Windows First
Missing Linux Example
Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Hyper-V, a Windows-centric virtualization platform, and does not provide examples or guidance for Linux-based hypervisors (such as KVM or Xen) or Linux-specific migration scenarios. All instructions, terminology, and examples assume a Windows/Hyper-V environment, with no mention of Linux tools, commands, or migration patterns. Additionally, licensing and cost options are described with a Windows-first perspective (e.g., Azure Hybrid Benefit for Windows Server), with only a brief mention of Enterprise Linux subscriptions (RHEL and SLES) as an afterthought.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent tutorials and examples for assessing Linux-based VMs from common Linux hypervisors (e.g., KVM, Xen, VirtualBox) for migration to Azure.
- Include Linux-specific discovery and assessment steps, such as using Linux tools or command-line utilities.
- Provide parity in cost estimation examples, including details for Linux licensing and Azure Hybrid Benefit for Linux, with equal prominence as Windows.
- Ensure screenshots and UI walkthroughs are applicable to both Windows and Linux environments, or clearly indicate differences.
- Mention and link to documentation for VMware and other non-Windows platforms where relevant, to provide a more balanced cross-platform perspective.
