Sounds a little interesting as well as a little scary. What version of SQL are you laying down, 2016 as a guess/hope?
Can you use SSMS to connect to it, guessing so? Can you make backups from that data and restore those backups? Does this support multiple instances and if so how to you restart an instance in Ununtu? It is a killer feature in Windows to be able to restart a specific instance. Now are services like Reporting services an SSIS, SSAS available there as well? Sorry for all the questions but overloaded in a migration job that is ending in a week or so.
