    About our Azure Virtual Machines status page integration

    Azure Virtual Machines (Cloud computing platform for AI, data analytics, and application development) is a a Cloud Infrastructure and Microsoft solution that StatusGator has been monitoring since March 2015. Over the past almost 11 years, we have collected data on on more than 1,958 outages that affected Azure Virtual Machines users. When Azure Virtual Machines publishes downtime on their status page, they do so across 7,198 components and 71 groups using 3 different statuses: up, warn, and down which we use to provide granular uptime metrics and notifications.

    If you're wondering, "Is Azure Virtual Machines down?", or need to know its current status, we've got you covered. Our platform tracks every reported outage, performance issue, and maintenance window to ensure you're informed.

    • Early Warning Signals

      If we detect a potential Azure Virtual Machines outage or other issue before it was reported on the official status page we will send an Early Warning Signal notification to StatusGator subscribers. We can often detect issues before they are officially acknowledged by the provider, giving you a head start on resolving any potential problems.

    • Down Notifications

      If Azure Virtual Machines is having system outages or experiencing other critical issues, red down notifications appear on the status page. In most cases, it means that core functions are not working properly, or there is some other serious customer-impacting event underway.

    • Warning Notifications

      Warn notifications are used when Azure Virtual Machines is undergoing a non-critical issue like minor service issues, performance degradation, non-core bugs, capacity issues, or problems affecting a small number of users.

    • Maintenance Notifications

      Azure Virtual Machines does not post separate notifications for planned maintenance work so we are unable to send notifications when maintenance windows begin. If you need Azure Virtual Machines maintenance notifications, please email us.

    • Status Messages

      When Azure Virtual Machines posts issues on their status page, we collect the main headline message and include that brief information or overview in notifications to StatusGator subscribers.

    • Status Details

      When Azure Virtual Machines has outages or other service-impacting events on their status page, we pull down the detailed informational updates and include them in notifications. These messages often include the current details about how the problem is being mitigated, or when the next update will occur.

    • Component Status Filtering

      Because Azure Virtual Machines has several components, each with their individual statuses, StatusGator can differentiate the status of each component in our notifications to you whenever a particular component is down. This means, you can filter your status page notifications based on the services, regions, or components you utilize. This is an essential feature for complex services with many components or services spread out across many regions.
