Summary
The documentation is generally cross-platform and covers both Linux and Windows scenarios for SAP workloads on Azure. However, there are subtle signs of Windows bias: Windows terminology (VHD, SMB, Storage Spaces) is used as the default, with Linux equivalents (LVM, NFS) mentioned later or in parentheses. Some sections, such as striping, reference Windows tools (Storage Spaces) before Linux tools (LVM), and example links for high availability scenarios list Windows before Linux. There is also a tendency to mention Windows-specific features or patterns first, with Linux details following. No critical Linux omissions are present, but the ordering and terminology may create friction for Linux users.
Recommendations
- Present Linux and Windows examples and terminology side-by-side, or alternate which is listed first.
- Explicitly mention Linux tools (e.g., LVM) before or alongside Windows tools (e.g., Storage Spaces) in relevant sections.
- Ensure that example links and scenario lists alternate or balance Windows and Linux coverage.
- Where possible, provide command-line or configuration examples for both platforms, not just Windows/Powershell.
- Review terminology to avoid defaulting to Windows-centric language (e.g., 'VHD' vs. 'disk image').
