Microsoft has restored full service to Outlook and Teams following a massive global outage that lasted more than 24 hours and affected workplace communications across over 70 countries. The tech giant blamed server issues for the incident that crippled two of the most widely used workplace applications with hundreds of millions of users worldwide.

According to reports, the outage caused significant disruption to business communications and email services globally. Microsoft has apologised for the incident and ruled out both cyber attacks and AI failures as the cause.

The disruption is estimated to have cost the global economy at least $7 billion, making it one of the most significant technology incidents in recent years. The company has confirmed that full service restoration is now complete and normal operations have resumed.
