsom special statements at COP31: They are also aware that Trump is temporary

Although the USA withdrew from climate diplomacy with the Trump administration, 2024 vice presidential candidate Minnesota Governor Tim Waltz and California Governor Gavin Newsom, who is rumored to be the Democratic Party's presidential candidate in 2028, came to COP31 to participate in the panel of the US climate action coalition 'America Is All In'. Speaking to a group of journalists from local media, only Haberturk.com, after the panel, Newsom said about the elections: "I was pleased to see the election results in Brazil. But Trump was not happy to see the election results. I was pleased to see the election results in Hungary and Serbia, Brazil and Israel, and also in my own country. This gives me a sense of well-being and optimism. And I think it also gives billions of people around the world..." Regarding the tension regarding the regulations between the EU and the USA, Newsom said, "I think they are aware that Donald Trump is temporary. I hope that many leaders in the European Union will not bow down in the face of threats, accusations and attacks, will stand firm and act in unity."
