Summary
The documentation demonstrates Windows bias primarily through exclusive references to Windows-based tools and patterns, such as Windows Server Failover Clusters and Cloud Witness, and by linking only to Windows-specific best practices for SQL Server on Azure VMs. There are no examples or guidance for Linux-based SQL Server deployments, nor are Linux migration scenarios or high availability options mentioned. All technical links and recommendations are Windows-centric, and Linux is only briefly referenced in the context of Azure Hybrid Benefit licensing, not in migration or assessment procedures.
Recommendations
- Include examples and guidance for assessing and migrating SQL Server instances running on Linux (e.g., SQL Server on Ubuntu, RHEL, or SLES VMs).
- Add references and links to Linux-specific best practices for SQL Server on Azure VMs (e.g., /azure/azure-sql/virtual-machines/linux/).
- Describe high availability and disaster recovery options for Linux-based SQL Server deployments, such as Pacemaker clusters or Linux-based witness options.
- Ensure that when discussing features like Azure Hybrid Benefit, the documentation equally explains the process for Enterprise Linux subscriptions and not just Windows Server/SQL Server.
- Wherever Windows-specific tools or procedures are mentioned (e.g., Cloud Witness, Windows Server Failover Clusters), provide equivalent Linux alternatives or explicitly state their applicability or limitations for Linux.
- Consider adding a section or callout for users migrating SQL Server on Linux, outlining any differences or additional steps required.
