Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a notable Windows bias. All virtual machine examples use Windows Server images, and IIS installation is performed exclusively via PowerShell commands. There are no Linux VM examples, nor are there instructions for installing a web server on Linux (such as Apache or Nginx). The use of PowerShell in Azure Cloud Shell is assumed, with no mention of Bash or Linux alternatives. This creates friction for users wishing to deploy Linux-based backend pools.
Recommendations
  • Provide parallel Linux VM examples (e.g., Ubuntu) alongside Windows Server.
  • Include instructions for installing a web server (such as Apache or Nginx) on Linux VMs, using Bash commands.
  • Show how to use Bash in Azure Cloud Shell for Linux VM configuration.
  • When presenting code snippets, offer both Windows (PowerShell) and Linux (Bash) alternatives.
  • Avoid assuming Windows as the default platform for backend servers.
