Summary
The documentation page for Azure Cloud Services (extended support) WorkerRole schema exhibits a Windows bias. It references Windows-specific concepts such as certificate stores (CurrentUser, LocalMachine, store names like My, Root, etc.), .NET Framework entry points, CMD/batch files for startup tasks, and environment variables in Windows style (e.g., %ROLEROOT%). There are no examples or guidance for Linux equivalents, and Windows terminology and patterns are presented exclusively and/or first throughout the document.
Recommendations
- Add explicit guidance and examples for Linux-based WorkerRoles, including how certificate management, environment variables, and startup tasks are handled in Linux environments.
- Document Linux equivalents for certificate stores, such as file-based PEM storage or OS-specific certificate locations.
- Include examples of startup tasks using shell scripts (e.g., .sh files) and note differences in encoding and execution context for Linux.
- Clarify how environment variables and paths (e.g., %ROLEROOT%) are represented in Linux (e.g., $ROLEROOT or other conventions).
- Provide parity for .NET and non-.NET entry points, including support for Linux-native runtimes and frameworks.
- Where Windows-specific terminology is used, add Linux alternatives or a cross-platform note.
