Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by consistently referencing Windows Server and SQL Server licensing, Extended Security Updates (ESU), and System Center management software. Cost formulas and management scenarios are detailed for Windows environments, with Linux only briefly mentioned in license amortization and support, but lacking equivalent depth or examples. Windows-specific tools and benefits (e.g., Azure Hybrid Benefit, ESU, System Center) are discussed in detail, while Linux migration, licensing, and management scenarios are not covered with the same granularity.
Recommendations
- Provide explicit examples and cost formulas for Linux workloads, including common Linux distributions and their licensing/support models.
- Include Linux management and monitoring tool equivalents (e.g., integration with Ansible, Chef, Puppet, or open-source monitoring solutions) alongside System Center.
- Discuss migration strategies and cost optimization for Linux workloads, such as lift-and-shift to Azure VMs running Linux, modernization to Azure App Service for Linux, or AKS with Linux nodes.
- Detail Azure Hybrid Benefit and ESU applicability (or lack thereof) for Linux, and clarify cost differences.
- Ensure tables and formulas include Linux-specific components, such as Linux OS licensing/support, patch management, and security solutions.
- Add Linux-focused sustainability and emissions calculations if they differ from Windows workloads.
