Summary
The documentation demonstrates a notable Windows bias: the deployed virtual machines are configured with IIS (Internet Information Server), a Windows-only web server, and the verification step explicitly references the default IIS Windows Server web page. There are no examples or instructions for deploying or verifying a Linux-based web server (such as Apache or Nginx). The template and tutorial steps do not mention Linux options or provide parity for Linux users.
Recommendations
- Provide alternative instructions and template parameters for deploying Linux virtual machines (e.g., Ubuntu) with a common Linux web server (Apache or Nginx).
- Include screenshots and verification steps for Linux-based web pages, not just IIS.
- Explicitly mention that the template can be adapted for Linux workloads and provide example ARM template snippets for Linux VM configuration.
- Ensure that both Windows and Linux options are presented equally in the tutorial, including in the verification and clean-up steps.
