Summary
The documentation page exhibits a notable Windows bias. Windows authentication is mentioned as a primary option alongside SQL authentication, with examples and property tables. Troubleshooting steps and configuration instructions reference Windows-specific tools such as SQL Server Management Studio, SQL Server Configuration Manager, and Windows Firewall, with no mention of Linux equivalents or cross-platform alternatives. All example code and UI screenshots are platform-neutral, but operational instructions (e.g., enabling remote connections, configuring network protocols, firewall rules) are exclusively Windows-focused. There are no instructions for Linux-based Amazon RDS for SQL Server management, nor are Linux authentication or tooling options discussed.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent instructions for Linux environments, such as using sqlcmd, Azure Data Studio, or other cross-platform tools for managing SQL Server.
  • Include troubleshooting steps for configuring Amazon RDS for SQL Server connectivity from Linux hosts, such as adjusting firewalls (e.g., iptables, ufw) and network settings.
  • Clarify authentication options for Linux users, including Kerberos or other supported mechanisms if available.
  • Provide examples or links for managing SQL Server on Linux, if supported, or explicitly state platform limitations.
  • Where Windows-specific tools are referenced, add notes or alternatives for macOS/Linux users.
