Summary
The documentation page primarily provides instructions for configuring an internal load balancer endpoint using Azure Application Gateway via the Azure portal. When creating backend VMs, only Windows Server is used as the example image, and IIS (a Windows web server) is installed. The Cloud Shell instructions exclusively use PowerShell and Windows-specific commands for IIS installation, with no mention of Linux VM options, Linux web servers (such as Apache or Nginx), or Bash alternatives. This creates friction for Linux/macOS users who may wish to use Linux VMs or different web servers.
Recommendations
  • Provide parallel instructions for creating Linux-based backend VMs (e.g., Ubuntu) and installing a Linux web server (such as Apache or Nginx).
  • Include Bash/CLI examples in Cloud Shell for Linux VM configuration and web server installation.
  • Mention that backend pools can use Linux VMs and provide guidance for Linux users.
  • Where PowerShell is used, offer Bash equivalents or clarify that both shells are supported in Cloud Shell.
