Summary:
The documentation for Azure Migrate demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows-specific tools (e.g., PowerShell, Windows Server, IIS) and features are frequently mentioned, often before or instead of Linux equivalents. Many examples and feature highlights focus on Windows workloads (Windows Server, SQL Server, ASP.NET, IIS), and automation or scripting references are almost exclusively to PowerShell, with little to no mention of Bash or Linux-native tools. While Linux support is mentioned (e.g., SSH authentication, RHEL/SLES migration), Linux-specific guidance, examples, or parity in tooling references are often missing or less detailed.
Recommendations:
- Provide Linux-specific examples and workflows alongside Windows ones, especially for automation (e.g., Bash scripts, Linux CLI commands).
- Mention Linux-native tools (e.g., shell scripts, systemd, cron) where PowerShell or Windows tools are referenced.
- Ensure that Linux migration scenarios (e.g., Apache, NGINX, MySQL, Tomcat) are given equal prominence and detail as Windows scenarios (e.g., IIS, SQL Server, ASP.NET).
- Add explicit Linux-focused tutorials or quickstarts where only Windows examples are currently present.
- Clarify when features or tools are Windows-only, and provide Linux alternatives or workarounds where possible.
- Include references to Linux distributions and their specific requirements or best practices in migration contexts.
