Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All workload examples, supported platforms, and backup scenarios are focused on Windows operating systems and Microsoft workloads (Windows Server, SQL Server, Exchange, SharePoint, Hyper-V). Linux is only mentioned as a guest OS in Hyper-V or VMware, with no details on native Linux backup, file-level recovery, or parity of features. Windows-specific tools and technologies (NTFS, VSS, ReFS, Windows Management Framework, NTLM authentication) are referenced throughout, and there are no Linux-specific instructions, requirements, or examples. The matrix and narrative consistently list Windows scenarios first or exclusively.
Recommendations:
- Add explicit support matrix rows for native Linux workloads (not just as VMs), including supported distributions, file systems, and backup/recovery capabilities.
- Provide Linux-specific requirements, limitations, and supported features (e.g., file-level backup, application-aware backup, snapshot mechanisms like LVM or filesystem freeze).
- Include Linux examples and scenarios alongside Windows ones, ensuring parity in documentation structure and detail.
- Reference Linux tools and patterns (e.g., ext4, XFS, LVM, rsync, SSH-based authentication) where relevant.
- Clarify any feature gaps or differences between Windows and Linux support, and provide guidance or workarounds for Linux users.
- Avoid listing only Windows-specific technologies (NTFS, VSS, ReFS) without mentioning Linux equivalents or alternatives.
