Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a bias towards Windows and PowerShell-centric automation. PowerShell and DSC (Desired State Configuration) are repeatedly emphasized as the primary or default automation and configuration technologies, with Linux support mentioned only in general terms or as an afterthought. Examples, modules, and galleries focus on PowerShell, and there is a lack of concrete Linux-specific examples or equivalent tooling references. Windows tools and scenarios (e.g., Active Directory, SQL Server, SharePoint) are explicitly named, while Linux-specific tools, patterns, or use cases are not highlighted.
Recommendations:
- Provide Linux-specific examples and scenarios alongside Windows ones, such as managing Linux services, using Bash or Python runbooks for Linux tasks, and integrating with Linux-native tools (e.g., systemd, cron, logrotate).
- Mention Linux configuration management tools or equivalents (e.g., Ansible, Chef, native Linux DSC support) where PowerShell DSC is discussed.
- Ensure that references to modules, galleries, and shared resources include Python and Bash examples, and highlight any Linux-specific modules or packages available.
- Balance scenario descriptions by including Linux workloads and open-source technologies (e.g., Apache, NGINX, MySQL, PostgreSQL) in addition to Windows-centric ones.
- Where Windows tools or patterns are mentioned (e.g., PowerShell Gallery, Active Directory), provide Linux equivalents or alternatives.
- Explicitly state the parity or differences in feature support between Windows and Linux for Azure Automation, and link to Linux-specific guidance where available.
