Summary
The documentation shows a mild Windows bias by mentioning Azure PowerShell and the Azure portal as primary tools for cluster configuration and scaling, with no explicit mention of Linux-native command-line tools or examples (such as Bash, SSH, or Azure CLI on Linux). The workflow examples and screenshots focus on the Azure portal and PowerShell, and there are no Linux shell or script examples provided for common tasks. While the article does mention that Tez is enabled by default on Linux-based clusters, it does not provide Linux-specific operational guidance or parity in tooling examples.
Recommendations
  • Include explicit examples using Azure CLI commands in Bash or Linux shell for cluster creation and scaling, alongside or before PowerShell examples.
  • Add references or examples for managing HDInsight clusters from Linux environments, such as using SSH or Linux-native tools.
  • Balance the order of tool mentions (e.g., mention Azure CLI before or alongside PowerShell and the Azure portal).
  • Provide screenshots or walkthroughs for Linux-based workflows where applicable.
  • Clarify when instructions or features are specific to Windows or Linux, and ensure Linux users are not left out of operational guidance.
