Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: references to Windows-specific tools and patterns (such as Cloud Witness and Windows Server Failover Clusters), links to Windows-centric best practices, and a lack of Linux-specific examples or parity in high availability/disaster recovery scenarios. Linux equivalents (e.g., Linux clustering, witness options, migration patterns) are not mentioned or are relegated to licensing notes only.
Recommendations
  • Include Linux-specific examples and guidance for SQL Server on Linux, such as clustering and high availability/disaster recovery options (e.g., Pacemaker, Linux witness options).
  • Provide links to best practices for running SQL Server on Azure VMs with Linux, similar to the Windows-focused link currently present.
  • Clarify and expand on Azure Hybrid Benefit for Linux (RHEL/SLES), including migration/licensing scenarios and technical steps.
  • Ensure that migration strategies and readiness reports explicitly address both Windows and Linux SQL Server deployments, with clear instructions for each.
  • Add screenshots and walkthroughs for Linux-based SQL Server assessments and migrations where applicable.
