Hello Andreas Bergwitz-Larsen,
The prolonged slowness and timeouts you are experiencing on your resource (aoa-openai-fallback-dev-ne) typically occur due to temporary backend capacity constraints in that specific region, or a stuck deployment state that causes the Azure AI Foundry UI to endlessly hang.
To resolve this, please try the following steps:
- Use InPrivate/Incognito Mode: Stale browser cache is a common culprit for UI hangs in AI Foundry. Open a fresh private window and attempt the deployment again.
- Deploy via Azure CLI: Bypass the portal UI completely. Deploying the model using the Azure CLI communicates directly with the backend API, which is often faster and will either succeed or provide a much clearer error message regarding quota or capacity.
- Test an Alternate Region: If your architecture allows, try deploying the model in a different region (such as Sweden Central or East US). If it deploys instantly there, your current region is temporarily constrained for that specific model type.
I hope you've found something useful here. If it helps you get more insight into the issue, it's appreciated to accept the answer. Should you have more questions, feel free to leave a message.
Have a nice day!
