Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several areas: Windows technologies (Hyper-V, BitLocker, Windows Firewall) are discussed in greater detail and often before their Linux equivalents; Windows-specific tools and patterns (PowerShell, RDP) are mentioned more frequently and sometimes as the default; examples and instructions for Linux (e.g., disk encryption, VM provisioning) are present but less detailed or appear after Windows instructions; and some sections lack Linux-specific examples or guidance, especially for advanced features and security controls.
Recommendations
- Ensure Linux examples and instructions are provided alongside Windows examples, with equal detail and prominence.
- When describing Azure features or security controls, mention Linux-compatible tools and technologies (e.g., SSH, iptables, SELinux, DM-Crypt) before or alongside Windows equivalents.
- Avoid defaulting to Windows terminology (e.g., 'Windows Firewall', 'PowerShell') when cross-platform alternatives exist; use generic or platform-neutral terms where possible.
- Provide explicit Linux command-line examples (e.g., Azure CLI, bash scripts) in addition to PowerShell, especially in sections about VM provisioning, disk encryption, and network configuration.
- Clarify parity and limitations between Windows and Linux for all features, especially in security, encryption, and management tooling.
- Review and update references to third-party tools and documentation to include Linux-focused solutions and best practices.
