Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows tools and patterns (such as PowerShell and SMB) are mentioned before their Linux equivalents, and scripting examples reference Azure PowerShell and CLI together, but PowerShell is listed first throughout. The SMB protocol (Windows-centric) is described in detail, with NFS (Linux-centric) mentioned secondarily. There are no explicit Linux shell or scripting examples, nor are Linux-specific tools or workflows highlighted. The documentation references mounting file shares on Windows, Linux, and macOS, but examples and instructions are not provided for Linux. The tools section lists PowerShell first, and AzCopy and Storage Explorer are described as cross-platform, but no Linux command-line examples are given.
Recommendations
  • Provide explicit Linux shell (bash) examples alongside PowerShell, especially for common tasks such as mounting shares, scripting with Azure CLI, and data transfer.
  • List Azure CLI before PowerShell when describing cross-platform scripting, as CLI is natively cross-platform.
  • Offer Linux-specific instructions for mounting Azure Files (e.g., using mount.cifs or mount.nfs), including sample commands.
  • Highlight Linux-compatible tools and workflows, such as AzCopy usage in bash, and provide sample commands.
  • Ensure protocol documentation (SMB/NFS) gives equal detail and prominence to Linux/NFS scenarios.
  • Where authentication and identity integration are discussed, include Linux Active Directory integration and Kerberos instructions.
