Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation provides both Linux (Bash/Python) and Windows (PowerShell) examples for configuring the application health extension response, but there is a mild Windows bias in several areas. PowerShell examples are consistently present and sometimes shown before or alongside Linux equivalents. Windows-specific extension types (ApplicationHealthWindows) are used in code samples and REST payloads, sometimes before Linux equivalents. The REST and PowerShell sections use Windows extension types by default, and PowerShell is given equal or greater prominence than Bash. However, Linux parity is generally maintained, and CLI/Bash examples are present for all major workflows.
Recommendations
  • When showing extension type in JSON or REST samples, use ApplicationHealthLinux as the default or show both Linux and Windows variants.
  • In REST API examples, clarify that both ApplicationHealthLinux and ApplicationHealthWindows are valid, and provide explicit Linux-focused sample payloads.
  • Ensure Bash/Python examples are shown before or at least equally with PowerShell, especially in sections where Linux is the more common platform.
  • Add a note clarifying that all workflows are supported on both Linux and Windows VMSS, and highlight any platform-specific differences if present.
  • Consider adding more troubleshooting examples for Linux environments (e.g., systemd, firewall configuration) to match the PowerShell troubleshooting depth.
