Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing Windows-specific protocols (e.g., SMB 3.0) and tools without equivalent Linux examples or alternatives. In the 'Data Protection & Storage' section, SMB (a Windows-native protocol) is mentioned for Azure File Shares, but there is no mention of NFS or Linux mounting instructions. Additionally, the order and phrasing often present Windows approaches or terminology first, and some links (e.g., Azure Disk Encryption for Windows VMs) are duplicated or misdirected, while Linux-specific guidance is less visible or missing.
Recommendations:
- Include Linux-specific protocols and tools (e.g., NFS for Azure File Shares) alongside or before Windows examples.
- Provide explicit Linux command-line or configuration examples where Windows tools or protocols are referenced.
- Ensure parity in documentation links: for every Windows-specific link (e.g., Azure Disk Encryption for Windows VMs), provide and correctly link to the Linux equivalent.
- Avoid referencing Windows protocols (such as SMB) exclusively; mention cross-platform or Linux-native options where available.
- Review the checklist for opportunities to add Linux administration and security best practices, not just those that align with Windows environments.
