Datto SaaS Protection - Backup performance degradation for some M365 services on Multiple Pods
Incident Lifecycle
Incident Timeline
Identified
Significant improvement to backup success rate metrics has been observed across all regions after the latest changes were implemented.
Our R&D team is continuing to deploy configuration changes to further stabilize backup performance in all regions. Backup success rates will continue to be closely monitored as the team is actively working to develop additional improvements to address the API throttling related to the transition from EWS to Microsoft Graph APIs currently in progress.

Our R&D team has completed deployment of the configuration changes to SaaS Protection pods in all regions.
Daily backup cadence is now temporarily set to 2x backups per day across the fleet to reduce API throttling and help stabilize backup success rate metrics during the transition from EWS to Microsoft Graph APIs.
Our R&D team is closely monitoring the effects of the changes and expect backup success rates to begin stabilizing over the next several hours.

Identified
Our R&D team continues to address backup performance issues affecting some Microsoft 365 services across multiple SaaS Protection pods following the transition from EWS to Microsoft Graph APIs.
To help stabilize backup success rates and reduce API throttling during this migration, backup cadence on affected pods will be temporarily reduced from 3x backups per day to 2x backups per day.
