During a cloud deployment, monitoring shows that every virtual machine, storage volume, and network endpoint in a particular region has become unreachable at the same time. According to outage classifications, what type of event is occurring?
When every component in the affected scope becomes unavailable, the situation is classified as a full outage. Full outages require extensive remediation because no redundant services are available within that scope. In contrast, a partial outage or service degradation affects only some resources, and planned maintenance windows are scheduled events that administrators prepare for in advance.
