Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation provides cross-platform instructions for most steps, using SSH, Bash, and Linux tools throughout. However, in the 'Upload data to an HDInsight cluster' section, the instructions say 'open a command prompt' before using scp, which may imply a Windows-first approach. Additionally, the 'Clean up resources' section mentions deleting clusters using 'your browser, PowerShell, or the Azure CLI', listing PowerShell (a Windows tool) before Azure CLI, which is more cross-platform. No explicit PowerShell-only examples or Windows-only tools are used in the main workflow, and Linux tools are well represented.
Recommendations
  • Replace 'open a command prompt' with 'open a terminal' to be platform-neutral.
  • In the clean-up section, list Azure CLI before PowerShell, or mention both together as cross-platform options.
  • Ensure that all references to command-line tools use terminology that applies to both Windows and Linux (e.g., 'terminal' instead of 'command prompt').
  • If PowerShell examples are provided, also provide Bash/Linux equivalents side-by-side.
