Summary
The documentation page demonstrates several forms of Windows bias. Windows and Windows-specific tools (such as PowerShell and IIS) are mentioned before or instead of Linux equivalents in multiple sections. Examples and instructions for features like SQL VM TDE and App Service diagnostics reference Windows-centric tools (PowerShell, IIS) without Linux alternatives. There is a lack of parity in examples and tool recommendations for Linux users, and Windows terminology and features (e.g., BitLocker, Windows 10 device management) are highlighted more prominently than Linux equivalents.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-specific examples and instructions alongside Windows ones, especially for tasks like enabling Azure Key Vault integration for SQL VMs, configuring diagnostics, and disk encryption.
  • Include references to Linux-native tools (e.g., Bash, systemd, journald, auditd) where Windows tools (PowerShell, IIS) are mentioned.
  • Ensure parity in feature descriptions for both Windows and Linux, such as device management, disk encryption, and identity integration.
  • Explicitly mention support for Linux in all relevant sections, and provide links to Linux documentation where available.
  • Avoid listing Windows features or tools first unless there is a technical reason; alternate ordering or group by OS where possible.
