Summary
The documentation page is generally neutral and describes HDInsight as running on Ubuntu Linux VMs. However, in the 'Next steps' section, the only platform-specific guidance is for Windows ('Work in Apache Hadoop on HDInsight from a Windows PC'), and Windows tools are referenced before any Linux equivalents. There are no Linux-specific examples or instructions, and Windows is highlighted as a client platform for interacting with HDInsight clusters.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent guidance for Linux and macOS users in the 'Next steps' section, such as 'Work in Apache Hadoop on HDInsight from a Linux PC' or 'from a Mac'.
  • Provide links to documentation or tutorials for using Linux-native tools (e.g., SSH, Hadoop CLI, Spark CLI) to interact with HDInsight clusters.
  • Ensure that platform-specific instructions are presented in parallel (e.g., 'Windows', 'Linux', 'macOS') rather than Windows-first.
  • Review other related documentation pages to ensure Linux parity in client-side tooling and examples.
