Summary
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias by focusing exclusively on Azure Virtual Machines (which are often Windows-based), SQL Server, and SAP HANA in Azure VMs as supported workloads, with no mention of Linux-specific backup scenarios or workloads. In the 'Supported clients' section, PowerShell is listed before CLI, and there are no Bash or Linux shell examples. There are no references to Linux tools, commands, or patterns, nor are there examples or guidance for Linux users. The screenshots and instructions are tailored to the Azure portal and PowerShell, which are more commonly used by Windows users.
Recommendations
- Add explicit examples and instructions for Linux-based workloads, such as Linux VMs, PostgreSQL, or MySQL in Azure.
- Include CLI (az) and Bash shell examples alongside or before PowerShell examples to ensure parity.
- Mention Linux-specific backup scenarios and considerations, such as file system types, application consistency, or integration with Linux backup tools.
- Provide screenshots or walkthroughs using Linux environments where relevant.
- Clarify that the archive tier is available for both Windows and Linux VMs, if applicable, and highlight any differences.
