Summary
The documentation page for Azure Service Fabric DNS service exhibits several Windows-centric biases. PowerShell is the only CLI example provided for setting DNS names, with no Linux CLI (e.g., Bash, Azure CLI) alternatives. The ApplicationManifest.xml example assumes Visual Studio, a Windows tool, and does not mention Linux development workflows. The limitations section clearly states that Linux support is restricted and that DNS service cannot be enabled via the Azure portal for Linux clusters, but the documentation does not offer Linux-specific guidance or parity in examples. Windows methods and tools are presented first and in greater detail.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux/Bash/Azure CLI examples for service creation and DNS name assignment.
  • Clarify Linux development workflows for ApplicationManifest.xml editing (e.g., using VS Code, nano, or other editors).
  • Explicitly document how Linux users can enable DNS service (e.g., via ARM templates or REST API), since portal support is missing.
  • Where PowerShell is shown, provide equivalent commands for Linux environments (e.g., Azure CLI, REST API calls).
  • Add a section summarizing the differences and workarounds for Linux users, including limitations and alternative approaches.
