Summary
The documentation page exhibits a strong Windows bias. All command-line examples use PowerShell, and instructions for certificate creation, IIS installation, and VM scale set configuration are tailored exclusively for Windows environments. The VM scale set defaults to Windows Server, and there are no equivalent Linux instructions or examples provided. Windows tools and patterns (e.g., New-SelfSignedCertificate, Export-PfxCertificate, IIS installation via PowerShell) are mentioned without Linux alternatives.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux examples for certificate creation (e.g., using OpenSSL) and exporting certificates.
  • Include instructions for deploying a Linux-based VM scale set (e.g., Ubuntu) and configuring a web server such as Apache or Nginx.
  • Offer Bash/Azure CLI command alternatives alongside PowerShell commands.
  • Clarify that both Windows and Linux backend pools are supported, and link to relevant Linux documentation.
  • Demonstrate how to install and configure a web server on Linux VMs using Custom Script Extension or cloud-init.
