Azure Policy - Support for RegEx in Match Conditions
Right now, the "Match" and "notMatch" conditions only support # for digit placeholders and ? for letters. This is okay, but it would be much more useful to support regex expressions. This would needed for define complex naming policies and tagging standards.

make azure available in Cambodia.
you should make azure available in Cambodia. I think there are some students or people want to explore and use it.
60 votesWindows Azure is commercially available in the following 84 countries, and this is not one of them. Learn more here: http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/pricing/faq/
We are adding more countries as we can, but in the meantime if you wish to use the service in an unsupported country, you’ll need to use one of several third party providers which front the Azure Subscriptions for organizations in unsupported countries. Just keep in mind that those providers are not MSFT so perform due-diligence to make sure any vendor you select is reputable.
Thanks for understanding.

Make DomainDNSName,NetbiosName & Samaccountname attributes avaialble to public to use AAD Join without AAD Connect
We use okta for synchronizing accounts to Azure AD.
We plan to use AAD Join for our windows10 devices, it works well with AAD Connect(As AAD Connect synchronizes attributes DomainDNSName, NetBIOS name & Onpremisesamaccoutnanme)
Okta could not update these attributes, I want to find a way to update the attributes(by using PowerShell or GraphAPI?).
And also would like to know if there is any possibility to sync MSDS-Keycredentiallink attribute to on-premise without using AAD Connect so that I can use windows hello.

Internal load balancer vnet peering
Currently when you connect 2 VNETS using a global vnet peer you cannot access internal load balancer between the networks. E.g if you have a resource behind a load balancer in vnet1 and you try to connect to the load balancer from vnet2 then you cannot connect.
This causes problems for SQL Server Availability groups running over 2 regions meaning you need an internal load balancer in each region. If you then have a web farm spread over the 2 regions only web servers within the region hosting the listener address can connect to the listener. This basically removes one…

Recovery Service Vault, Backup storage Replication in ARM
Currently there is no way to sepcify which storage replication is wanted when you create a Recovery Services Vault via ARM templates.
The default when spinning up a vault is GRS, and the only way to change it is to log into the portal and choose LRS before any backups have been applied.
The fact that the type of storage replication cannot be changed after a backup has been set does not help the situation.
This makes automating infrastrucutre builds painful as I have to login and change the setting in the portal before i am able to continue adding…

Azure Active Directory B2C: Don't charge for token refresh
Azure AD B2C is great and the pricing too, except for the fact, that token refreshs carried out by the application (as opposed to being carried out by the user) are charged separately. An application that keeps a logical connection to the server while in the background, might carry out quite many token refreshs over time. A regular frequency of one refresh per hour leads to ~700 refreshs per month. Assuming 1.000.000 users, this sums up to ~500.000$/month. This exceeds the capacity of start-ups like ours by a factor of 1000 (!). Although AD B2C would be the perfect fit…

Azure Revered Instances - Applying reservation to single or multiple VMs
Azure Revered Instances - Applying reservation to single or multiple VMs.
Looks like someone in Azure product team really missed ball on this. Basic things like selecting a VM to apply reservation is not even properly setup or documented. This shows poor work effort provided by the group worked on it.

Better pricing structure for API Management
We currently use 4 instances of APIM for duplicating our environments (Dev/UAT/Pre Prod and Production)
We went with APIM as a solution for fronting some azure services and some internal services. Due to the VPN access only being available on Premium we are paying for over 32 Millions calls a day when we will barely generate a 1 Million. So we have 4 Premium APIM instances costing us £6000 a month purely for the VPN access. Forcing us to pay for a level we do not require just for a feature of the environment, it would be better if the…

Whitelist all Microsoft services in Storage account Firewall
Whitelist all Microsoft services including Azure Data Factory when the "Firewall and Virtual Network" option is enabled on Storage account and "Allow trusted Microsoft services to access this storage account" option is selected.
Similar option is already available on Azure Data Lake store, where we can access Data Lake from Data Factory pipelines after the firewall option is enabled.

Invoices for Azure Add-On customers (external services)
Currently, invoices are not prepared for payments of the Azure Add-On customers (external services) (i.e. SendGrid).
This causes problems in our accounting. Could you make them available?

For Virtual machines, allow configurable outbound TCP timeout.
Currently you can only configure the inbound tcp timout. The default outbound timeout for TCP connections is 4 minutes and is non configurable/by design. It's important that users have the ability to change this, perhaps up to a value of 30 which is similar to the inbound properties.

Need a function to change a format for X-Forwarded-For in Application Gateway.
Some web server uses the X-Forwarded-For header as only IP address format, not IP address:Port.
So we would like to choice the format for X-Forwarded-For header by web server requirement.
For example, "Require ip" in RemoteIPHeader directive on Apache should be IP address format.

azure zones dns-forwarder
Please extend DNS zones solution to add forwarding & client features to implement the following in PaaS instead of with VMs:
https://github.com/Azure/azure-quickstart-templates/tree/master/301-dns-forwarderUse case: use azure dns to forward dns queries to 168.63.129.16 & between subnets. Enterprise DNS would forward to Azure DNS. VNET has Azure-provided name resolution (*.internal.cloudapp.net). In this way Enterprise DNS could dynamically learn of a PaaS offering on VNET.

Moving IBM Mainframes to Azure

CoAP support for IoT Hub
The Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP) is a specialized web transfer protocol for use with constrained nodes and constrained networks in the Internet of Things. The protocol is designed for machine-to-machine (M2M) applications such as smart energy and building automation.
It would be helpful if you could support CoAP in IoT Hub. It provides a lightweight REST model messaging which can be used in constrained devices with ease.
COAP also provides stronger security at implementation level and will be a game changer for IoT Hub.

Allow custom code references in Application Insights multi-step webtests
Application Insights on Azure lets me upload a .webtest file to monitor application availability. My application is a REST/JSON service, and so my .webtest references a custom ExtractJSONRule derived from the ExtractionRule base class to pick out and check data from the JSON response. I can upload the .webtest file OK, but of course, without the custom C# code for the ExtractJSONRule, it always fails.
Please provide a mechanism to allow .webtest files which reference one or more custom .cs files for custom ExtractionRule and ValidationRule classes.
