Microsoft Faces Outages and Cyberattacks: What You Need to Know.

TL;DR Summary
Microsoft 365 users in Western Europe experienced service problems due to a datacenter in Germany not performing optimally. Complaints ranged from error messages while opening Outlook to LinkedIn being down. The UK seemed to have avoided many of the issues. Microsoft later confirmed that the problem was fixed. The outages in Europe come a week after Microsoft saw wide-ranging outages of Microsoft 365 services and the Azure Cloud portal, which were caused by distributed denial-of-services (DDoS) attacks by a group that the company is tracking as Storm-1359.
