Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All command-line examples use Azure PowerShell, with no mention of Azure CLI or Bash alternatives. The VM creation walkthrough exclusively uses Windows Server 2019, and the backend verification relies on installing IIS (a Windows web server) via PowerShell. There are no examples or instructions for deploying Linux VMs, using Linux-native tools (such as Apache or Nginx), or performing equivalent operations with Linux shell commands. Windows tooling and patterns are presented exclusively and before any Linux alternatives (which are entirely missing).
Recommendations
  • Provide Azure CLI and/or Bash examples alongside Azure PowerShell commands, especially for preview registration and resource management.
  • Include instructions for creating Linux-based backend VMs (e.g., Ubuntu or CentOS) and installing a Linux web server (such as Apache or Nginx) for testing.
  • Offer Linux shell commands for backend server setup and verification, in addition to Windows PowerShell/IIS steps.
  • Explicitly mention that Application Gateway supports both Windows and Linux backend pools, and provide parity in documentation examples.
  • Add a section comparing Windows and Linux deployment patterns, highlighting any differences or considerations.
