Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ windows_heavy
Summary:
The documentation page lists supported VM SKUs for Azure Policy, presenting a long, detailed enumeration of Windows-based images and SKUs before Linux distributions. The Windows section is much more extensive and appears first, while Linux distributions are listed only after all Windows options, with less detail and fewer variants. There are no Linux-specific examples or parity in the level of detail provided.
Recommendations:
  • Reorder the table or split it into separate sections for Windows and Linux, or alternate between Windows and Linux entries to avoid the impression of prioritizing Windows.
  • Provide equal detail for Linux distributions, including variants, special configurations, and notes where applicable.
  • Add explicit mention of support for Linux in the introductory text, not just as a list at the end.
  • If there are any limitations or special considerations for Linux (as there is for CentOS), provide similar notes for Windows where relevant.
  • Consider including example policy assignments or usage scenarios for both Windows and Linux VMs to ensure parity.
