The Register: “GitHub appears to be struggling with measly three nines availability. Scarcely a day goes by without an outage at a cloud service. Forget five nines – the way things are going, one nine is looking like an ambitious goal. GitHub has had a rough month so far. On February 9, Actions, pull requests, notifications, and Copilot all experienced issues. The Microsoft tentacle admitted it was having problems with “some GitHub services” at 1554 UTC before it confessed to notification delays of “around 50 minutes”. It took until 1929 UTC for the company to confirm that things were back to normal, although the delay was down to “approximately 30 minutes” by 1757 UTC. One of its flagship technologies, Copilot, also suffered. From 1629 UTC on February 9 to 0957 UTC on February 10, GitHub reported problems in Copilot policy propagation for some users. The code shack said: “This may prevent newly enabled models from appearing when users try to access them.”
