Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. It prioritizes Windows-centric tools (SQL Server Management Studio, Azure Data Studio) and patterns, mentioning them before Linux alternatives. Examples and instructions for connecting to SQL Managed Instance focus on Windows tools and workflows, with only brief mentions of Linux. The documentation does not provide Linux-specific client recommendations or detailed Linux connection steps, and the VM networking section assumes Azure CLI usage, which is cross-platform but often associated with Windows environments.
Recommendations
  • Include explicit Linux/macOS client tool recommendations (e.g., DBeaver, SquirrelSQL, or native sqlcmd usage on Linux).
  • Provide step-by-step connection examples for Linux/macOS, including screenshots or terminal commands.
  • Clarify that Azure Data Studio and SQLCMD are cross-platform, and provide installation instructions for Linux/macOS.
  • Add troubleshooting notes for common Linux/macOS connectivity issues (e.g., firewall, SELinux, network configuration).
  • Present examples in parallel (Windows and Linux/macOS side-by-side) rather than Windows-first.
