Summary
The documentation generally covers both Windows and Linux VMs, but there are several instances where Windows-specific tools, terminology, and examples are presented first or exclusively. PowerShell cmdlets (e.g., Add-AzKeyVaultKey) are referenced without Linux CLI equivalents, and some backup/snapshot links point to Windows-specific pages. Antimalware recommendations include Windows Defender and System Center Endpoint Protection, which are Windows-only, with less emphasis on Linux alternatives. Monitoring and diagnostics sections mention Windows-focused extensions and tools before Linux options. While Linux is acknowledged, examples and actionable steps are often Windows-centric or lack Linux parity.
Recommendations
  • Provide CLI/bash equivalents for PowerShell cmdlets, especially for key management and encryption operations.
  • Include Linux-specific antimalware solutions and examples alongside Windows Defender/System Center Endpoint Protection.
  • Ensure backup and snapshot instructions link to both Windows and Linux VM documentation.
  • Present Windows and Linux examples side-by-side or alternate which is shown first.
  • Expand monitoring/diagnostics instructions to explicitly cover Linux VM extensions and tools.
