Summary
The documentation page primarily describes deployment using the Azure portal, which is cross-platform. However, in the 'Related content' section, alternative deployment methods are listed as Azure PowerShell, ARM template, and Visual Studio. PowerShell and Visual Studio are Windows-centric tools, and PowerShell is mentioned before ARM templates (which are platform-neutral). There is no mention of Linux-native tools (such as Azure CLI or Bash scripting), nor are Linux-specific examples provided. This ordering and omission suggest a bias towards Windows tooling and workflows.
Recommendations
  • Add references and examples for deploying Cloud Services (extended support) using Azure CLI, which is cross-platform and widely used on Linux.
  • Ensure that Linux-native tools (such as Bash scripts or cloud-init) are mentioned alongside or before Windows-centric tools in alternative deployment methods.
  • Provide explicit examples or links for Linux users, such as how to upload packages from Linux environments or automate deployments using Linux shells.
  • Review the ordering of alternative deployment methods to avoid prioritizing Windows tools unless there is a technical reason.
