Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias by exclusively deploying Windows Server virtual machines in the example template, mentioning Windows VMs as the only option for the jump box and server. There are no references to Linux VM deployment, nor are Linux-specific cleanup instructions (such as Azure CLI or Bash) provided. The cleanup section only provides a PowerShell command, with no Linux or cross-platform alternatives.
Recommendations
  • Include examples and instructions for deploying Linux virtual machines alongside or instead of Windows Server VMs in the ARM template.
  • Provide cleanup instructions using Azure CLI (az group delete) and Bash, in addition to PowerShell, to ensure cross-platform parity.
  • Mention both Windows and Linux options when describing the jump box and server VM roles.
  • Add notes or links to documentation for Linux VM configuration and management in Azure.
  • Review and update template parameters to allow users to select the OS type (Windows or Linux) for the deployed VMs.
