To me as a developer that is pretty cool, because now I can actually create a development machine in the cloud, install hyper-v on it and run my mobile emulators or even use docker for Windows, which is dependent on Hyper-V. Why is that interesting you might ask? Well, it is interesting because now it is possible to run hyper visors inside an Azure VM. Last week Microsoft finally released their new Azure Virtual Machine series Dv3 and Ev3, besides being based on the latest Intel hardware, these machine are also running Windows Server 2016 as the host OS which supports nested virtualization.
