Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. In the 'How to set ACLs' section, Windows-centric tools (Azure Storage Explorer, Azure portal, PowerShell) are listed before cross-platform or Linux-native tools (Azure CLI, REST API). PowerShell is given its own example, and Storage Explorer is highlighted as a primary management tool, both of which are more commonly used on Windows. There is no mention of Linux shell commands (e.g., setfacl, getfacl) or native POSIX ACL management tools, nor are there examples using Linux command-line utilities. The documentation assumes Azure CLI as the main cross-platform command-line tool, but does not provide parity with Linux-specific workflows or examples.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Linux/POSIX command-line examples for managing ACLs, such as using setfacl/getfacl on mounted Data Lake Storage via NFS or similar interfaces.
  • Include references to Linux-native tools and workflows for ACL management, especially for users working in Linux environments or with Hadoop/HDFS.
  • Reorder the 'How to set ACLs' table to present cross-platform tools (Azure CLI, REST API) before Windows-centric tools (PowerShell, Storage Explorer).
  • Provide guidance or links for Linux users on integrating Azure Data Lake Storage with Linux file systems and managing ACLs using familiar Linux commands.
  • Clarify which tools are cross-platform and which are Windows-specific, helping users choose the best tool for their environment.
