Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. While it mentions both Azure PowerShell and Azure CLI for configuring data persistence, the PowerShell instructions and references are presented before the CLI ones, and the CLI section is less detailed. There are no explicit Linux-specific examples or guidance, and the PowerShell environment is highlighted (including in prerequisites and Cloud Shell references) without equivalent emphasis on Linux-native tools or scripting. No Linux shell (bash) or OS-specific instructions/examples are provided outside of Azure CLI, and no mention is made of Linux-specific considerations or troubleshooting.
Recommendations
  • Present Azure CLI (cross-platform) instructions before or alongside PowerShell instructions to avoid Windows-first ordering.
  • Add explicit bash/Linux shell script examples for common persistence management tasks, especially for automation scenarios.
  • Include notes or troubleshooting tips relevant to Linux environments (e.g., file permissions, CLI installation on Linux, integration with Linux-based automation tools).
  • Clarify that Azure CLI is cross-platform and can be used on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and provide installation links for all platforms.
  • Where PowerShell is mentioned, also mention bash or other Linux-native scripting environments as alternatives.
  • Ensure screenshots and UI walkthroughs do not assume a Windows environment (e.g., avoid PowerShell-only Cloud Shell tabs).

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.
