Summary
The documentation demonstrates a notable Windows bias, particularly in the backend VM creation and configuration steps. Only Windows Server is used as the example OS for backend VMs, and IIS installation is performed exclusively via Azure PowerShell using Windows-specific commands. There are no Linux VM examples, nor instructions for installing a Linux web server (e.g., Apache or Nginx), and no Bash or CLI alternatives are provided for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Include parallel instructions for creating Linux VMs (e.g., Ubuntu) as backend servers.
  • Provide Linux-specific steps for installing a web server (e.g., Apache or Nginx) using Bash/CLI or Azure CLI.
  • Offer Azure CLI or Bash script alternatives to the PowerShell commands for VM extension installation.
  • Explicitly mention that Application Gateway supports both Windows and Linux backend VMs.
  • Present both Windows and Linux examples side-by-side, or alternate which OS is shown first.
