Summary
The documentation is heavily biased toward Windows and PowerShell. All code examples use Azure PowerShell cmdlets, and the virtual machine created is explicitly a Windows Server instance. The connectivity test and management steps assume the use of Windows PowerShell and SQL Server Management Studio, both Windows-centric tools. There are no examples or guidance for Linux users, such as using Bash/CLI, connecting from a Linux VM, or using cross-platform SQL tools.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Azure CLI (az) examples for all resource creation and management steps.
  • Include instructions for creating a Linux VM and connecting to Azure SQL from Linux (e.g., using sqlcmd, Azure Data Studio, or other cross-platform tools).
  • Add connectivity test steps using Bash or Linux shell commands (e.g., nslookup, dig) and SQL connection examples for Linux.
  • Mention cross-platform management tools (Azure Data Studio, sqlcmd) alongside SQL Server Management Studio.
  • Clearly indicate which steps are Windows-specific and provide Linux alternatives where appropriate.
