Summary
The documentation for Azure Migrate shows a moderate Windows bias. Windows-centric features (such as Windows Server redeployment, Windows OS upgrade, and integration with Windows-only tools like PowerShell) are highlighted, often before or without equivalent Linux examples. Windows terminology and tools (PowerShell, IIS, Windows Server, System Center Operations Manager) are frequently mentioned, sometimes without Linux alternatives or parity in example coverage. Linux support is present, but often referenced as an add-on or in later updates, and Linux-specific migration scenarios or tools are less emphasized.
Recommendations
  • Ensure Linux migration features are described with equal prominence and detail as Windows features.
  • Provide Linux-specific examples and workflows (e.g., Bash scripts, Linux-native tools) alongside or before Windows/PowerShell examples.
  • Highlight Linux migration scenarios (such as SELinux, systemd, Apache/Nginx web apps) and their Azure equivalents.
  • Mention Linux authentication and management tools (e.g., SSH, sudo, Ansible) where Windows tools (PowerShell, RDP) are referenced.
  • Add parity in agentless/agent-based migration instructions for Linux and Windows, including troubleshooting and best practices.
  • Include Linux-specific security and compliance considerations in security insights and recommendations.
