I hope things work themselves out!
We use two AliCloud servers, with a mid level spec set up.

Azure is out of our price range.We got everything back online in about 10-15 minutes thankfully after working it out. But resulted in roughly 2000 RMB loss based on our average conversation rate.


I was in a product meeting at the time so was not aware of the exact technical details. Will c check with our IT team today to find out exactly what happened.
