Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively supporting and referencing Windows-based App Service plans, omitting Linux-based plans, and by prioritizing Windows tools and patterns such as SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS), Visual Studio Code, and MSI installers. There are no examples or instructions for Linux environments, and Linux-based hosting is explicitly unsupported.
Recommendations
- Add explicit instructions and examples for Linux-based development and hosting, including supported SQL server editions and connection methods on Linux.
- Clarify whether Linux-based App Service plans will be supported in the future, or provide rationale for their exclusion.
- Include parity for Linux tools (e.g., Azure CLI, sqlcmd, VS Code on Linux) and workflows, and demonstrate how to set up SQL storage from Linux environments.
- If Windows-only support is a technical limitation, highlight this clearly at the start of the documentation and provide alternative guidance for Linux users.
- Reference cross-platform SQL management tools and provide connection string examples for both Windows and Linux environments.
