Azure support shared they are working on fixing the underlying issue, we started seeing some recovery but the incident is not completely resolved yet. We are working with Azure to get this fixed as soon as possible.

Monitoring2026-09-22 15:26 UTC

The issue is still present on Azure infrastructure side and ClickHouse Cloud team is actively monitoring for any impact for existing ClickHouse Clusters. Correction on earlier impact description: Provisioning of new instances is expected to work. Operations like autoscaling of the ClickHouse Keeper replicas can be stuck or slow. Latency for insert and DDL queries are not affected, thanks to cross-AZ redundancy.

Identified2026-09-22 14:57 UTC

The Azure team is working on resolution of the issue. The ClickHouse Cloud team will relay any updates related to ClickHouse clusters operation. An excerpt from Azure incident status: > As per our investigation, we believe this stemmed from multiple underlying storage systems becoming unavailable at the same time, which led to attached virtual machines becoming unresponsive, restarting unexpectedly, or being temporarily unavailable.

The problem is caused by Azure outage in the germanywestcentral region. ClickHouse Cloud team is working with Azure support. Impact: • New ClickHouse services can't be provisioned (appear as stuck in UI). • Some services may experience higher latency due to reduced capacity.

Your coding agent knows when ClickHouse Cloud is down, and tells you when a failure is theirs, not yours. You can also get ClickHouse Cloud incidents in a feed reader or in Slack.

Prompt
Install the outages.live MCP server, so that when something breaks you can tell if the cause is a provider we depend on and not my code. It reads the official status pages of cloud, AI, payment and developer providers and gives you their incidents as MCP tools.

Add it as a remote MCP server named "outages" at https://outages.cc/mcp (Streamable HTTP, no authentication), with your CLI command or your MCP config file.

Then:
1. Make sure it connects and shows the tools get_provider, list_feed and send_feedback.
2. Call get_provider with "clickhouse" and tell me if ClickHouse Cloud has a problem right now.
3. From now on, when a call to a third-party service fails or becomes slow, call get_provider for that service before you change my code.

Paste this into any coding agent. It adds the server with its own MCP setup.
