Summary
The documentation shows evidence of Windows bias, primarily through repeated references to Windows-specific backup tools (MARS agent, Microsoft Azure Backup Server), features that are exclusive or primarily available for Windows Server, and examples or instructions that mention PowerShell before CLI or Linux alternatives. Linux workloads (e.g., SAP HANA on RHEL, PostgreSQL) are mentioned, but Windows-centric solutions and tools are more frequently highlighted, and some features/tools (MARS, MABS) are Windows-only. In several cases, PowerShell is referenced as the primary automation method, with CLI mentioned as an alternative or after PowerShell. There is limited coverage of Linux-native backup agents or parity in management tooling.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-specific examples and instructions alongside Windows/PowerShell ones, especially for automation and agent installation.
  • Clearly indicate platform support for each feature/tool, and highlight Linux parity where available.
  • When mentioning backup agents or servers (e.g., MARS, MABS), note their platform limitations and suggest Linux alternatives or Azure-native solutions for Linux workloads.
  • Ensure CLI and REST API examples are given equal prominence to PowerShell, and consider Bash scripting examples for Linux users.
  • Expand documentation on backup/restore for Linux workloads (e.g., SAP HANA on RHEL, PostgreSQL) with detailed, platform-specific guidance.
