Microsoft 365 Apps Unavailability
The USPTO is currently
focusing their investigation on high CPU utilization that is occurring on the
components which facilitate the back-end API calls for the navigation headers
and features. The USPTO is changing some specific configurations which were
part of a service update that occurred on Monday, April 17. This might provide
relief whilst we continue to investigate the source of the high CPU
utilization.
