Summary:
The documentation exclusively references SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) and SQL Server Agent, both of which are Windows-only tools. All instructions, screenshots, and workflow steps assume the use of SSMS on Windows, with no mention of Linux or cross-platform alternatives. There are no examples or guidance for users on Linux or macOS, nor are command-line or platform-agnostic methods provided.
Recommendations:
- Acknowledge in the prerequisites or introduction that SSMS and SQL Server Agent are Windows-only tools, and clarify if there are any supported alternatives for Linux/macOS users.
- If possible, provide guidance or references for performing similar migrations using cross-platform tools such as Azure Data Studio, Azure CLI, or PowerShell Core (which is cross-platform).
- Include a note or section addressing Linux users, outlining any available options or workarounds, or explicitly state if the migration process is only supported from Windows environments.
- Consider adding command-line examples (e.g., using Azure CLI or REST API) for steps such as ARM template deployment, to improve parity for non-Windows users.
