Summary:
The documentation page is a service matrix listing Azure services that support customer managed keys (CMKs), with links to service-specific documentation. While the page itself is largely platform-neutral, there are subtle signs of Windows bias: some database entries (e.g., SQL Server on Azure VM, SQL Server on Virtual Machines) link specifically to Windows-focused documentation (e.g., /virtual-machines/windows/sql/), and the linked documentation for disk encryption and SQL Server often prioritizes or exclusively covers Windows scenarios. There are no explicit Linux or cross-platform examples or links for these services, and Linux parity is not highlighted.
Recommendations:
- For services like SQL Server on Azure VM and Virtual Machines, include links to both Windows and Linux documentation where available (e.g., /virtual-machines/linux/sql/).
- Where disk encryption is discussed, ensure that both Windows and Linux VM scenarios are referenced and linked equally.
- Add explicit notes or columns indicating Linux support or parity for CMK features, especially for services that are available on both platforms.
- Audit linked documentation to ensure Linux examples and instructions are present and as prominent as Windows ones.
- Consider adding a section or callout summarizing Linux support for CMKs across Azure services.
