Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_tools
⚠️ missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation exclusively uses Azure SQL Database and T-SQL (SQL Server) for control tables and stored procedures, with no mention of Linux-friendly or cross-platform alternatives such as PostgreSQL, MySQL, or open-source database engines. All example code is in T-SQL, which is most commonly associated with Windows environments. There are no examples or guidance for users who may wish to use Linux-based databases or tools.
Recommendations:
  • Provide alternative examples using open-source databases such as PostgreSQL or MySQL, including equivalent table and stored procedure creation scripts.
  • Clarify whether Azure Data Factory supports control tables and stored procedures in non-SQL Server databases, and provide guidance for those scenarios.
  • Include a note or section on how to adapt the templates for users who do not use Azure SQL Database, especially those on Linux-based platforms.
  • If possible, provide shell (bash) or cross-platform command-line examples for interacting with the control tables, not just T-SQL.
  • Mention any limitations or requirements for using non-Windows, non-SQL Server environments with these templates.
