Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by focusing heavily on Windows Server, SQL Server, Hyper-V, and Microsoft management tools (e.g., System Center), with little to no mention of Linux servers or workloads. Cost calculations, licensing, and migration strategies are centered around Windows technologies, and there are no explicit examples or guidance for Linux-based environments. Linux is only briefly mentioned in passing (e.g., in license amortization), with no details or parity in examples or cost breakdowns.
Recommendations:
- Include explicit guidance and examples for Linux server discovery, assessment, and migration, such as supported Linux distributions and how the appliance collects data from them.
- Add cost calculation details for Linux OS licensing, support, and management, similar to the breakdowns provided for Windows and SQL Server.
- Reference Linux management and monitoring tools (e.g., Azure Monitor for Linux, open-source alternatives) alongside Windows tools like System Center.
- Ensure migration strategies and assessment insights cover Linux workloads (e.g., Apache, MySQL, PostgreSQL) and not just Windows-centric workloads.
- Provide parity in documentation structure and examples, ensuring Linux scenarios are described with the same depth as Windows scenarios.
