Summary
The documentation page for Azure Automation updates demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways. PowerShell is consistently mentioned as the primary automation language, with frequent updates and new features centered around PowerShell versions and runbooks. Windows-specific tools and modules (e.g., AzureRM, Az PowerShell) are referenced more often and in greater detail than their Linux or cross-platform equivalents. Examples and migration guides typically focus on PowerShell and Windows, with Linux support mentioned only as an add-on or afterthought. There are few, if any, explicit Linux shell (bash) or cross-platform scripting examples, and Windows terminology (such as 'Hybrid Runbook Worker (Windows and Linux)') often lists Windows first.
Recommendations
- Provide equal coverage and examples for Linux environments, including bash and Python scripting, alongside PowerShell.
- When listing supported platforms or features, alternate the order or explicitly mention Linux first in some cases to avoid implicit prioritization.
- Include migration guides and troubleshooting steps that are specific to Linux users, not just Windows/PowerShell.
- Add documentation and examples for Linux-native tools and workflows (e.g., cron, systemd, bash scripts) in the context of Azure Automation.
- Ensure that all new features and updates are described with platform parity, highlighting any differences or special considerations for Linux users.
- Where possible, provide cross-platform code samples (PowerShell, bash, Python) for common automation tasks.
