  3. postmortem Dec 17, 2021, 03:53 PM UTC

    The Azure App Service appeared to fail. Attempts to scale or move were unsuccessful and were prevented by Microsoft with an error that Microsoft knew about the problem and that no action was required from us. Don opened a support ticket with Microsoft, but by the time they started working on the ticket, Microsoft had apparently resolved the issue and put the app service back in service. Since returning to service, the app service has been running normally.
