Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing Windows Server and its licensing options (Azure Hybrid Benefit) before Linux equivalents, and by focusing on Windows Server versions in the assessment review. There is a lack of Linux-specific examples, guidance, or parity in the explanations, especially regarding licensing, supportability, and readiness reporting. Linux is only briefly mentioned in the context of RHEL and SLES licensing, with no further details or examples for other distributions or Linux-specific migration considerations.
Recommendations:
- Provide explicit Linux examples and guidance throughout the documentation, such as how assessments handle common Linux distributions (Ubuntu, CentOS, Debian, etc.), not just RHEL and SLES.
- Ensure that supportability and readiness sections discuss both Windows and Linux VMs equally, including how different Linux distributions are assessed for Azure compatibility.
- Include Linux-specific licensing and cost optimization options, and clarify how Azure Hybrid Benefit applies to Linux beyond RHEL/SLES.
- Add screenshots and walkthroughs that show Linux VMs being assessed, not just Windows Server.
- Wherever Windows Server is mentioned, ensure Linux is mentioned with equal detail and prominence.
- Clarify any differences in migration or assessment steps for Linux VMs, such as agent requirements, support for agentless assessment, or common issues unique to Linux workloads.
