Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
⚠️ windows_tools
⚠️ powershell_heavy
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All examples, references, and linked resources are focused on Windows-based SQL Server deployments. There are no instructions, examples, or considerations for Linux-based SQL Server, despite its support. Windows-specific tools (e.g., Task Manager, PowerShell scripts) are referenced exclusively, and all high availability/disaster recovery patterns are described in the context of Windows. Linux equivalents are not mentioned or provided.
Recommendations:
  • Include explicit guidance and examples for SQL Server running on Linux, including supported BCDR technologies and any Azure Site Recovery considerations.
  • Provide Linux-specific instructions for monitoring (e.g., using iostat, vmstat, or other Linux tools instead of Task Manager).
  • Offer PowerShell alternatives or equivalent Bash/shell scripts for automation steps, or clarify if only Windows is supported.
  • Reference and link to documentation for SQL Server on Linux high availability and disaster recovery options.
  • Clearly state any limitations or lack of support for Linux scenarios, if applicable, to avoid confusion.
  • Balance the order of presentation so that Linux and Windows are treated equally where both are supported.
