Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types

missing_linux_example
Summary
The documentation page displays Windows bias primarily in the 'Customize HDInsight configs using Bootstrap' section, where only a PowerShell example using the AZ module is provided for cluster configuration, with no equivalent Linux CLI or Bash example. The PowerShell approach is presented first and exclusively, which may disadvantage Linux users or those working in non-Windows environments. Elsewhere, the documentation references SSH and Bash scripts for script actions, but the main configuration example is Windows-centric.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent examples using Azure CLI (az hdinsight ...) and Bash for cluster configuration, especially in the 'Customize HDInsight configs using Bootstrap' section.
  • Ensure that Linux-native tools and workflows (e.g., Bash scripts, Azure CLI) are presented alongside or before Windows/PowerShell examples.
  • Add explicit instructions or links for Linux users to perform the same tasks without requiring PowerShell.
  • Review other sections for subtle Windows-first language or tool references and ensure Linux parity in all examples and recommendations.
