Summary
The documentation page displays a moderate Windows bias. It frequently references Windows-centric technologies (such as IIS, Windows Server Failover Clusters, and Windows licensing), links to Windows-specific best practices, and omits explicit Linux migration scenarios or examples. Linux equivalents (e.g., Linux SQL Server, Linux-based clustering, or migration from Linux hosts) are not mentioned, and guidance is tailored to Windows environments. While some settings acknowledge Enterprise Linux subscriptions (RHEL/SLES) for licensing, practical migration steps, readiness checks, and high availability/disaster recovery guidance are focused on Windows tools and patterns.
Recommendations
- Add explicit examples and guidance for assessing and migrating SQL Server instances running on Linux (including Ubuntu, RHEL, SLES, etc.).
- Include links to best practices for SQL Server on Linux in Azure VMs, not just Windows.
- Provide parity in high availability/disaster recovery guidance for Linux-based SQL Server clusters (e.g., Pacemaker, Linux witness options).
- Clarify whether the Azure Migrate appliance supports discovery and assessment of SQL Server on Linux hosts, and document any limitations.
- Ensure that migration scenarios and readiness checks cover both Windows and Linux source environments equally.
