Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation demonstrates Windows bias by exclusively referencing the creation of a Windows Server VM when describing how to connect to the HBase cluster, without mentioning or providing instructions for creating a Linux VM. This is notable given that the HBase cluster itself is Linux-based. Additionally, the example for verifying connectivity uses the generic 'ping' command, but the VM creation instructions are Windows-specific, potentially leading Linux users to feel unsupported.
Recommendations
  • Add parallel instructions and links for creating a Linux VM in Azure, such as referencing the 'Create a Virtual Machine Running Linux' documentation.
  • Explicitly state that either Windows or Linux VMs can be used for connecting to the HBase cluster, and provide guidance for both.
  • Ensure that command-line examples (e.g., ping, curl) are shown in the context of both Windows and Linux environments, clarifying any differences.
  • Review other sections for similar platform-specific references and update them to maintain parity.
