Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several areas: Windows tools and technologies (such as PowerShell and WMI) are mentioned as requirements, often without equivalent Linux details or alternatives. SQL Server discovery and web app discovery are supported only or primarily for Windows, with Linux support either missing or limited. Example scripts and configuration steps are provided only for Windows authentication scenarios, with no Linux-specific examples. Windows requirements and tools are often listed before Linux equivalents, and some features (like SQL Server discovery) are not supported for Linux at all.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent Linux examples and instructions wherever Windows-specific tools or scripts are mentioned (e.g., sample scripts for Linux authentication and permissions).
- When listing requirements or supported OSes, alternate the order or group Windows and Linux together to avoid always listing Windows first.
- Expand support for Linux workloads where possible (e.g., SQL Server on Linux, web app discovery for Linux-based stacks). If not supported, clearly state the roadmap or alternatives.
- Where Windows tools (PowerShell, WMI) are required, specify the Linux equivalents (e.g., Bash, SSH, relevant Linux management tools) and provide configuration guidance.
- Ensure that all features and workflows are documented for both Windows and Linux, or clearly indicate any limitations or differences in parity.
