Currently MS Azure notifies customers during scheduled outages, however, in the event of an emergency outage, where a customer's server is rebooted, (due to a host hardware failure, or whatever), all customers affected should be notified as a courtesy. We had an outage and had our services not started currently due to a password issues, we would have known that the server went down.

Provide Azure SQL Database service on Azure Stack for compatibility with Azure in the cloud, as currently Stack only supports SQL Server 2016.

Azure App services now support AAD, Google, Face book , Twitter and Microsoft accounts as Identity providers. A generic Open Id compliant Id provider configuration would enable many B2E scenarios

See the number of outbound tcp connections (OpenSocketCount) for each web app within a particular app service plan. I have had issues were all web apps in that service plan were failing when accessing sql server or service bus relay (anything that needs an outgoing tcp connection) because the number of open tcp connections exceeded the plan limit. I had to request the information from support to figure out what web apps had the majority of the open sockets.

We would suggest Microsoft to lunch azure in Cambodia soonest

We want to make a Oracle application auto-scale (scale-out,scale-in) using IaaS. So the concern with the application is, it supports Admin role enablement only in one VM in its cluster. So if we define a scale set and in case of scale-in the VM with Admin role enabled shuts down then that will be a problem for us. Thus can we have a feature to exclude some VM's from scale-in, so that such business scenarios can also be fulfilled by Azure.

I have a suggestion for NSG rule configuration, when we have multiple source or destination IP and ports for same type of rule we need to configure rules for individual IP and port. Here the number of rule increases. If it is possible to have option to create ip/net group and port group, it will be easier to configure rules and maintain.

Often to fail VM deployment at availability zone, like "not enough resource" or "conditions are too strict".

Expect more physical resource preparetion to availability zone environment.

Currently only operations on resources provide partial OData query syntax to filter results (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dn790569.aspx#bk_common).

Why not using $filter, $top, etc. on all REST APIs?

For example if I want to get information on every VMs with a name starting with 'foo-' I would like to do a List all VMs operation (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/mt163572.aspx) with a $filter=startswith(name, 'foo-')

We appreciate the free Azure credits to help many of us get started and learning. I signed up and didn't realize it was limited for use within a month. I signed up a few weeks before taking holiday and now that I'm back, the trial will be ending. Bummer.

Build a data center (Azure region) to Finland or Sweden. As it stands there is a lot of distance to closest data center from Finland or Sweden.

Having data center close to the customers would bring new customers and also improve service quality to old customers.

Allow groups to be delegated access to manage users in the on-premise Multifactor Server User portal

I have an app Service in Azure that contains some folders and files.

There is a user who has to upload some files to an isolated folder or drive that my app can reach. He has to upload them via ftp.

I like to limit the users access to only one folder or a specific drive that my app service can reach.

Is video distribution of H.265 encrypted with Widevine DRM possible?

The process for capturing VM image and restoring it is much more easier on the classic portal than on the Azure portal. Is there any possibility similar functionality to be added on the new portal?

It would be great if user's last password change date is exposed through Microsoft Graph API as it is exposed through MSOL cmdlet.

Provide ability to download an SSL certificate from the key vault for use in other services (e.g. Azure API Management which only accepts uploaded certs).
