Have you seen what they have allocated themselves?

Streaming Media is citing internal sources and is saying that Microsoft has reserved up to 40 Tbps with all of the key CDNs which is a massive amount of bandwidth. As of July 28th at 1PM ET, Microsoft is said to already be consuming over 10 Tbps and seeing that all regions are not yet online for deployment, it's only going to go higher.

The first wave of upgrades have pre-loaded. I would imagine they will then start the next wave tomorrow and continue in stages. I did read they are expecting a 21 day cycle for initial upgrades but unsure if it is true although it makes sense to keep server loads under control.

Apparently purchased 40Tbps bandwidth from the actual internet. For scale, the iOS 8 rollout used 5Tbps. This is probably the single largest internet event ever.
