Downdetector analysed data between the first and third quarters of 2024 to draw up a list of the"largest outages" of 2024., has found that Microsoft 365 and Facebook outages in March were the most impactful such events in 2024 across Africa and the Middle East.
Downdetector analysed data between the first and third quarters of 2024 to draw up a list of the “largest outages of 2024 at a global level and sorted by region”. The Microsoft and Facebook outages were global events that affected not only the region, but users across the world.– which is surprising given the global headlines that the July incident, which affected millions of Windows computers, drew. The Crowdstrike event, which temporarily bricked PCs, requiring a manual fix, is second in Downdetector’s global list, following by an AT&T outage in the US in February and an Instagram outage in March.
Rounding out the top five in the region were a WhatsApp outage in April and problems affecting MTN South Africa in July. –The work we do at TechCentral is made possible through the support of our commercial partners.
