Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows-centric workloads and tools. Examples and migration scenarios focus on VMware, Hyper-V, and Windows-hosted web apps (e.g., ASP.NET), with no explicit mention of Linux servers, Linux web apps, or Linux-specific migration considerations. The tools and migration assistants highlighted are primarily designed for Windows environments, and there is a lack of parity in Linux guidance or examples.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit examples and guidance for migrating Linux servers (both physical and virtual) to Azure, including supported distributions and any unique considerations.
  • Include Linux web app migration scenarios (e.g., Apache, Nginx, Java, Node.js) alongside Windows/ASP.NET examples.
  • Mention Linux-compatible tools and provide parity in tool descriptions (e.g., clarify if Data Migration Assistant, App Service Migration Assistant, etc., support Linux workloads).
  • Ensure that migration steps, troubleshooting, and assessment guidance are not Windows-centric and address cross-platform needs.
  • Where Windows-specific tools or patterns are mentioned, provide Linux equivalents or alternatives, and present both platforms equally in tables and lists.
