Summary
The documentation demonstrates a clear Windows bias, especially in the VM creation and IIS installation sections. Only Windows Server is used as the VM image, and all instructions for web server setup use Windows PowerShell commands. There are no examples or guidance for deploying Linux VMs or installing/configuring a web server (such as Apache or Nginx) on Linux. The use of Windows-specific tools and patterns (PowerShell, IIS) is exclusive, and Linux alternatives are neither mentioned nor provided.
Recommendations
  • Provide parallel instructions for creating Linux VMs (e.g., Ubuntu or CentOS) in the backend pool.
  • Include Linux-specific steps for installing a web server (e.g., Apache or Nginx) using Bash commands.
  • Offer both Windows and Linux examples for configuring and testing the load balancer.
  • Explicitly mention that either Windows or Linux VMs can be used, and link to relevant documentation for both platforms.
  • Where PowerShell is used, provide equivalent Bash or shell commands for Linux users.
