Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias primarily in the 'Next steps' section, where the quickstart example references creating VMs with a custom IIS extension installed—a Windows-centric web server—without mentioning Linux alternatives (such as Apache or Nginx). No Linux-specific examples, tools, or patterns are provided, and the only concrete workload described is Windows-based.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux-based quickstart examples, such as creating VMs with Apache or Nginx installed and load balancing those web apps.
  • Explicitly mention that Azure Load Balancer supports both Windows and Linux backend VMs.
  • Provide parity in walkthroughs and tutorials by including both Windows (IIS) and Linux (Apache/Nginx) scenarios.
  • Avoid referencing only Windows tools or workloads in introductory or example sections; offer Linux equivalents side-by-side.
