Nothing in the Web Development Essentials exam is specific to Linux. The
candidate should be able to use basically any common platform as a lab
environment and be aware or web server, application servers and
client/server computing so that he should be able to figure out on his own
how to deal with a provider. As you've mentioned, Heroku et. al. make it
really easy to run applications without manually maintaining the platform.
