Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways. Windows-specific tools and patterns (such as Windows Event Forwarding, PowerShell, and .NET) are mentioned more frequently and often before their Linux equivalents. Some sections, such as 'On-premises Windows log collection', provide detailed Windows solutions, while Linux solutions are grouped separately and sometimes less detailed. PowerShell is listed as a method for custom log collection, with no equivalent Linux scripting example. In some tables, Windows tools or methods are listed as the default or only option, and Linux alternatives are less emphasized or missing.
Recommendations
- Ensure Linux tools and patterns (e.g., Bash scripts, Linux-native log collectors) are presented alongside Windows examples, not after or separately.
- Provide equivalent Linux scripting examples (e.g., Bash, Python) wherever PowerShell is mentioned.
- When listing solutions, alternate the order of Windows and Linux options, or present them together to avoid 'Windows first' bias.
- Expand Linux sections to match the detail and breadth of Windows sections, including common Linux challenges and solutions.
- Explicitly mention Linux alternatives for every Windows tool or pattern referenced (e.g., for Windows Event Forwarding, mention syslog forwarding).
- Review all tables and solution lists to ensure Linux options are not missing or underrepresented.
