Proposed changes

This commit builds atop a community PR that has been inactive for
months, rewriting the documentation for creating a Microsoft Azure
virtual machine that uses NGINX. The changes include:

  • Removing redundant text and indentation
  • Delineating NGINX Plus information with call-outs
  • Replacing inline HTML with Hugo shortcodes

There are additional improvements that could be made, such as avoiding
re-documenting a third party SaaS altogether. The scope of such a change
is outside the remit of this PR, as it would be an overall content
design change for how NGINX documentation is structured and managed.

Closes #608
Closes #147

great job!

the only suggestion from me would be adding the Revision History back and updating it, since it's a deployment guide

Revision History

  • Version 2 (December 2025) - Revised version (short list of changes)
  • Version 1 (September 2020) – Initial version (NGINX Plus Release 22)
