Summary
The documentation page, while targeting SAP deployments on Azure with a stated focus on VM-Linux, exhibits several signs of Windows bias. Windows tools and concepts (such as Windows Server Active Directory, RDP, Windows failover clustering, and PowerShell scripts) are mentioned frequently, sometimes before or in preference to Linux equivalents. Examples and references to Windows-specific technologies (e.g., SMB, Windows Server scale-out file share, Windows failover cluster) are given, while Linux alternatives (such as NFS, Pacemaker) are present but often less detailed or introduced after Windows options. PowerShell is referenced as the sample automation tool for migration, with no equivalent Bash or Linux CLI examples. Some sections (e.g., encryption, backup, networking) provide more detail for Windows scenarios or tools, and Linux-specific guidance is sometimes missing or less emphasized.
Recommendations
- Ensure that Linux-specific examples (e.g., Bash, Azure CLI, Pacemaker, NFS) are provided alongside or before Windows/PowerShell examples.
- Where Windows tools (Active Directory, RDP, SMB, failover clustering) are mentioned, provide equal detail and guidance for Linux alternatives (e.g., LDAP, SSH, NFS, Pacemaker).
- Include sample scripts and automation for Linux environments (e.g., Bash, Ansible, Terraform) in addition to PowerShell.
- Review all references to Windows technologies and ensure Linux equivalents are mentioned and linked with equal prominence.
- Expand sections on high availability, backup, and security to include Linux-specific best practices and troubleshooting.
- Where SAP Notes or guides are referenced for Windows, ensure Linux-specific SAP Notes are also listed and described.
