Update

Recent changes made to improve SharePoint and Teams backup performance did not produce the expected results. Our R&D team will be implementing additional mitigation measures over the next 24 hours to further stabilize SharePoint and Teams backups for customers on the pod. As part of this work, we will be temporarily reducing backup frequency for customers from 2x backups per day to 1x backups per day. These adjustments are intended to improve overall system reliability while long‑term enhancements continue.
