Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by frequently referencing Windows-specific management features, tools, and benefits before or instead of their Linux equivalents. Windows Server management, Extended Security Updates for Windows Server and SQL Server, and PowerShell are highlighted, while Linux-specific guidance and examples are less prominent or missing. Where both Windows and Linux are mentioned, Windows is often listed first or given more detail, and some links and tabs default to Windows content.
Recommendations
  • Ensure parity by providing Linux-specific examples and guidance alongside Windows, especially for automation, agent installation, and management tasks.
  • When referencing tools like PowerShell, also mention Bash, shell scripts, or Linux-native automation tools where applicable.
  • Balance the order of presentation: alternate or randomize listing Windows and Linux, or explicitly state support for both at the outset.
  • Include links and tabs for Linux documentation wherever Windows links are provided (e.g., not just /tabs=windows).
  • Highlight Linux-specific benefits or scenarios, such as Linux VM management, security, and update management, to match the detail given to Windows.
  • Add Linux-focused use cases and callouts in the 'Supported scenarios' and 'Next steps' sections.
