linux vm

The linux vm tag on WindowsForum.com covers discussions about running Linux virtual machines, particularly within Microsoft Azure. A key thread covers Microsoft Azure Linux 4.0, a Fedora-based server distribution designed for Azure VMs, and the separation of container hosting into Azure Container Linux. This reflects Microsoft's shift from treating its Linux distribution as internal infrastructure to offering it as a supported product for general-purpose server workloads. The tag includes topics such as VM deployment, distribution choices, and Azure-specific optimizations for Linux guests.
