Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows and Microsoft-centric tools (PowerShell, Windows Events, Defender, Azure Monitor Agent) are mentioned frequently and often before Linux alternatives. Some sections, such as monitoring agent health, explicitly call out Windows-only solutions, while Linux is referenced as an afterthought. PowerShell is presented as the default automation interface for APIs, with no mention of Bash, Python, or Linux-native CLI usage. Examples and references to Linux-specific patterns, tools, or troubleshooting are sparse or missing.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux/macOS-specific examples alongside Windows ones, especially for automation (e.g., Bash, Python, or Azure CLI usage).
  • Mention Linux tools and connectors (Syslog, Sysmon for Linux, auditd, etc.) equally and early in relevant sections.
  • Clarify which features or monitoring solutions are cross-platform and which are Windows-only; offer Linux alternatives where possible.
  • Include troubleshooting and operational guidance for Linux/macOS environments, not just Windows.
  • Highlight Linux/macOS support in agent health, data collection, and log management sections.
  • Add parity in documentation for PowerShell-heavy sections by showing equivalent Linux-native command-line or scripting approaches.
