Summary:
The documentation page is primarily a directory of reliability guides for Azure services, with minimal technical content or examples. However, there is evidence of Windows bias in the form of references to Windows-specific tools (e.g., Azure PowerShell) and deployment guides that mention PowerShell explicitly. For example, the Azure Firewall and Azure Web Application Firewall entries link to guides for deploying with Azure PowerShell, with no mention of equivalent CLI, Bash, or Linux-native instructions. There is also a tendency to mention Windows-oriented tools before (or instead of) cross-platform alternatives.
Recommendations:
- For every reference to PowerShell-based deployment or management, include equivalent instructions or links for Azure CLI (az), Bash scripts, or other cross-platform tools.
- Where possible, avoid tool-specific phrasing in the main directoryβuse neutral language like 'Deploy using Azure CLI or PowerShell' and provide both options in linked guides.
- Audit linked reliability guides to ensure Linux and cross-platform users have parity in examples and instructions, not just Windows/PowerShell.
- Explicitly mention when a guide or tool is Windows-only, and provide alternative guidance for Linux/macOS users.
- Consider adding a column or tags in the directory to indicate platform/tool coverage (e.g., PowerShell, CLI, Bash, Portal) for each guide.
