Summary
The documentation is heavily Windows-centric, providing only instructions and screenshots for Windows tools such as ODBC Data Source Administrator and Excel. There are no examples or guidance for Linux or cross-platform alternatives, and all steps assume a Windows environment. The use of Microsoft Hive ODBC driver and Excel further reinforces the Windows bias, with no mention of equivalent Linux workflows or tools.
Recommendations
  • Add instructions for configuring ODBC data sources on Linux (e.g., using unixODBC and relevant configuration files).
  • Provide examples of connecting to Hive from Excel on macOS, or suggest alternative BI tools available on Linux.
  • Include steps for using open-source ODBC drivers (such as Simba or unixODBC) on Linux and macOS.
  • Mention and document how to import Hive data into LibreOffice Calc or other cross-platform spreadsheet applications.
  • Clearly indicate platform-specific limitations and provide parity where possible for non-Windows users.
