Servers will be able to join a domain dynamically, passing any required information to the DomainController as they register themselves. The name info would have to come from the command line. So this would mean forcing whatever tool is spinning up new instances on the cloud to generate and pass a synthetic name. TBH, having our own code generate a synthetic name (e.g. a UUID) in such a case seems reasonable.
Even better would be to use a name already present and available to the instance. If for example, the virtual host in question has a predictable host name, then our current solution would continue to work.
