Bias Analysis
Bias Types:

windows_first
⚠️
missing_linux_example

windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows-centric workloads (e.g., Hyper-V, Windows-hosted web apps), mentioning Windows tools and environments (such as ASP.NET and SQL Server) without equivalent Linux examples, and omitting explicit guidance or examples for Linux servers, databases, or web applications. Linux migration scenarios and tools are not addressed, and the only web app migration example is for 'Web apps hosted on Windows in a VMware environment.'
Recommendations:
- Add explicit examples and guidance for migrating Linux-based servers (e.g., Ubuntu, CentOS) and workloads, including discovery, assessment, and migration steps.
- Include Linux database migration scenarios (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL) and reference relevant tools or Azure services.
- Provide examples for migrating Linux-hosted web applications (e.g., Apache, Nginx, Node.js, Python) to Azure App Service or Azure Kubernetes Service.
- Ensure that tables and feature lists mention both Windows and Linux workloads where applicable, and avoid language that implies Windows is the default or only supported platform.
- Reference Linux-compatible tools and scripts, and provide parity in documentation for both Windows and Linux environments.
