Don't force the use of a hypervisor video adapter when you have an actual GPU or vGPU attached.
We pay $2k a month for an NVIDIA vGPU instance only to have DX Diag force us to a Microsoft Basic Display adapter.
End this.

Support Azure AD domain join for Windows Server 2016
Microsoft should strongly consider implementing support for Azure AD join in future builds of Windows Server 2016. I how a couple of customers that have nearly finished the transition to all cloud and is left with a couple of servers due to legacy software. They are currently left with the option to deploy Azure AD Domain Services for supporting a couple (2-5) servers.

Allow Windows Server to mount BLOB as a disk
Partners like SoftNAS and Nasuni allow you to connect to Azure BLOB storage and share it as a disk. This allows for massive scalability. Unfortunately, these are very expensive solutions when we are just looking for a simple, massively scalable Windows File Server. Please add the ability to mount BLOB (thin provisioned) to a Windows Server VM in Azure and share that capacity. (Either that or enhance Azure Files to more than 5TB and add NTFS permissions).
