Summary
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias primarily through its references to Windows-specific tools and patterns, such as Windows Server Failover Clusters and Cloud Witness, and by linking to Windows-centric best practices and configuration guides. There are no explicit Linux or cross-platform examples, and Linux equivalents (such as Pacemaker or Corosync for clustering) are not mentioned. The Azure Hybrid Benefit section mentions RHEL and SLES, but only in passing, and does not provide guidance or examples for Linux-based SQL deployments. The clustering and high availability sections exclusively discuss Windows approaches and do not address Linux scenarios.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit examples and guidance for Linux-based SQL Server deployments, including clustering and high availability (e.g., Pacemaker, Corosync).
  • Provide links to Linux best practices for SQL Server on Azure VMs, in addition to Windows guides.
  • Ensure that all configuration and migration steps are described in a cross-platform manner, or provide parallel instructions for Linux environments.
  • Clarify Azure Hybrid Benefit applicability and licensing for Linux SQL Server scenarios, with concrete examples.
  • Include screenshots or references to Linux management tools where relevant.
