Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows-first bias by frequently mentioning Windows technologies (such as Windows Server Failover Clusters, SQL Server Always On, and Windows physical servers) before or more prominently than Linux equivalents. There are no Linux-specific examples, tools, or scenarios described, and the only explicit mention of Linux is in a parenthetical note. Windows tools and patterns (e.g., shared disk for WSFC, SQL FCI) are discussed in detail, while Linux disaster recovery scenarios are not addressed.
Recommendations:
- Include explicit Linux-based disaster recovery scenarios and examples, such as replicating Linux VMs or physical servers, and protecting Linux-based clustered applications (e.g., Pacemaker, Corosync).
- Provide parity in workload examples by mentioning common Linux workloads (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL, Apache, NGINX) alongside Windows workloads like SQL Server.
- Add Linux-specific guidance or links for scripting, automation, and failover testing (e.g., using Bash scripts, Ansible, or Linux-native tools) in recovery plans.
- Balance the discussion of Windows and Linux tools and patterns, ensuring that Linux equivalents are introduced wherever Windows-specific technologies are described.
- Where shared disk or clustering is discussed, mention Linux clustering solutions and how Site Recovery supports them, if applicable.
