Summary
The documentation provides a broad overview of Azure Service Fabric, covering both Windows and Linux support. However, there is a notable Windows bias: Windows-specific tools and processes (e.g., PowerShell, Visual Studio, Windows services/executables) are mentioned first or exclusively in several sections. Examples and links for creating standalone clusters are Windows-only, and Linux standalone clusters are explicitly not supported. PowerShell is often referenced before CLI, and Windows-specific executables (FabricHost.exe, Fabric.exe) are described as core components. While Linux support is acknowledged, Linux-specific instructions, examples, and tools are less prominent or missing.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-first or Linux-parity examples and instructions alongside Windows ones, especially for cluster creation, management, and health monitoring.
  • Highlight CLI usage equally or before PowerShell, as CLI is cross-platform.
  • Add explicit guidance for Linux users where features are supported, including links to Linux documentation and tools.
  • Clarify Windows-only limitations early and consistently, and provide alternatives or workarounds for Linux users where possible.
  • Include Linux-specific troubleshooting, monitoring, and diagnostic tools and workflows.
