Outage alerts
CheckedEmail alerts are free for up to 5 providers, and Slack, Teams, Discord, and webhook delivery come with paid plans. Every alert is driven by Azure's official status feed, checked about every 10 minutes around the clock.
Why it matters
Azure recorded 100% uptime across 56 monitored days in the last 90 days. The official feed logged 7 incident entries in that window. Those are exactly the changes subscribers hear about first.
We are investigating an issue impacting multiple Azure services in the West US regions. Engineering teams are actively assessing the scope and working to mitigate customer impact. Further updates will be shared as they become available
We have mitigated a power-related infrastructure issue that affected a subset of Azure services in Southeast Asia. Most services have recovered and are operating normally. A remaining issue affecting a single storage stamp is being tracked separately, and impacted customers are b
Alerts can cover the whole platform or just the parts you depend on. Narrowing means you hear about incidents affecting that service, not every Azure status change.
New incident
A fresh incident appeared on the official feed and started within the last 24 hours. Historical backfills never alert.
Incident update
An open incident moved through its lifecycle (investigating → identified → monitoring …).
Incident resolved
An incident was resolved upstream, or disappeared from the provider's active feed.
Status change
The provider's overall status flipped (e.g., Operational → Partial outage).
Every delivery is claimed exactly once per event, retried once on failure, and recorded, so overlapping check runs can never double-notify you. Alerts are driven by Azure's official status source: the official Azure status page remains the authoritative reference.
Everything on this page is also machine-readable, free, and account-less: subscribe to the Azure RSS feed, poll the JSON API, or embed the live Azure status badge in a README or dashboard.
