Summary:
The documentation page is largely neutral and focused on HDInsight versions and support policies, with most technical details referencing Ubuntu as the cluster OS. However, in the 'Next steps' section, the link 'Work in Apache Hadoop on HDInsight from a Windows PC' is called out specifically, while no equivalent Linux or cross-platform guidance is highlighted. Additionally, in the introduction, deployment methods are listed as 'Azure portal and other deployment methods like PowerShell, CLI and the .NET SDK', with PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) mentioned before the cross-platform CLI, which may suggest a subtle Windows-first bias.
Recommendations:
- Add a 'Work in Apache Hadoop on HDInsight from a Linux PC' or 'Work in Apache Hadoop on HDInsight from macOS/Linux' link in the 'Next steps' section to provide parity for non-Windows users.
- When listing deployment methods, mention cross-platform tools (such as Azure CLI) before or alongside PowerShell to avoid implying a Windows-first workflow.
- If there are any platform-specific tools or guides, ensure that both Windows and Linux (and optionally macOS) equivalents are referenced and linked with equal prominence.
- Consider a general 'Accessing HDInsight from your local machine' guide that covers Windows, Linux, and macOS, rather than platform-specific links.
