Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows environments, requiring a Windows workstation and Microsoft Excel. All instructions and examples are tailored to Windows and Microsoft Office products, with no mention of Linux-compatible alternatives for connecting to HDInsight or accessing Hadoop data. The prerequisites and step-by-step guides exclusively reference Windows operating systems and tools, omitting any guidance for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent instructions for Linux users, such as using LibreOffice Calc, OpenOffice, or other BI tools available on Linux to connect to HDInsight.
  • Include examples of accessing HDInsight data from Linux workstations, possibly via Python (pandas, pyodbc), R, or command-line tools.
  • Mention cross-platform alternatives to Power Query, or clarify that the described method is Windows-only and suggest Linux-compatible workflows.
  • Add a section comparing Windows and Linux approaches to connecting to HDInsight, ensuring parity in documentation.
