Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on using Data Lake Tools for Visual Studio, a Windows-only tool, for interacting with Azure HDInsight and running Hive queries. All instructions, screenshots, and workflows are centered around Visual Studio, with no mention of Linux-based alternatives or cross-platform tools. Windows tools and patterns are presented exclusively, and there are no examples or guidance for Linux users or those using non-Windows environments.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent instructions for connecting to HDInsight and running Hive queries using cross-platform tools such as VS Code, Apache Zeppelin, Jupyter Notebooks, or command-line interfaces (e.g., SSH, Beeline, Hive CLI).
  • Include examples and screenshots for Linux and macOS environments, showing how to perform similar tasks without Visual Studio.
  • Mention and link to Linux-friendly tools (e.g., Azure CLI, HDInsight SDK for Python, Hive CLI) alongside Visual Studio, and provide parity in documentation structure.
  • Clarify in the prerequisites and introduction that the described workflow is Windows-specific, and direct Linux/macOS users to alternative documentation.
  • Provide a comparison table of available tools for different operating systems, highlighting feature parity and limitations.
