Microsoft Azure customers across Asia, the Middle East and parts of Europe experienced measurable latency and intermittent slowdowns after multiple undersea fiber‑optic cables in the Red Sea were reported cut on September 6, 2025, forcing cloud traffic onto longer detours while Microsoft and...

Microsoft has quietly begun the most consequential recalibration of its productivity‑AI stack since Copilot’s debut: Office 365 will now route select Copilot workloads to Anthropic’s Claude family—most notably the Sonnet 4 lineage—alongside continued use of OpenAI models and Microsoft’s own...

Microsoft’s surprise agreement with Nebius to supply large blocks of AI compute to Azure marks a strategic pivot: rather than racing to open more hyperscale data centers itself, Microsoft is contracting external “neocloud” capacity to close short-term gaps in U.S. availability while it...

Microsoft’s decision to fold Anthropic’s models into Office 365 represents a deliberate, high-stakes recalibration of its AI supply chain — one that pares dependence on a single vendor, broadens technical options inside Copilot features, and reshapes enterprise risk calculations for productivity...

Microsoft's Azure cloud felt the ripple effects of a string of undersea fiber cuts in the Red Sea on September 6, 2025, as traffic carrying vital Asia–Europe and Middle East connections was forced onto longer, more congested routes — a stark reminder that even the largest cloud platforms remain...

Xbox’s latest move with LG pulls cloud gaming out of the living room and into the passenger seat, bringing a native Xbox app to internet‑connected cars that run LG’s webOS‑based Automotive Content Platform so passengers can stream Xbox Cloud Gaming (Beta) titles via Xbox Game Pass Ultimate while...

Internet traffic between South Asia, the Gulf and parts of the Middle East slowed dramatically after multiple subsea fibre‑optic cables in the Red Sea were damaged, forcing carriers and cloud providers to reroute traffic, prompting Microsoft Azure to warn customers of higher latency and exposing...

Microsoft’s Azure cloud briefly showed the limits of virtual resilience when several undersea fiber-optic cables in the Red Sea were cut on 6 September 2025, forcing traffic onto longer detours, producing higher-than-normal latency for cross‑region traffic, and triggering urgent...

Microsoft’s Copilot Studio has moved from built‑in guardrails to active, near‑real‑time intervention: organizations can now route an agent’s planned actions to external monitors that approve or block those actions while the agent is executing, enabling step‑level enforcement that ties existing...

Microsoft Azure customers experienced measurable performance degradation after multiple undersea fiber‑optic cables in the Red Sea were cut, forcing traffic onto longer, often congested detours and exposing persistent structural vulnerabilities in the global internet backbone. Background /...

Microsoft warned that Azure customers could see increased latency after multiple undersea fiber-optic cables were cut in the Red Sea, forcing emergency rerouting of traffic and exposing fragile single points in global cloud and internet infrastructure. Background The disruption began on...

A sudden cluster of undersea fiber cuts in the Red Sea has forced Microsoft Azure and other cloud and carrier operators to reroute traffic, producing measurable latency and slower internet performance across parts of South Asia, the Gulf and beyond—an event that exposes how a handful of damaged...

A concentrated cluster of undersea cable failures in the Red Sea has throttled internet performance across South Asia and the Gulf, forcing cloud providers and carriers to reroute traffic and leaving businesses and consumers to contend with higher latency, intermittent packet loss, and slower...

Microsoft warned customers that portions of Azure experienced higher‑than‑normal latency after multiple undersea fiber‑optic cables in the Red Sea were reported cut on September 6, 2025 — an event that forced international traffic onto longer, congested detours, produced localized slowdowns...

Microsoft Azure users experienced widespread performance degradation after multiple undersea fiber-optic cables in the Red Sea were cut, forcing Microsoft to reroute traffic, warn of increased latency for routes through the Middle East, and reigniting urgent questions about cloud resilience...

Onlive Server’s new India-focused dedicated server offering promises a straightforward, low-cost path to colocated performance: instant deployment from Mumbai, full root access, SSD/NVMe storage, built-in DDoS protection, and plans starting at roughly $139/month — a bundle aimed at e-commerce...

Microsoft has warned customers that parts of Azure may show higher‑than‑normal latency after multiple undersea fiber‑optic cables in the Red Sea were reported cut on 6 September 2025, forcing traffic onto longer detours while carriers and cloud operators reroute and rebalance capacity...

Microsoft Azure experienced measurable increases in network latency after multiple undersea fibre cuts were detected in the Red Sea, forcing cloud traffic between Asia, Europe and the Middle East onto alternate, longer paths and exposing brittle points in the world’s physical internet backbone...

Microsoft’s Azure cloud experienced measurable performance degradation after multiple undersea fiber‑optic cables in the Red Sea were cut, forcing traffic onto longer detours and producing higher‑than‑normal latency for customers whose data traversed the affected Middle East corridor...
