Summary
The documentation provides code examples for scaling Service Fabric services primarily using PowerShell and C#, both of which are most commonly associated with Windows environments. There are no equivalent Linux shell (bash/CLI) examples, and Windows-centric tools (PowerShell cmdlets) are referenced first and exclusively. This creates friction for Linux users, who may not use PowerShell or may prefer bash/CLI commands. The documentation does mention platform differences in logging, but does not provide Linux-specific operational guidance or examples for scaling tasks.
Recommendations
  • Include equivalent Linux CLI (bash/az CLI) examples for all PowerShell commands shown.
  • Explicitly mention how Linux users can perform the same scaling operations (e.g., using Azure CLI, REST API, or Service Fabric CLI).
  • Where PowerShell cmdlets are referenced, add links or notes about Linux alternatives.
  • Consider reordering examples so that Windows and Linux approaches are presented side-by-side, or Linux examples are not always secondary.
  • Add a section or callout for Linux-specific operational considerations beyond logging (e.g., service management, scaling commands).
