Summary
The documentation is heavily Windows-centric: all configuration examples use PowerShell scripts (Install.ps1), only Windows installers (MSI), registry keys, and Windows-specific features (IIS, ACLs, RDP) are discussed. No Linux/macOS equivalents, examples, or instructions are provided. The FAQ and prerequisites confirm that Managed Instance is Windows Server 2022 only, and all customization is via Windows tools and patterns.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly state that Managed Instance is Windows-only at the top of the page.
  • If Linux support is planned, provide equivalent instructions and examples for Linux-based managed instances (e.g., Bash scripts, Linux storage mounts, Linux configuration patterns).
  • For cross-platform parity, link to Linux App Service documentation where relevant.
  • Clarify in each section that features like registry keys, Install.ps1, and RDP are not applicable to Linux.
  • Consider adding a comparison table showing which features are Windows-only and which are cross-platform.
