## Updates from Elastic Cloud
### 2026-05-29 06:32 UTC: investigating
We are continuing to investigate the impact of an upstream Azure WestUS2 outage which is impacting Elastic services and deployment healthiness, including Elastic Serverless projects hosted in this region.
We have confirmed that impact to our service is limited to a single availability zone (westus2-2). Customers whose deployments are not configured for high availability may experience intermittent errors, delays, or inability to access certain features.
Deployments configured for high availability across multiple zones are not expected to be affected.
Our team is working to mitigate the situation and the impact on our environment. We will provide further updates as more information becomes available.

### 2026-05-29 11:46 UTC: identified
We continue to respond to an upstream Microsoft Azure outage in Azure West US 2 (azure-westus2), caused by a datacenter power event reported by Azure. Elastic impact remains limited to availability zone westus2-2.
Customers with deployments not configured for high availability in this region may continue to experience intermittent connectivity errors, degraded performance, or delays when performing deployment operations (including create, edit, restart, and delete). 
Deployments configured for high availability across multiple availability zones are not expected to be affected.
Our teams are actively remediating affected infrastructure in the impacted zone. Recovery progress is currently constrained by degraded Azure platform APIs and capacity availability in the region.
