Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on using Data Lake Tools for Visual Studio, a Windows-only tool, to interact with Azure HDInsight and Apache Hadoop. All instructions, screenshots, and workflows are centered around Visual Studio on Windows, with no mention of Linux/macOS alternatives or equivalent tooling. There are no examples or guidance for users on non-Windows platforms, and Windows tools are implicitly presented as the default or only option.
Recommendations
- Add sections describing how to connect to HDInsight clusters and run Hive queries using cross-platform tools such as VS Code, command-line interfaces (Azure CLI, SSH, Beeline, Hive CLI), or web-based interfaces.
- Provide Linux/macOS-specific instructions for cluster management, job submission, and data exploration, including relevant screenshots and step-by-step guides.
- Mention and link to alternative tools (e.g., Apache Hue, Jupyter Notebooks, HDInsight Ambari Web UI) that are accessible from non-Windows platforms.
- Clearly state the platform limitations of Data Lake Tools for Visual Studio and direct users to parity solutions for Linux/macOS.
- Ensure that examples and workflows are presented in a platform-neutral way, or provide parallel examples for both Windows and Linux/macOS users.
