Summary
The documentation is exclusively focused on Windows Server-based Guest OS releases for Azure Cloud Services. All examples, configuration strings, and compatibility notes reference only Windows Server versions and .NET Framework. There is no mention of Linux-based Guest OS families, nor any guidance, examples, or tooling for Linux or cross-platform scenarios. Windows tools (Visual Studio, RDP) are referenced without alternatives.
Recommendations
- Explicitly state that Azure Cloud Services Guest OS is Windows-only, if that is the case, to avoid confusion for Linux users.
- If Linux-based Guest OS families are supported or planned, add equivalent documentation sections for those, including release notes, configuration strings, and SDK compatibility.
- Provide guidance or links for users seeking Linux-based solutions on Azure (e.g., Azure Virtual Machines, Azure App Service for Linux, Azure Kubernetes Service).
- Where Windows tools (Visual Studio, RDP) are mentioned, suggest cross-platform alternatives or clarify their applicability.
- Add a comparison table or FAQ explaining the differences between Cloud Services (classic), IaaS VMs, and Linux support in Azure.
