Summary
While the documentation is generally cross-platform and mentions both Linux and Windows as supported operating systems for SAP on Azure, there are several instances of Windows bias. Windows terminology and tools (e.g., Windows Server Active Directory, RDP, SMB, PowerShell) are mentioned before or more prominently than their Linux equivalents. Some examples and references (such as PowerShell scripts for migration and Windows failover clustering) are Windows-specific, and Linux alternatives are not always provided or are referenced after Windows. In a few cases, Windows tools or patterns are described in detail, while Linux equivalents (such as SSH, Pacemaker, or Linux clustering) are mentioned but not elaborated upon. There are also links to Windows-specific guides and examples, with Linux examples sometimes missing or less detailed.
Recommendations
- Ensure that Linux examples (e.g., using SSH, Pacemaker, Linux clustering, NFS shares) are provided alongside Windows examples, and with equal detail.
- When referencing tools/scripts (e.g., migration scripts), provide both PowerShell and Bash/CLI alternatives, or clearly indicate Linux-compatible options.
- Avoid listing Windows terminology, tools, or guides before Linux equivalents; alternate the order or group by platform.
- Expand references to Linux-specific technologies (such as SELinux, systemd, Linux file permissions, Linux security practices) where relevant.
- Where Windows-specific guides are linked, ensure Linux equivalents are also linked and equally visible.
- Review all examples and ensure Linux users can follow each step without needing to translate Windows-centric instructions.
