Summary
The documentation page for Azure Cloud Services (extended support) WebRole schema exhibits a strong Windows bias. The schema and examples are centered around IIS 7, ASP.NET, and Windows-centric concepts (e.g., certificate stores like 'LocalMachine', startup tasks using CMD files, and .NET assemblies). There are no Linux equivalents or examples provided, nor is there mention of Linux-based web servers or configuration patterns. Windows tools and terminology are used exclusively and referenced first throughout the document.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit notes about Linux support or lack thereof for WebRole, clarifying platform limitations.
  • If Linux support is available, provide equivalent examples using Linux web servers (e.g., Apache, Nginx) and Linux startup scripts (e.g., Bash).
  • Reference Linux certificate management approaches alongside Windows certificate store details.
  • Include guidance or links for deploying web applications on Linux-based roles, if supported.
  • Where possible, use platform-neutral terminology and highlight differences in implementation between Windows and Linux.
