Summary:
The documentation is heavily oriented toward Windows environments. It assumes the use of SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS), a Windows-only tool, for both installation and configuration of AzureDTExec. All command-line examples use Windows paths and DOS-style commands, with no mention of Linux or cross-platform alternatives. There is no discussion of running AzureDTExec on Linux or macOS, nor are there instructions or examples for non-Windows environments.
Recommendations:
- Clarify whether AzureDTExec is supported on Linux or macOS. If not, explicitly state this limitation.
- If cross-platform support exists or is planned, provide installation and configuration instructions for Linux and macOS, including any prerequisites and differences.
- Include command-line examples using Linux/macOS shell syntax (e.g., bash), and reference file paths and environment variables as they would appear on those systems.
- Mention any alternative tools or workflows available for non-Windows users, such as using Azure Data Factory UI, REST APIs, or Azure CLI.
- If SSMS is required and only available on Windows, suggest remote or containerized approaches for Linux/macOS users, or recommend equivalent Azure-native management tools.
