Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows-first bias throughout. Windows and Azure SQL Database are consistently mentioned before Linux and MySQL equivalents, and detailed examples or guidance for Linux deployments are limited or deferred to external links. Windows-specific tools and services (e.g., Azure SQL Database, Premium SSDs for Windows, and explicit mention of 'SAP BOBI Platform on Windows with Azure SQL Database') are highlighted, while Linux alternatives are less emphasized or lack equivalent detail. There are no Linux/POSIX command-line or configuration examples, and Linux deployment guidance is relegated to a separate page rather than being integrated.
Recommendations
  • Present Windows and Linux options in parallel throughout the documentation, rather than listing Windows first or in more detail.
  • Include explicit Linux deployment examples and configuration steps within this main guide, not just as a link to a separate Linux-specific page.
  • Provide parity in discussion of database options (e.g., equal detail for Azure Database for MySQL and Azure SQL Database, including limitations and best practices for both platforms).
  • Mention Linux-native tools and patterns (e.g., NFS setup, Linux file permissions, systemd service management) alongside Windows equivalents.
  • Ensure that all architectural diagrams and storage/networking sections include Linux-specific considerations and not just Windows defaults.
  • Add command-line examples for both Windows (PowerShell, CMD) and Linux (Bash, shell scripts) where relevant.
