Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation is intended for both Windows and Linux virtual machines, as stated at the top. Most command-line examples (Azure CLI, API, PowerShell) are generic and applicable to both OS types. However, the ARM template section only provides a Windows VM example, with no Linux equivalent. Additionally, the ARM template parameters and image references are exclusively for Windows Server, and the Windows image options are listed without mention of Linux images. This creates a subtle Windows bias, especially for users seeking ARM template guidance for Linux VMs.
Recommendations
  • Add an ARM template example for a Linux VM (e.g., Ubuntu or CentOS), including relevant parameters and image references.
  • In the ARM template section, clarify how to modify the template for Linux VMs, such as changing the publisher, offer, and SKU.
  • Consider listing both Windows and Linux image options in the ARM template parameters.
  • Ensure that instructions and examples consistently mention both Windows and Linux where applicable.
