We are reviewing this feature request and hope to make progress on it later this year (Fall or later). Will make another update then.

Thank you. We will examine the experience of duplicate sign ups across Identity providers. Would performing this check by using the email address be sufficient?

BTW, Linking multiple provider accounts to one user is in our roadmap and we’ve already achieved it in preview…

We look forward to your feedback

Thanks for the suggestion. We recognise the strategic importance of DNSSEC and it is a key feature on our long-term backlog.

DNSSEC represents a very large engineering investment, and hence we have to prioritize carefully vs other work. The most customer data we can get supporting the need for DNSSEC support, the better prioritization decisions we can make. We appreciate your votes and your comments.

Folks,

Thanks for the questions and suggestions. And apologies for not sharing any update on this thread for so long. We’ve been working on this problem and have announced changes on our official team blog (see here: https://cloudblogs.microsoft.com/enterprisemobility/2016/09/15/cleaning-up-the-azure-ad-and-microsoft-account-overlap/).

First, we are acutely aware of the UX pain this is causing and we are sorry for this. We are trying to undo a decade and a half of systems divergence. There are literally hundreds of different engineering teams across Microsoft involved in this effort. So this is taking time.

Second, we can’t easily “merge” two accounts, or allow IT to “take over” personal Microsoft accounts. There are two main hurdles: (1) The terms of service are fundamentally different for the two account types and (2) they are based on different technologies with different stacks (different identifiers, SDKs, token formats, etc.). We’re working to converge the two stacks but again this takes time. There are details of this in the blog post linked above.

Third, in the past year we’ve worked with 70+ teams across Microsoft that operate business services but only supported MSA for historical reason. Our goal is for all of these apps to support Azure AD (work accounts) as well. As of Nov 2017, we’re about half way there. Dev Center and MSDN subscriptions (now called Visual Studio subscriptions) are example of apps that now support Azure AD. Microsoft Payment Central and Invoicing are a few weeks away. Volume Licensing and many others are in progress and a couple months away.

The best recommendations we can provide right now are:
1) Use your work account (in Azure AD) to access any work application that supports it.
2) If you had created a personal Microsoft account to access Microsoft business apps, and no longer need it, close the account. Or rename it (which means chancing the user id) to avoid confusion.

Please follow our team blog for future updates on this problem.

Sorry for the confusion, there was a regression during deployment in the Large Object support that caused a rollback of the functionality. We are actively working on getting a fix.

unplanned · AdminAzure Cosmos DB Team (Admin, Microsoft Azure) responded

Please not that since this item was created, we added support for Take() in the LINQ provider. So you can change the query to use Take(1).AsEnumerable().SingleOrDefault().

We are planning to extend the LINQ provider to support SingleOrDefault and other operators. This requires some additional SQL grammar support in the Azure Cosmos DB grammar.

This is very good feedback. Today we have separate datasources for what your quotas are (e.g. network, memory), and the metrics that we emit. Ideally, we could bring those two points together to give you a percentage of those metrics.

Also, once these are exposed, they will automatically be available for autoscale — already today you can use any exposed metric for scaling.
