Summary
The documentation is generally cross-platform and acknowledges Azure's support for Linux and open-source technologies. However, several sections show Windows bias: Windows/PowerShell examples or terminology are presented first or exclusively (e.g., SQL VM TDE mentions Azure PowerShell cmdlets for Windows VMs, IIS diagnostics, and Windows 10-specific features in identity tables). Some features/tools (e.g., Microsoft Antimalware, App Service diagnostics with IIS, BitLocker recovery, and Windows 10 device join) are described with Windows-centric language or examples, while Linux equivalents are not mentioned or are referenced only briefly. In places where both Windows and Linux are supported (e.g., VM backup, disk encryption), Windows is often listed first or described in more detail.
Recommendations
- Ensure that examples and instructions are provided for both Windows and Linux platforms where applicable, especially for VM management, disk encryption, and backup.
- When describing features or tools (e.g., antimalware, diagnostics, identity management), explicitly mention Linux-compatible alternatives or workflows.
- Avoid listing Windows/PowerShell examples or terminology before Linux/Bash unless the feature is truly Windows-only.
- Add parity in diagnostic and troubleshooting sections (e.g., mention Linux logging/diagnostics tools alongside IIS/App Service diagnostics).
- In identity and device management tables, clarify which features are Windows-only and highlight Linux/macOS options where available.
