Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing and detailing Windows-centric workloads and tools (e.g., Active Directory, SQL Server, Exchange, SharePoint, IIS, Remote Desktop Services) before Linux equivalents. While Linux is mentioned as supported, there is a lack of Linux-specific examples, guidance, or parity in workload descriptions. Windows tools and technologies are referenced extensively, with little to no mention of Linux-native alternatives or application scenarios.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Linux workload examples (e.g., Apache, NGINX, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Samba, OpenLDAP) and describe their disaster recovery scenarios using Azure Site Recovery.
  • Include Linux-specific guidance and best practices for replication, failover, and failback, such as handling Linux filesystems, bootloaders, and network configurations.
  • Provide parity in documentation structure: for each Windows-centric section (e.g., Protect SQL Server), add a corresponding Linux section (e.g., Protect MySQL/PostgreSQL).
  • Reference Linux-native tools and patterns (e.g., systemd, cron, rsync, LVM snapshots) where relevant, and provide example scripts or automation for Linux environments.
  • Ensure that tables and workload summaries list Linux applications and scenarios with equal prominence and detail as Windows workloads.
