Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias by referencing traditional Windows patch management tools (WSUS, SCCM) exclusively and first, providing examples and analogies based on Windows workflows, and giving detailed hotpatching coverage only for Windows Server. Linux support is mentioned but lacks equivalent detail, examples, or analogies to common Linux patching tools and patterns. There are no Linux-specific patching scenarios or step-by-step examples, and the Linux auto-update section is brief compared to Windows coverage.
Recommendations
- Include references to traditional Linux patch management tools (e.g., apt, yum, dnf, zypper, cron jobs) alongside Windows tools in the introduction.
- Provide Linux-specific patching workflow examples, such as scheduling updates with cron or using unattended-upgrades/dnf-automatic.
- Offer analogies to Linux-native compliance reporting tools (e.g., log parsing, package manager history) when discussing dashboards.
- Expand the hotpatching section to clarify Linux kernel live patching support (if any) or explicitly state its absence.
- Add step-by-step Linux patching scenarios, including pre/post script examples using bash or Python.
- Ensure parity in detail and examples for both Windows and Linux throughout the documentation.
