Summary
The documentation is heavily oriented toward Windows environments, requiring a Windows workstation and Microsoft Excel for Power Query integration. All instructions and prerequisites assume Windows OS and Microsoft Office, with no mention of Linux or cross-platform alternatives for connecting to HDInsight from non-Windows systems. The tools and workflows described (Excel, Power Query) are Windows-centric, and there are no examples or guidance for Linux users.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent instructions for Linux users, such as using LibreOffice Calc or other open-source spreadsheet tools, if possible.
- Include examples of connecting to HDInsight from Linux using alternative BI tools (e.g., Apache Zeppelin, Jupyter Notebooks, or Python libraries like pandas).
- Clearly state platform limitations and suggest cross-platform or web-based alternatives where available.
- Add a section comparing Windows and Linux approaches for accessing HDInsight data, highlighting any differences and available tooling.
- Reference documentation for Linux-compatible BI workflows, such as connecting to HDInsight via ODBC/JDBC from Linux.
