Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
⚠️ windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All virtual machine creation steps use Windows Server images, and the only automation example for configuring IIS uses Azure PowerShell with Windows-specific commands. There are no examples or instructions for deploying or testing with Linux VMs, nor are there Bash/CLI or Linux-native automation alternatives. The documentation assumes the use of Windows tools and patterns throughout, with no parity for Linux users.
Recommendations:
  • Provide parallel instructions for creating Linux-based VMs (e.g., Ubuntu) in both the spoke and on-premises networks.
  • Include examples for installing and configuring a web server (e.g., Apache or Nginx) on a Linux VM using Azure CLI and Bash scripts.
  • Offer automation examples using Azure CLI (az commands) alongside or instead of PowerShell, especially for tasks like installing software or configuring VMs.
  • When demonstrating remote access, mention SSH for Linux VMs in addition to RDP for Windows.
  • Ensure that all steps referencing Windows-specific tools or features have Linux equivalents or alternatives.
  • Rephrase sections that refer to Windows tools or patterns as the default, and present Linux options with equal prominence.
