It's hard to create pre-aggregated counters in table storage when using multiple workers. For example, a page hit counter will have wrong counts if incremented by pulling work from a queue and updating an entity representing the page using multiple workers.

ACS returning emailaddress claim for Windows Live ID would be a huge advantage for developers, only returning nameidentifier always requires additional steps. If the user uses his email address for auth why not returning, at least, the email address used?

A kind of pre paid service. On forehand you pay for the amount of CPU cycles, instances etc. When the limit is reached the services are stopped.

This would save a lot of time for users that manage multiple subscriptions as it can take a very long time to upload images. This is already supported in Amazon AWS. It would be great if you could share VM images across regions as well.

The container name on azure storage need to have at least 3 characters.

Currently i have a javascript file which is used on houndreds of differents sites which link looks like that:

domain.com/v1/script.js

I am not able to move it to azure storage, as i cannot create container named v1.

It is also not possible to use root container as you cannot use / in blob name in root container.

The resolution would be to allow shorter cotnainer names - even 1 character.

Min 3 character name seems to be somehow strange constraint.

Create a plugin for IIS7 that would monitor your existing ASP.NET web app and show approximatly how much it would cost to run the same app on Azure under the same load and greater loads.

Allow SSL for custom CDN domain names.

Enable newer features like projection in storage emulator.

storage emulator MaxProtocolVersion of the data service is set to DataServiceProtocolVersion.V1 i believe that it needs to be set to DataServiceProtocolVersion.V2 going off the error logs in development storage

Public IPv4 addresses are running out soon. In some developed markets IPv6 is starting to get common. Add the option to have public facing IPv6 addresses as a VIP.

We are software development companies in Vietnam and Vietnamese clients have the large demand to use Azure hosting service.

Please enlarge your service for Vietnamese market.

Provide us detailed (realtime) usage statistics about consumption like amazon and google do

The monthly bill is just not sufficient enough

In shared or reserved mode we need:
- Caching!!
- Advanced Diagnostics
- Ability to run Startup scripts (and PowerShell to configure sites, for example to never go idle, which is a must have)

Currently to make second level domain like domain.com work with azure is to use your dns provider name services to create root redirection of your domain to your cloudapp. It is not possible to manage the domain on my external namesrvers as it is not legal according to dns specification to create CNAME record for second level domain. On Windows 2008 it is not even possible to create such record when you have a MX record created for the same zone.

Please give another way of handling second level domains with azure.

I would like to register 2 or more custom domains to point to 1 storage account.

For example, foo.com, bar.com both point to blob.etc.windows.net

I commit to Git (or SVN, or Merc, et al), if the build succeeds, it is autmomagically deployed to my cloud.

Blob defined as CDN may need to send Access-Control-Allow-Origin header.

It would be useful to have a full Hosted DNS as a service inside of azure.
