Summary
The documentation page demonstrates mild Windows bias. Windows-specific details (such as Windows VM metering and Windows software costs) are mentioned before Linux equivalents, and there is a focus on Windows licensing and Azure Hybrid Benefit for Windows and SQL workloads. There are no explicit Linux or open-source tooling examples, nor is there parity in discussing Linux-specific scenarios or licensing. The documentation does not provide examples or guidance for Linux users, nor does it mention Linux-specific considerations in savings plans beyond a brief reference to Linux meters.
Recommendations
  • Include explicit examples or scenarios for Linux VMs, such as how savings plans apply to popular Linux distributions and workloads.
  • Discuss Linux licensing and cost considerations, even if only to clarify that there are no additional software costs for Linux VMs.
  • Balance the order of presentation: mention Linux and Windows meters together, or provide a comparative table.
  • Reference open-source or Linux-native management tools (e.g., Azure CLI, Bash scripting) alongside or before Windows tools.
  • Add guidance for Linux users on how to optimize savings plan usage, including any unique considerations for Linux workloads.
