Summary
The documentation page exhibits a strong Windows bias in the VM configuration section. Only Windows PowerShell commands are provided for installing and configuring IIS on the backend VMs, with no mention of Linux alternatives or examples. The instructions and screenshots focus exclusively on Windows tools and workflows, implicitly assuming the use of Windows Server VMs. There is no guidance for users deploying Linux VMs or using Linux-native web servers such as Apache or Nginx.
Recommendations
  • Add parallel instructions for Linux VMs, including steps for connecting via SSH and installing/configuring a web server (e.g., Apache or Nginx) using bash commands.
  • Provide both Windows and Linux code examples for server setup, clearly labeling each for the relevant OS.
  • Include screenshots or terminal output for Linux workflows where appropriate.
  • Explicitly mention that the load balancer works with both Windows and Linux VMs, and link to further documentation for Linux-based deployments.
  • Avoid assuming Windows as the default platform; present OS options up front and allow users to choose their preferred environment.
