Summary
The tutorial demonstrates a notable Windows bias: all virtual machine examples use Windows Server, IIS installation is shown only via PowerShell, and RDP is the sole remote access method described. There are no Linux VM examples, nor are SSH or Linux-native tools mentioned. The only scripting example is PowerShell, with no Bash or CLI alternatives. This creates friction for Linux/macOS users who may wish to follow the tutorial using Linux VMs or non-Windows management tools.
Recommendations
  • Include parallel instructions for deploying Linux-based VMs (e.g., Ubuntu) in both the spoke and on-premises networks.
  • Provide examples for installing and testing with Apache/Nginx on Linux VMs, alongside IIS on Windows.
  • Offer SSH-based connectivity instructions for Linux VMs, in addition to RDP for Windows.
  • Show how to install web servers and test connectivity using Bash/CLI commands, not just PowerShell.
  • Reference Azure CLI and Bash scripting alternatives for all automation steps, not just PowerShell.
  • Present Linux and Windows examples side-by-side, or at least alternate which is shown first.
