Summary
The documentation page consistently references AzCopy as the canonical tool for data transfer and cost estimation, but does not mention or provide examples for Linux-native alternatives (such as Azure CLI, REST API via curl, or third-party tools). There are no command-line examples or usage patterns shown for Linux environments, and the documentation does not address cross-platform usage or parity, implicitly favoring Windows tooling and workflows.
Recommendations
- Include examples using Azure CLI and REST API (e.g., with curl) for cost estimation and data operations, showing commands that work natively on Linux and macOS.
- Explicitly mention that AzCopy is cross-platform and provide installation and usage instructions for Linux and macOS, not just Windows.
- Add references to other popular Linux tools (such as rclone) that can interact with Azure Blob Storage, and discuss their cost implications.
- Ensure that any sample scripts or automation patterns are shown in both PowerShell and Bash (or POSIX shell) formats.
- Add a section or note clarifying platform compatibility for all recommended utilities and workflows.
