Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing Windows-specific tools and patterns (e.g., Cloud Witness for Windows Server Failover Clusters, links to Windows-specific best practices), mentioning Windows scenarios before Linux equivalents, and omitting Linux-specific guidance or examples for SQL Server migrations. There are no Linux or cross-platform command-line examples, and Linux licensing (RHEL/SLES) is only briefly mentioned in the context of Azure Hybrid Benefit, without further guidance.
Recommendations:
- Include explicit examples and guidance for assessing SQL Server instances running on Linux, such as Ubuntu or RHEL, alongside Windows examples.
- Provide parity in high availability and disaster recovery sections by describing Linux-based clustering and witness options (e.g., using Linux Pacemaker clusters or file share witness on Linux).
- Add links to Linux-specific best practices for SQL Server on Azure VMs, similar to the Windows link provided.
- Clarify any differences in the Azure Migrate appliance setup or assessment process for Linux-based SQL Server instances.
- Where licensing or Azure Hybrid Benefit is discussed, provide concrete steps or references for Linux (RHEL/SLES) subscriptions, not just Windows.
- Ensure screenshots and UI references are not Windows-centric and, where possible, show cross-platform applicability.
