Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias by exclusively referencing Windows Server, SharePoint, and SQL Server—all Windows-only products. All examples and instructions assume Windows environments, with no mention of Linux-based SharePoint alternatives or guidance for Linux VMs. Script automation relies on SharePoint PowerShell cmdlets and Windows-specific tools (e.g., DFSR, Restore-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication), and there are no Linux shell or cross-platform script examples. The documentation also refers to Windows tools (DFSR, Central Administration GUI) and patterns before any Linux equivalents, which are not mentioned at all.
Recommendations
  • Include guidance for disaster recovery of SharePoint alternatives or similar multi-tier applications running on Linux (e.g., Alfresco, Nextcloud, or other open-source collaboration platforms).
  • Provide examples for replicating Linux-based VMs and handling failover, including automation scripts using Bash, Python, or Azure CLI.
  • Mention Linux-compatible backup and restore tools and procedures, such as rsync, cron jobs, or native database backup utilities.
  • Clarify which steps are Windows-specific and offer Linux equivalents where possible (e.g., updating DNS records, configuring load balancers, restoring databases).
  • Add references to Linux documentation and best practices for Azure Site Recovery with Linux workloads.
