Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias by referencing Windows Server and its licensing benefits before Linux equivalents, focusing on Windows-specific cost optimization features, and omitting Linux-specific examples or troubleshooting details. The 'Azure Hybrid Benefit' section mentions Windows Server licenses first, with Linux (RHEL/SLES) as a secondary note. The 'Supportability' section highlights Windows Server version distribution, but does not mention Linux distributions. No Linux-specific assessment examples, screenshots, or troubleshooting are provided.
Recommendations
  • Include explicit examples and screenshots for assessing Linux VMs (e.g., Ubuntu, CentOS, RHEL, SLES) alongside Windows VMs.
  • Add troubleshooting steps and supportability details for common Linux distributions, not just Windows Server.
  • Present Azure Hybrid Benefit information for Windows and Linux equally, with parallel explanations and links.
  • Ensure cost estimation and readiness review sections mention Linux licensing/subscription scenarios (e.g., bring-your-own subscription for RHEL/SLES, Ubuntu support).
  • In the Supportability section, show OS license support status and version distribution for both Windows and Linux VMs.
  • Where possible, avoid listing Windows tools, features, or options before Linux equivalents; present them side-by-side.
