Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias in its configuration examples. All backend VM setup instructions use Windows Server with IIS and PowerShell commands, with no mention of Linux-based alternatives (e.g., Apache, Nginx) or Linux command-line examples. Windows tools and patterns (PowerShell, IIS) are used exclusively and presented as the default, with no parity for Linux environments. This may alienate users who run Linux workloads on Azure VMware Solution.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux-based backend examples (e.g., Ubuntu/CentOS VMs running Apache or Nginx) alongside Windows examples.
  • Provide equivalent Linux shell commands for web server setup (e.g., apt/yum install apache2/nginx, echo to index.html).
  • Explicitly mention that both Windows and Linux VMs are supported as backend pools, and link to relevant Linux documentation.
  • Balance screenshots and walkthroughs to show both Windows and Linux server configuration in VMware vSphere Client.
  • Where PowerShell is used, offer Bash/shell alternatives for Linux users.
