Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by primarily referencing Windows-centric tools (SQL Server Management Studio), mentioning Windows tools before Linux alternatives, and lacking explicit Linux client examples or instructions. While Azure Data Studio and sqlcmd are cross-platform, the documentation does not provide Linux-specific connection instructions or highlight Linux-native SQL clients. The network configuration guidance is focused on Azure VM scenarios, which are often Windows-based, and does not address Linux VM nuances.
Recommendations
  • Include explicit examples for connecting from Linux environments, such as using Linux-native SQL clients (e.g., DBeaver, SquirrelSQL) or command-line tools.
  • Provide step-by-step instructions for configuring firewall rules and network access on Linux VMs, including relevant iptables or firewalld commands.
  • Present connection instructions for both Windows and Linux platforms in parallel, ensuring parity and clarity for users of either OS.
  • Mention Linux package installation steps for sqlcmd and Azure Data Studio, and clarify any OS-specific prerequisites.
  • Add troubleshooting tips for common Linux connectivity issues (e.g., SELinux, ufw, etc.).
