Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows, with all examples, features, and configuration patterns centered on Windows technologies (PowerShell, registry, COM, MSI, IIS, GAC, RDP). There are no Linux or cross-platform equivalents provided, and the platform is explicitly Windows-only. Windows tools and patterns are mentioned exclusively and repeatedly, with no parity for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Clearly state at the top that Managed Instance is Windows-only and not suitable for Linux workloads.
  • Provide links or references to equivalent Linux hosting options (e.g., App Service for Linux, container hosting).
  • Where possible, offer guidance for migrating Linux workloads or suggest alternatives for Linux users.
  • Ensure that comparison sections (e.g., 'Choosing the Right Hosting Option') highlight Linux options with equal detail and visibility.
  • Add explicit examples or documentation for Linux App Service plans elsewhere and cross-link for discoverability.
