Bing faced big issue, very bad
Dec 4th
Microsoft had launched a new search engine, Bing. Bing was created to tackle with the google, world’s number one search engine. But, recently, the bing suffered from outage. Outage didn’t last too long, but when it comes to a big company like microsoft, any kind of outage is bad. Users were unable to use Bing from around 6:30pm to 7:00pm (give or take 10 minutes on either side) Pacific time.
Microsoft senior vice president of the online services division, Mr. Satyam Nadella, wrote post on the same saying “The cause of the outage was a configuration change during some internal testing that had unfortunate and unintended consequences. We strive to maintain a high standard of operational excellence at Bing. We are running a post mortem to find out how our software and processes need to be improved to prevent anything like this from happening again.”
Looks like, Bing team is working hard to serve the best. Let’s cross the fingers for them. Good Luck Bing.
