Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows PowerShell and PowerShell DSC, with all examples and references tailored to Windows environments. There is no mention of Linux/macOS equivalents or guidance for non-Windows users, despite Azure Automation DSC supporting Linux nodes. References and next steps are exclusively Windows/PowerShell-centric, and Linux onboarding is only briefly mentioned in a link.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit examples and steps for configuring data at scale for Linux/macOS nodes using Azure Automation DSC.
  • Include references to Linux DSC resources and documentation, such as onboarding Linux machines and using cross-platform DSC modules.
  • Clarify which steps or tools are Windows-only and provide Linux alternatives where possible.
  • Balance the next steps section with links to Linux DSC documentation and resources.
