Summary
The documentation page for Azure Automation updates demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. PowerShell is consistently featured as the primary automation language, with frequent announcements about new PowerShell versions and capabilities, often before or with more detail than Python equivalents. Windows-centric tools and modules (e.g., AzureRM, Az PowerShell) are referenced more often than Linux-specific alternatives. While Linux support is mentioned (especially for Hybrid Runbook Workers), examples, tooling, and migration guidance tend to prioritize Windows and PowerShell. There are few explicit Linux shell (bash, sh) or Linux-native automation examples, and Windows/PowerShell terminology is used as the default.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent Linux shell (bash/sh) and Python examples alongside PowerShell in feature announcements and migration guides.
- Explicitly mention Linux support and parity when introducing new features, especially for Hybrid Runbook Workers and runtime environments.
- Highlight Linux-native tools and modules where applicable, and provide links to Linux-specific documentation or usage patterns.
- Ensure that migration and retirement notices include Linux-focused guidance and examples, not just Windows/PowerShell.
- Balance the order of presentation so that Linux and Windows are given equal prominence in lists, examples, and feature rollouts.
