Summary
The documentation exclusively deploys Windows Server virtual machines as test workloads and does not mention or provide examples for Linux VM deployment. All VM-related Terraform resources and password generation steps are specific to Windows, with no Linux equivalents or parity. The examples and walkthroughs do not address Linux scenarios, which may alienate users seeking cross-platform guidance.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux VM deployment examples alongside Windows VM examples using azurerm_linux_virtual_machine.
  • Include instructions for generating Linux SSH keys and configuring Linux VM authentication.
  • Provide parity in password/credential generation for Linux VMs (e.g., random SSH key resource).
  • Explicitly mention that the sample can be adapted for Linux workloads and link to relevant Linux VM documentation.
  • Consider alternating or balancing Windows and Linux examples throughout the guide to avoid platform bias.
