Summary:
The documentation page shows subtle Windows bias by referencing Windows-specific tools and configuration paths before or instead of Linux equivalents. For example, the 'Client Network Configuration' link points to a Windows-only page, and there are no explicit Linux command examples or Docker-based configuration walkthroughs, despite Azure SQL Edge being primarily deployed on Linux containers. The mention of the absence of 'mssql-conf' utility is present, but there is no compensating Linux-centric guidance or examples.
Recommendations:
- Provide Linux-specific examples for client configuration, such as using sqlcmd or ODBC on Linux, and link to relevant Linux documentation.
- Include Docker-based configuration and security best practices, as Azure SQL Edge is typically deployed in containers on Linux.
- Balance references to Windows and Linux tools, ensuring that Linux-first or cross-platform instructions are given equal prominence.
- When referencing configuration files or utilities, provide explicit Linux paths and examples (e.g., editing mssql.conf on Linux, using environment variables in Docker Compose).
- Replace or supplement Windows-only links (such as 'Client Network Configuration') with Linux or cross-platform alternatives.
