Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a mild Windows bias, primarily by listing Azure PowerShell as a first-class method for backup and restore operations alongside Azure CLI and the Azure portal. Azure PowerShell is a Windows-centric tool, and its inclusion (and placement before ARM/Bicep/Terraform) suggests a preference for Windows tooling. However, the documentation does not provide command-line examples, and the main technical requirements and supported scenarios focus on Linux-based node pools, which is positive for Linux parity. Still, the 'Next steps' section lists Azure PowerShell before ARM/Bicep/Terraform, and the page references Azure CLI and PowerShell as the main automation tools, which may reinforce a Windows-first perception.
Recommendations
  • Ensure that all example commands and automation instructions are provided for both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell, with CLI (cross-platform) examples listed first.
  • Explicitly state that Azure CLI is cross-platform and can be used on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
  • Where possible, provide Bash shell examples for scripting and automation, not just PowerShell.
  • In the 'Next steps' section, list Azure CLI before Azure PowerShell, and consider grouping cross-platform tools (CLI, ARM, Bicep, Terraform) before Windows-centric tools.
  • Clarify that PowerShell is available cross-platform, but that Azure CLI is the primary tool for Linux users.
  • If referencing PowerShell, provide equivalent Bash/CLI examples or links for Linux users.
