Microsoft 365 Dienste temporär ausgefallen (10.11.2023)

[En]Kurze Information zum Feierabend – seit dem heutigen 11. November 2023 scheint es seit Vormittag Probleme beim Zugriff auf Microsoft 365 Dienste zu geben. Das soll sich auf Europa beziehen, aber Deutschland und Großbritannien sind von Microsoft als betroffen benannt worden. Grund war ein gestiegenes Netzwerkverkehrsaufkommen, welches wohl DNS-Abfragen negativ beeinträchtigte. Durch Konfigurationsänderungen sollte das Problem behoben worden sein.

Blog-Leser Andreas P. hat mir den Auszug aus Microsoft Statusseiten per Mail zukommen lassen (danke dafür). Der Beitrag ist unter MO688737 von Microsoft bestätigt worden. Hier der Auszug von Microsoft.
