Summary
The documentation provides both Linux and Windows instructions for configuring data sources in Tomcat and JBoss on Azure App Service. However, in the Tomcat server-level configuration section, the Windows instructions are more detailed and prominent, with a heavy reliance on PowerShell scripts and Windows-specific tools and environment variables. The Windows approach is described with step-by-step PowerShell scripting, while the Linux approach uses shell scripts and standard Linux tools, but with less detail and explanation. Additionally, Windows-specific patterns (such as copying Tomcat to a local directory and using %LOCAL_EXPANDED%) are described at length, and PowerShell is the default scripting language for Windows, with no mention of alternatives.
Recommendations
  • Ensure that Linux and Windows instructions are presented with equal detail and clarity, including step-by-step explanations and troubleshooting tips for both platforms.
  • Provide equivalent Linux shell script examples wherever PowerShell scripts are shown for Windows, and vice versa.
  • Avoid presenting Windows instructions or tools (such as PowerShell) before Linux equivalents unless there is a clear reason; consider parallel presentation or Linux-first ordering if usage data supports it.
  • Highlight cross-platform tools and approaches (e.g., Azure CLI, bash scripts, or platform-agnostic configuration methods) where possible.
  • Explicitly mention any differences in capabilities or limitations between Windows and Linux, so users can make informed decisions.
  • Include links to Linux and Windows documentation in all relevant sections to ensure discoverability.
