Summary
The documentation exhibits Windows bias in several ways: Windows is the default or first-mentioned operating system for jumpbox VMs; Active Directory Domain Services (a Windows-centric technology) is a core component; and there is no example or guidance for deploying Linux-based equivalents (e.g., Linux jumpbox, LDAP/FreeIPA for directory services). While some artifact parameters reference Linux VM support, the overall workflow and examples are Windows-centric, and Linux alternatives are not described or prioritized.
Recommendations
  • Provide explicit examples and guidance for deploying Linux jumpbox VMs, including parameter values and recommended configurations.
  • Include instructions or options for using Linux-based directory services (such as LDAP or FreeIPA) as alternatives to Active Directory Domain Services.
  • Ensure that artifact parameters and deployment steps equally highlight both Windows and Linux options, rather than defaulting to Windows.
  • Add cross-platform PowerShell and Bash/CLI examples for blueprint deployment and management.
  • Clarify which steps or components are platform-agnostic and which are Windows-specific, and provide Linux equivalents where possible.
