Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a strong Windows bias: all detailed workload examples, backup scenarios, and recovery options are focused on Windows operating systems and Microsoft applications. Linux is only mentioned as a VM guest, with minimal detail and no parity in backup/recovery features (e.g., only entire VM backup, no file-level restore). Windows-specific tools and patterns (NTFS, VSS, ReFS, deduplication, system state, bare metal recovery) are referenced throughout, with no Linux equivalents or alternatives described.
Recommendations:
- Provide Linux-specific backup and recovery examples, including supported filesystems, backup types (e.g., file-level, application-aware), and restore options.
- Clarify limitations and feature gaps for Linux workloads, and offer guidance or workarounds where possible.
- Mention Linux tools or patterns (e.g., LVM snapshots, ext4/xfs support, Linux backup agents) where relevant.
- Ensure Linux support is described with the same level of detail as Windows, including supported distributions, backup scenarios, and recovery procedures.
- If certain features are Windows-only, explicitly state this and suggest alternative approaches for Linux environments.
