Summary
The documentation page shows evidence of Windows bias, particularly in the configuration settings for HDInsight Spark.NET, where paths and tools are specified using Windows conventions (e.g., C:\Program Files\7-Zip, D:\winutils, C:\Program Files\Java). There is no mention of Linux equivalents, nor are Linux paths or tools provided as examples. The settings table lists Windows paths first and exclusively, and does not offer parity for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux equivalents for all configuration paths and tools, such as /usr/bin/7z, /usr/local/hadoop, /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64, etc.
  • Include examples and instructions for both Windows and Linux environments, especially for environment variables and tool locations.
  • Explicitly state OS-specific requirements and provide guidance for Linux users where settings or tools differ.
  • Where possible, use cross-platform conventions or note differences in configuration between Windows and Linux.
  • Add a section or table column indicating the OS applicability of each setting.
