Summary
The documentation page exhibits a moderate Windows bias. Windows Server and SQL Server are referenced repeatedly, with specific migration scenarios and benefits (such as free security updates for Windows Server 2008/2008 R2) highlighted. The 'Upgrade Windows OS' section provides detailed steps and tooling for Windows in-place upgrades, but there is no equivalent guidance for Linux OS upgrades or migration nuances. Linux is mentioned only briefly in the context of Azure Hybrid Benefit, and there are no Linux-specific migration examples, blockers, or recommendations. The documentation assumes Windows-centric workloads and omits Linux/macOS-specific migration considerations.
Recommendations
- Add explicit examples and guidance for migrating Linux workloads, including common Linux distributions and their migration blockers.
- Include a section on Linux OS upgrades or migration strategies, similar to the Windows OS upgrade section.
- Provide parity in tooling descriptions, such as mentioning Linux-compatible migration scripts or extensions.
- Highlight Linux-specific Azure features (e.g., support for open-source databases, Linux VM SKUs) and cost-saving options.
- Ensure that migration readiness and assessment examples include both Windows and Linux scenarios.
