About This Page

This page is part of the Azure documentation. It contains code examples and configuration instructions for working with Azure services.

Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ windows_tools
⚠️ missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a bias toward Windows environments by providing detailed instructions and examples for Azure PowerShell, a Windows-centric tool, and referencing PowerShell/Windows tooling before or more prominently than Linux-native alternatives. While Azure CLI is mentioned (which is cross-platform), there are no explicit Linux shell (bash) or scripting examples, and no mention of Linux-specific considerations or tools. The documentation assumes familiarity with PowerShell and does not provide parity for Linux users in terms of command-line examples or troubleshooting.
Recommendations:
  • Provide explicit bash/Linux shell examples alongside PowerShell examples, especially in sections about scripting or automation.
  • When referencing Azure CLI, include example commands that are tested and formatted for Linux/macOS terminals (e.g., with single quotes, handling of environment variables, etc.).
  • Add a section or notes on Linux-specific prerequisites or troubleshooting (e.g., file permissions, path formats, CLI installation on Linux).
  • Balance the order of presentation so that Azure CLI (cross-platform) examples appear before or alongside PowerShell examples.
  • Avoid assuming the use of Windows tools (such as PowerShell) as the default; clarify that both Windows and Linux environments are supported and provide guidance for both.

To update an existing cache, use the [Update-AzRedisEnterpriseCacheDatabase](/powershell/module/az.redisenterprisecache/update-azredisenterprisecachedatabase) command. The following example adds RDB persistence with 12 hour backup frequency to an existing Enterprise cache instance.
