Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows-centric technologies, specifically Azure Stack HCI and System Center Virtual Machine Manager (ScVmm), which are exclusive to Windows environments. There are no Linux-specific examples, roles, or tools mentioned, and the documentation does not address Linux or cross-platform scenarios, despite the 'Hybrid + multicloud' context. The structure and terminology assume a Windows-first audience and omit Linux equivalents or guidance.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly state the Windows-only nature of Azure Stack HCI and ScVmm roles at the top of the page, clarifying the lack of Linux support.
  • If Linux or cross-platform management is possible via Azure Arc or other tools, provide dedicated sections or links to Linux-specific documentation.
  • Include examples or references for managing hybrid/multicloud environments that include Linux servers, such as using Azure Arc-enabled servers for Linux.
  • Add a comparison table or guidance for users managing both Windows and Linux resources, highlighting differences and available role-based access controls.
  • Ensure that future documentation in the 'Hybrid + multicloud' category covers both Windows and Linux scenarios, or clearly scopes content to Windows if Linux is not supported.
