Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows Server migration scenarios, mentioning Windows-specific features (such as Azure Hybrid Benefit for Windows Server licenses and the Windows OS upgrade process), and providing detailed guidance and tooling for Windows workloads. There is a lack of explicit Linux migration examples, Linux-specific tooling, or parity in OS upgrade guidance for Linux servers. Windows tools and patterns (e.g., Custom Script Extension for Windows, Windows Server end-of-support incentives) are described in detail, while Linux equivalents are either omitted or mentioned only briefly.
Recommendations
- Add explicit examples and guidance for migrating Linux servers, including common Linux distributions and their specific considerations.
- Provide parity in OS upgrade documentation for Linux (e.g., guidance for in-place upgrades or migration of Linux VMs, including supported distributions and tooling).
- Mention Linux-specific migration blockers, compatibility checks, and remediation steps alongside Windows examples.
- Include references to Linux tools and extensions (e.g., Custom Script Extension for Linux, supported automation scripts) where relevant.
- Ensure cost optimization guidance covers Linux licensing/subscription scenarios with equal detail as Windows.
- Balance the order of presentation so that Linux and Windows scenarios are introduced together, rather than Windows-first.
