Making Azure operation polling intervals more frequent to
detect completions faster (and thus making machine creations
faster).
Reduce one Azure API call for each machine command by caching
the discovered Azure Active Directory tenant ID of the user’s
Azure subscription into a local file. This also makes Azure
driver commands faster.

The new driver uses Azure Resource Manager APIs and offers a lot
more functionality compared to the old Azure driver. It is also
easier to authenticate and does not require user to create and place
certificate files. It only has a single required argument.
This is a breaking change: The new driver cannot work with machines
created with the older Azure driver and vice versa (as the APIs are
entirely different and resources are not shared between old/new azure
APIs).
The new driver addresses many issues about the azure driver reported
so far.
