Summary
The documentation page shows a moderate Windows bias. Windows-specific features (such as customizing Windows VM guest OS settings and Windows Server Management) are highlighted, and Windows tools (PowerShell, System Center Configuration Manager, Group Policy) are mentioned explicitly for agent installation at scale, while Linux equivalents are either absent or mentioned later. There is a lack of parity in examples and tooling for Linux, with only a brief mention of SSH-based Linux agent installation and Ansible playbook, but no details or Linux-first examples.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-specific examples and tooling for agent installation at scale (e.g., shell scripts, cloud-init, Linux-native automation tools) alongside Windows tools.
  • Ensure that Linux features (such as customizing Linux VM guest OS settings) are mentioned with equal prominence and detail as Windows features.
  • Include Linux equivalents for Windows management features (e.g., cost benefits, update management) where applicable.
  • Add parity in documentation for Linux-focused orchestration and configuration management tools (e.g., Chef, Puppet) if supported.
  • Where Windows tools are listed, explicitly mention Linux alternatives in the same context and order.
