Summary
The documentation exclusively uses Windows Server images for all virtual machines and provides only Windows PowerShell examples for configuring IIS. There are no Linux VM options, nor are there Bash or Linux-native instructions for installing a web server. The tutorial assumes Windows as the default platform, which may create friction for users preferring or requiring Linux-based deployments.
Recommendations
  • Provide parallel instructions for deploying Linux VMs (e.g., Ubuntu or CentOS) alongside Windows VMs.
  • Include Bash/SSH examples for installing Apache or Nginx on Linux VMs, mirroring the IIS setup for Windows.
  • Offer guidance on using the Azure portal to select Linux images and configure Linux-specific settings.
  • Clarify that both Windows and Linux VMs are supported in backend pools and link to relevant Linux documentation.
  • Present examples for both platforms side-by-side or allow users to select their preferred OS path in the tutorial.
