Summary
The documentation provides Azure Functions networking options across hosting plans, but exhibits mild Windows bias in several areas. Hybrid Connections are Windows-only and this is clearly stated, which is appropriate. However, in the 'Virtual network triggers (non-HTTP)' section, CLI, PowerShell, and portal examples are given, but PowerShell is presented alongside CLI without explicit Linux shell (bash) examples. Additionally, PowerShell is referenced in automation and configuration steps, and Windows subnet sizing is mentioned before Linux. The troubleshooting section references Azure portal tools, which are cross-platform, but does not mention Linux-specific troubleshooting approaches. Overall, Linux parity is mostly present, but Windows tools and examples are more prominent.
Recommendations
- Add explicit bash/Azure CLI examples for configuration tasks, especially where PowerShell is shown.
- Clarify when PowerShell commands are Windows-only and provide equivalent Linux/macOS instructions where possible.
- Ensure subnet sizing recommendations for Linux are given equal prominence to Windows (e.g., in tables and explanations).
- In troubleshooting, mention CLI-based diagnostics or other Linux-friendly approaches.
- Where automation is discussed, highlight cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI, Terraform) before Windows-specific tools.
