Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias by exclusively referencing Windows-based SQL Server deployments and migration scenarios. All examples, best practices, and links are tailored to Windows environments (e.g., SQL Server on Azure VM with Windows, Windows-specific performance guidelines, and cluster best practices). There is no mention of Linux-based SQL Server deployments, migration from Linux servers, or Linux-specific considerations, tools, or examples.
Recommendations
  • Include explicit guidance and examples for migrating SQL Server instances running on Linux to Azure targets.
  • Reference and link to Linux-specific best practices for SQL Server on Azure VM (e.g., /azure/azure-sql/virtual-machines/linux/performance-guidelines-best-practices-checklist).
  • Clarify whether the assessment and recommendations apply to both Windows and Linux SQL Server sources, and note any differences.
  • Add sections or notes on Linux-specific storage, compute, and high availability configurations (e.g., Pacemaker clusters, Linux disk mapping).
  • Provide parity in migration steps and remediation guidance for Linux environments.
