3 weeks into getting dragged into another MS-stack project, I have already been repeatedly reminded why I decided to invest so much energy in moving my career as far away from Microsoft dependency as possible. Even something as simple as reviewing settings on Azure App Service is a hit-or-miss affair, being completely unavailable for hours at a time at least once a week. Azure Functions are consistently unavailable for at least a few minutes every day. Don't even get me started on "Azure DevOps".

Why the fuck do people still place their trust (and critical infrastructure) in the hands of Microsoft?

    Well Microsoft prefixes their stuff with "enterprise" which means it must be better! /s

    Got well over 70 Web applications on Azure, with projects planned and managed in Azure DevOps (migrated from on prem TFS about 6 years ago)
    Full CI/CD pipelines, automated build-test-release...
    Less that 1 minute downtime in 5 years.
    Been flawless for us!

    @xPunxNotDeadx 70 WordPress instances doesn't count

    @nathanchere 0% PHP across the whole estate!
    In fact, only about 7 of those applications are packaged CMS - which are umbraco anyway!
