Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a mild Windows bias. In the section on limiting scale-out for Consumption/Premium plans, both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples are provided, but PowerShell is given equal prominence, which is a Windows-centric tool. Additionally, in the scale-in behaviors section, a specific note is made for 'apps running on Windows in a Consumption plan,' with no equivalent mention for Linux. There are no Linux-specific examples, nor are Linux tools (such as Bash scripts or Linux-specific configuration notes) referenced. All command-line examples use Azure CLI, which is cross-platform, but PowerShell is highlighted as an alternative, reinforcing Windows familiarity.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Linux/Bash examples alongside PowerShell, especially in sections where configuration via command line is shown.
  • Clarify platform-specific behaviors for both Windows and Linux (e.g., scale-in behaviors), not just Windows.
  • If platform differences exist (such as drain mode defaults), document them for Linux as well.
  • Consider mentioning cross-platform tools first (Azure CLI) and move PowerShell examples to a secondary position or a dedicated tab for Windows users.
  • Where possible, include notes or examples for Linux users, such as using environment variables, file paths, or shell scripting relevant to Linux.
