automatic restart when server goes down
I think it's essential that the servers are fixed so that if they go down they automatically restart the server especially on digital ocean + vultr
A few times I've had the site receive a traffic spike out of the ordinary and it pulled my sites down until I manually rebooted it. It should be automatic.

Allow Server Master Credentials to access all MySQL databases.
Having a single user account that can access all the databases under a given server would simplify administration. The Server Master Credentials seems like a logical choice.
Currently I open an SSH tunnel for database access and it would be great if the same tunnel credentials could also connect to the databases.

Add more file types on database import
I found myself in a position where I had a huge table locally and wanted to import it on my database.
CSV file ~30mb
SQL file ~200mbUnfortunately, we can only import tables from sql files. Would love to see different file types like CSV, JSON, XML

Exclude HTML from Nginx static cache
Currently HTML is included in the static cache of nginx.
This results in pushing an expires 30 days header on html content request and ignoring htaccess directives.This is particulary dangerous, since there is no way to purge that cache unless the expiration on nginx is set to 0 for all assets.

Allow changing Varnish config file (VCL) after application setup
A dropdown with options next to the "Varnish Toggle" button allowing us to choose which VCL is configured with this application would allow us flexibility to change our stack without having to create a whole new application and reconfigure ours.

Choose PHP Version for every Application (not for Server)
It should be possible to choose different php versions on a single server. This is possible in most shared hosting environments and is a big advantage.
It is expensive to create a new server only because you need for example an old php version for a specific application which is not compatible.390 votes -
Allow server timezone settings to automatically adjust for BST (summer time change)
In Ireland and the Uk the clock changes twice a year to adjust for BST which becomes GMT+1 this means the server timezone for all apps running London/Dublin location become inaccurate by an hour.
So it would be better if server time zone could match site application time zone (eg Drupal timezone) or else if server timezone can automatically adjust for BST changes.

Send Emails When Cron Job Fails To Run
The only way to tell if a cron job has failed is to log in to the console and type mail.
It would be great if these where emailed much like the DenyHosts Messages are.
