Summary
The documentation page exhibits a moderate Windows bias. Windows-centric technologies like IIS are given dedicated configuration examples, and the IIS example is presented before the Linux equivalent (NGINX on AKS). There is no example for configuring Apache or NGINX outside of AKS, nor for Linux VMs running common web servers. The IIS example uses Windows-specific configuration formats (XML/web.config), while Linux equivalents (e.g., Apache .htaccess, NGINX config) are missing. There are no PowerShell command examples, but the overall pattern is to provide more explicit guidance for Windows tools and environments.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit configuration examples for popular Linux web servers such as Apache (using .htaccess or httpd.conf) and NGINX (outside AKS), showing how to filter requests by the X-Azure-FDID header.
  • Present Linux and Windows examples side-by-side or in parallel tabs, rather than listing IIS first.
  • Include guidance for configuring firewall rules on Linux VMs (e.g., using iptables, ufw, or firewalld) to restrict access by IP/service tag.
  • Reference Linux-native tools and patterns (e.g., systemd, SELinux, auditd) where relevant for securing origins.
  • Ensure parity in depth and clarity between Windows and Linux examples, avoiding implicit prioritization of Windows environments.
