Windows First Powershell Heavy Missing Linux Example
Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Azure PowerShell examples and references, which are most commonly used on Windows. While Azure CLI is mentioned (which is cross-platform), the PowerShell example is given equal prominence, and there are no explicit Linux-specific instructions, screenshots, or terminal examples. The portal instructions and screenshots are also Windows-centric, with no mention of Linux desktop environments or terminal usage. There is no guidance for Linux users regarding prerequisites, environment setup, or troubleshooting.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Linux terminal examples, such as Bash commands and screenshots from Linux environments.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI is cross-platform and provide instructions for installing and using it on Linux.
  • Deprioritize or supplement PowerShell examples with Bash equivalents, especially for tasks that can be performed with Azure CLI.
  • Include troubleshooting steps or notes relevant to Linux users (e.g., file permissions, environment variables).
  • Ensure screenshots and UI references are not Windows-specific, or provide alternative views for Linux users where relevant.

Powershell Heavy 🔧 Windows Tools Missing Linux Example Windows First
Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively referencing PowerShell cmdlets for management tasks such as rebooting and scheduling updates. No examples or instructions are provided for Linux users (e.g., Bash, Azure CLI, or REST API), and Windows/PowerShell tooling is mentioned first and exclusively in relevant sections. This limits accessibility and parity for users on Linux or macOS platforms.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent Azure CLI commands for all management tasks (reboot, flush, schedule updates) alongside PowerShell examples.
  • Include Bash shell examples and REST API usage where applicable.
  • Explicitly mention cross-platform support and clarify which tools work on Linux/macOS.
  • Reorder sections or provide parallel instructions so that Linux-friendly tools (Azure CLI, REST API) are presented alongside or before Windows/PowerShell tools.
  • Provide links to official Azure CLI documentation for Redis management.

🔧 Windows Tools Powershell Heavy Windows First
Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by providing upgrade instructions using Windows-centric tools such as PowerShell and the Azure portal (which is most commonly accessed from Windows environments). The PowerShell example is given explicitly, and there are no equivalent Linux shell (bash) or cross-platform scripting examples. The CLI examples use Azure CLI, which is cross-platform, but the presence of PowerShell instructions and the lack of Linux-specific guidance or parity in examples suggest a bias towards Windows users. Additionally, the documentation refers to the Azure portal UI navigation, which is more familiar to Windows users, and does not mention Linux desktop alternatives or command-line-only workflows.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux shell (bash) examples for upgrading Redis, especially using Azure CLI from a Linux terminal.
  • Include instructions for using cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI) as the primary example, and move PowerShell examples to a dedicated section for Windows users.
  • Explicitly mention that Azure CLI commands work on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and provide sample commands for Linux environments.
  • Consider adding screenshots or descriptions for Linux desktop environments if UI navigation is relevant.
  • Ensure that any references to tools or workflows are presented in a platform-neutral way, or provide parallel instructions for both Windows and Linux users.

Powershell Heavy Windows First 🔧 Windows Tools
Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. PowerShell is consistently presented as a primary tool for scaling operations, with detailed examples and references. In most sections, PowerShell instructions precede Azure CLI instructions, and the documentation refers to PowerShell-specific cmdlets. There is no mention of Linux-native tools or shell scripting (e.g., Bash), nor are there examples using Linux command-line environments. The page assumes familiarity with PowerShell, which is traditionally a Windows-centric tool, even though Azure CLI is cross-platform.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Bash shell examples for Azure CLI commands, showing usage in Linux/macOS terminals.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI commands are cross-platform and can be run on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
  • Where PowerShell is mentioned, note that Azure PowerShell is available on Linux and macOS, but also provide Bash alternatives.
  • Consider reordering examples so that Azure CLI (the most cross-platform tool) is presented before PowerShell.
  • Add a short section or note about scaling using REST API calls or SDKs, which are platform-neutral.
  • Avoid language that implies PowerShell is the default or preferred method, and instead present both PowerShell and CLI as equal options.

There are no references to Linux-specific tools or workflows, and the document does not clarify cross-platform compatibility for the CLI or PowerShell commands.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly state that Azure CLI commands work cross-platform (Windows, Linux, macOS) and can be run in bash or other shells.
  • Provide bash (Linux shell) script examples alongside PowerShell, or clarify that the CLI examples are intended for use in any shell.
  • If PowerShell is included, clarify that PowerShell Core is available on Linux and macOS, or provide links to installation instructions.
  • Add a note or section for Linux/macOS users, highlighting any differences or confirming parity.
  • Avoid presenting PowerShell examples before or equally with CLI unless there is a clear need, as CLI is more universally accessible.

Windows First 🔧 Windows Tools Powershell Heavy
Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a mild Windows bias. Windows-specific tools (WSL, Windows Terminal) are mentioned prominently, and instructions for Windows users are detailed, including guidance to use WSL to run Linux commands. Azure PowerShell is referenced alongside Azure CLI for retrieving cache keys, and Windows terminology (e.g., 'console', 'terminal') is used more frequently than Linux equivalents. Linux installation instructions are present, but Windows users are directed to use Linux tools via WSL rather than native Windows alternatives. There are no Linux-specific troubleshooting or usage examples, and Azure PowerShell is mentioned before Azure CLI in some places.
Recommendations
  • Provide native Windows redis-cli installation instructions (e.g., via pre-built binaries or Chocolatey) rather than requiring WSL.
  • Ensure Azure CLI examples are given equal prominence to Azure PowerShell, and consider listing CLI before PowerShell for cross-platform parity.
  • Include Linux-specific troubleshooting or usage examples, such as using redis-cli in a bash shell.
  • Use neutral terminology for shells and terminals (e.g., 'command prompt', 'terminal') and clarify when instructions apply to all platforms.
  • Explicitly mention that redis-cli commands are identical across platforms, and highlight any platform-specific caveats.

Windows First Powershell Heavy Missing Linux Example
Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples for configuring active geo-replication, but does not include any Linux- or Unix-specific shell examples (e.g., Bash). PowerShell, which is traditionally associated with Windows, is given equal prominence to the Azure CLI, and there are no explicit Linux command-line or scripting examples. The documentation does not mention Linux tools or patterns, and all portal instructions are platform-agnostic, but the scripting focus is on Windows-centric tools.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Bash shell examples for Azure CLI commands, showing usage in a typical Linux environment (e.g., with environment variables, piping, or jq for output parsing).
  • Clarify that Azure CLI commands are cross-platform and can be run on Linux, macOS, and Windows, possibly providing a note or section on installing and using Azure CLI on Linux.
  • If PowerShell is included, consider mentioning PowerShell Core (pwsh) for cross-platform compatibility, or clarify when examples are for Windows PowerShell vs. PowerShell Core.
  • Include troubleshooting or scripting tips relevant to Linux users (e.g., using shell scripts to automate cache creation or monitoring).
  • Ensure parity in documentation by providing at least one end-to-end example using a Linux shell environment.
