How can we improve Azure Cloud Services (Web and Worker Role)?

← Cloud Services (Web and Worker Role)

Enable renaming of Cloud Services

Please provide an administrator the ability to rename an existing Cloud Service. It would be more convenient to be able to rename an existing Cloud Service than the current alternative of creating a separate Cloud Service with a new name and then migrating over to it.

We’re thinking about some networking updates across the platform that will enable this feature. Thanks for your feedback

    Please enable this feature. It would be really useful or at least a good powershell method of achieving it.

    Yes, usually I use the Ahsay Online Backup software. It is an advanced disk-to-disk-to-disk (D2D2D) backup solution for Businesses and MSPs / VARs. It comes with the most comprehensive features that can fulfill all the on-premises backup, online backup, offsite backup, and cloud backup needs of nowadays businesses. At the same time, it is the most affordable backup solution available in the market. For more information check this:http://www.ahsay.com/jsp/en/home/index.jsp?pageContentKey=ahsay_products_overview

    Thank you Tabrez. It would be very helpful to be able to rename Cloud Services as well as Storage Services. Generally what happens to me is that I make a clerical error in the name and then the PowerShell programmers curse my name for all eternity because I have broken our naming convention.

    Hi There,

    I think this is really unbelievable, I mean you guys created a whole IaaS platform but do not allow for users to change the service name? It is only about verifying if that name has been taken before or not, and if not, then update it.
    We just finished a complex configuration of MongoSharded with 6 servers, and our Team Leader does not want us to us one specific name, now we are supposed to reconfigure 6 servers again ):
    Let us know as soon as you guys put this feature in! Thanks!
