Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias in the 'Test connectivity' section by recommending the use of PSPING in Azure PowerShell to test connectivity, without providing an equivalent Linux example or tool. Windows-specific tools and patterns are mentioned exclusively and before any Linux alternatives, despite the presence of a section on Linux-based client applications elsewhere in the document.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux equivalents for connectivity testing, such as using 'nc' (netcat), 'telnet', or 'redis-cli' with appropriate flags.
  • When introducing troubleshooting steps, present both Windows and Linux options side-by-side, or at least mention Linux alternatives immediately after Windows examples.
  • Avoid recommending Windows-only tools (like PSPING) without noting cross-platform alternatives.
  • Include explicit Linux command-line examples for common troubleshooting tasks, especially in sections where Windows tools are referenced.
  • Review other sections to ensure parity in tool recommendations and troubleshooting steps for both platforms.
