Summary
The documentation mentions Windows virtual machines and Windows-specific metering before Linux, and discusses Windows software costs and Azure Hybrid Benefit (which is Windows-centric) in multiple places. While Linux is referenced, Windows examples and considerations are presented first and in more detail, and there are no Linux-specific examples or guidance.
Recommendations
  • Present Linux and Windows examples side-by-side when discussing VM metering and costs.
  • Explicitly clarify that the compute meter applies equally to Linux and Windows, and detail any differences in licensing or cost structure for Linux VMs.
  • Add a section or examples for Linux-specific scenarios, such as how savings plans apply to Linux VMs and any relevant cost considerations.
  • Mention open-source licensing or cost implications for Linux VMs, if any, to balance the focus on Windows licensing.
  • Avoid presenting Windows considerations before Linux unless there is a technical reason.
