Summary
The documentation displays Windows bias by listing Windows Server OS support before Linux, providing more detail for Windows, and referencing Windows tools (e.g., Stop-AzureRmVM, Remove-AzureRmVM) without Linux equivalents. Linux support is limited to a single RHEL version, with Ubuntu deprecated and only manual installation instructions provided. There are no Linux-specific deployment or management examples, and no mention of Linux-native tools or patterns.
Recommendations
  • List Linux and Windows OS support with equal prominence and detail.
  • Expand Linux support to include more distributions (e.g., Ubuntu 20.04+, CentOS, SUSE) and provide tested instructions.
  • Provide Linux-specific deployment and management examples, including CLI commands (e.g., az CLI, systemctl, or cloud-init).
  • Mention Linux-native tools and patterns for VM management (e.g., using SSH, Linux package managers, or cloud-init scripts).
  • Where Windows-specific tools (e.g., PowerShell cmdlets) are referenced, provide equivalent Linux commands or workflows.
