Summary
The tutorial demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively using Windows Server as the VM image in the scale set creation steps, with no mention of Linux alternatives. All example values and instructions assume a Windows environment, and there are no Linux-specific notes, examples, or parity checks. The documentation does not provide guidance for users who may wish to deploy Linux-based scale sets, nor does it mention Linux administrator account patterns or OS-specific considerations.
Recommendations
  • Include Linux as an alternative VM image in the scale set creation steps, e.g., Ubuntu, CentOS, etc.
  • Provide guidance on Linux administrator account setup (e.g., SSH key authentication, username conventions).
  • Add notes or examples highlighting differences in configuration or management for Linux-based scale sets.
  • Ensure that all instructions and screenshots are OS-neutral or provide both Windows and Linux variants.
  • Explicitly mention that the tutorial is applicable to both Windows and Linux VM scale sets, and link to relevant Linux documentation.
