Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several areas. Data ingestion into Azure Storage is described primarily via PowerShell, AzCopy, and the Azure Storage SDK, with no mention of Linux-native tools or CLI usage. Windows-centric tools and patterns (PowerShell, .NET SDK) are mentioned before or instead of Linux equivalents. There are no explicit Linux or bash examples for common tasks like uploading data, and the documentation does not provide parity in guidance for Linux users. The focus on PowerShell and Windows tools may make it harder for Linux users to follow or replicate the steps.
Recommendations
  • Include Linux/bash examples for data ingestion, such as using Azure CLI (az storage), curl, or Python SDK.
  • Mention Linux-native tools (e.g., hdfs dfs, distcp, rsync) for file operations alongside Windows tools.
  • Provide explicit instructions for both Windows and Linux environments, especially for common tasks like uploading data.
  • List cross-platform tools first, or present Windows and Linux options side-by-side.
  • Clarify when a tool or SDK is cross-platform, and provide links to Linux installation and usage guides.
