Azure Service Health
A service that gives personalized alerts and guidance on Azure service issues and planned maintenance.
Azure Service Health is a dashboard in the Azure portal that delivers personalized notifications about outages, planned maintenance, and health advisories scoped to the Azure regions and services you actually use. It surfaces three feeds: Service Issues (active disruptions), Planned Maintenance (upcoming changes that may affect availability), and Health Advisories (actions you should take to avoid degradation). The key exam distinction is that Service Health reports on the health of the Azure platform itself, whereas Azure Monitor tracks the health and performance of the resources you deploy. A classic trap conflates the two: a data-center networking problem triggers Service Health, while a virtual machine’s CPU spiking is Azure Monitor territory.
