I agree with some of the points sir
For the development corporations, I still feel, they are better of using Linux, it saves lots of money. I see nowadays even people are using Linux and Docker to spin of windows servers, as Linux is cheap, whereas azure and windows hosting takes a huge amount of money

Where does your idea that it saves a lot money even comes from? I never used Windows servers so I don't really know much of it. But I've just checked Azure and Windows and Linux instances cost is same for same size of instance. And Azure is priced competitively with similar providers like AWS or GCP.
