Windows Server DFSR and File Replication Survey

JR_Tayschrenn I spend a ton of time and energy investing in on-prem products, as does my team (you will see this in SMB, File Server, Storage Migration Service, Storage Replica, etc. that I was the PM for over the past few years). The point of this survey was about me building a case for funding a modern replacement for DFSR, for instance, which has substantial architectural issues at this point in the modern network and storage environment after releasing in 2005. But I'm not given the resources to maintain everything forever or control of the budgets to do so, and when there are workarounds, it hurts the case for the limited sustainability team resources to make more substantial fixes. I know it's frustrating to hear - as someone who wants all of their products to be excellent, it's extremely frustrating for me personally (imagine owning an entire feature but no longer having developers) - but I'm not here to sugarcoat things. I tried to have that IE issue fixed years ago, I fought for it, I lost. Sometimes I fight and win. I'm sure you have many similar experiences within your role.
