Summary
The documentation page lists Microsoft tools for accessing Azure Storage, including Azure PowerShell and AzCopy, with PowerShell being Windows-only and AzCopy supporting Windows and Linux but not macOS. The tools table lists Windows-specific tools (PowerShell) and places them after cross-platform tools, but does not provide Linux/macOS-specific alternatives or parity for PowerShell. There are no explicit Linux/macOS command-line examples for storage access outside the cluster, and the documentation does not mention Linux-native tools (e.g., s3cmd, rclone) or provide parity for PowerShell functionality. However, all in-cluster examples use bash and HDFS commands, which are platform-neutral and Linux-centric.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux/macOS equivalents for Azure PowerShell tasks, such as Azure CLI or REST API commands.
- Clarify AzCopy support for macOS and update the table if support exists.
- List cross-platform tools first in the table, and clearly indicate platform limitations for each tool.
- Include examples using Linux-native tools (e.g., rclone, s3cmd) for accessing Azure Storage outside the cluster.
- Add explicit instructions or links for Linux/macOS users to perform tasks currently described only for Windows/PowerShell.
