Summary
The documentation demonstrates a notable Windows bias: it exclusively uses Windows Server as the SQL backend, references SQL Server Management Studio (a Windows-only tool) for client connectivity, and does not mention or provide examples for Linux-based SQL Server VMs or cross-platform SQL clients. No Linux or macOS alternatives are discussed for either the backend or client connection steps.
Recommendations
  • Include instructions for deploying SQL Server on Linux VMs (e.g., Ubuntu) using Azure's supported images.
  • Mention and provide examples for connecting to the SQL server using cross-platform SQL clients such as Azure Data Studio, DBeaver, or sqlcmd.
  • Explicitly state that both Windows and Linux VMs are supported as backend targets for Application Gateway.
  • Add screenshots and step-by-step guidance for Linux-based deployment and connection scenarios.
  • List prerequisites and client options for macOS and Linux users.
