Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a notable Windows bias by focusing exclusively on connecting to Hive via Excel and the Microsoft Hive ODBC driver, both of which are Windows-centric tools. All example workflows and screenshots are based on Excel, with no mention of Linux/macOS alternatives (such as using Beeline, DBeaver, or other cross-platform database clients). The instructions for data import and policy testing are tailored for Windows environments, and Linux/macOS users are not provided with equivalent steps or guidance.
Recommendations
  • Add instructions and examples for connecting to Hive from Linux/macOS using common tools such as Beeline, DBeaver, or SquirrelSQL.
  • Include sample workflows for testing Ranger policies using command-line Hive clients (e.g., Beeline or Hive CLI) on Linux/macOS.
  • Provide parity in screenshots and step-by-step guides for at least one cross-platform tool.
  • Clarify in prerequisites and throughout the document which steps are Windows-specific, and offer alternatives for other platforms.
