@getajobmike I worked at GitHub for six years starting in 2019. There's this persistent rumor that after the MSFT acquisition they got pushed onto a bunch of Microsoft infra.
For the entire time I was there github.com continued running primarily on bare metal. Newer stuff like Actions and Copilot do use Azure, and there are some new enterprise cloud offerings that run in Azure.
What has changed and made a bigger contribution to this instability is that GitHub traffic grew by hundreds of %.
