Summary
The documentation is heavily Windows-centric, focusing exclusively on Windows Server OS families, Windows-based configuration files, and PowerShell scripts. There are no references to Linux-based guest OS families, tools, or migration paths. All examples and recommendations assume a Windows environment, with no parity for Linux users.
Recommendations
- Include information about Linux-based guest OS families, if supported by Azure Cloud Services, and clarify if this retirement notice is Windows-only.
- Provide equivalent command-line examples using Azure CLI (cross-platform) or Bash scripts, not just Azure PowerShell.
- Mention migration or support options for Linux workloads, if applicable, or explicitly state that the guidance is only relevant for Windows-based services.
- Balance references to development tools (e.g., mention VS Code or cross-platform SDKs, not just Visual Studio for Windows).
- Clarify in the introduction whether Linux users are affected or not, to avoid confusion.
