Summary
The documentation page consistently uses Windows-based SQL Server VM examples and references SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS), a Windows-only client, for connectivity testing. There are no examples or guidance for Linux-based SQL Server VMs or for connecting from Linux/macOS clients. The Windows VM is presented as the default backend, and Windows tools are referenced exclusively.
Recommendations
  • Include instructions for deploying a SQL Server VM on Linux (e.g., Ubuntu) as an alternative backend.
  • Provide examples of connecting to the SQL Server via cross-platform clients such as Azure Data Studio, sqlcmd, or other CLI tools available on Linux/macOS.
  • Mention that the Application Gateway TCP/TLS proxy works with both Windows and Linux SQL Server backends, and clarify any OS-specific requirements.
  • Add screenshots or command-line examples relevant to Linux/macOS environments.
  • Explicitly state that the procedure is applicable regardless of the backend OS, unless there are Azure limitations.
