Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by consistently referencing Windows-specific SQL Server deployment patterns (such as SQL Server on Azure VM with Windows), linking exclusively to Windows-based best practices, and omitting any mention of Linux-based SQL Server deployments or examples. There are no Linux or cross-platform scenarios, tools, or migration considerations discussed, despite SQL Server's support for Linux.
Recommendations
  • Include explicit references to SQL Server on Linux as a supported source and target for Azure Migrate assessments.
  • Provide parallel guidance and examples for migrating SQL Server workloads running on Linux, including any differences in assessment, readiness, or sizing.
  • Link to best practices and performance guidelines for SQL Server on Linux VMs in Azure, not just Windows.
  • Clarify whether the assessment tool supports both Windows and Linux SQL Server sources, and highlight any platform-specific considerations.
  • Add examples or notes for Linux-specific configurations (e.g., file system layouts, disk mapping, or high availability patterns like Pacemaker clusters).
