Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types

missing_linux_example
Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a bias towards Windows by exclusively deploying Windows Server virtual machines in the example environment and not mentioning or providing Linux VM equivalents. All deployment and management instructions are cross-platform (Azure CLI and PowerShell), but the infrastructure created is Windows-centric, which may alienate Linux users or suggest that Windows is the default or preferred OS for such scenarios.
Recommendations
  • Include examples that deploy both Windows and Linux virtual machines, or provide an option to choose the OS type in the Bicep template.
  • Explicitly mention that Linux VMs can be used in place of Windows VMs and provide sample parameters or code snippets for Linux VM deployment.
  • Clarify that the jump box and server roles are not limited to Windows and can be fulfilled by Linux VMs.
  • Add a note or section discussing considerations for Linux environments, such as SSH access and Linux-specific configuration steps.
