Summary
The documentation demonstrates a strong Windows and PowerShell bias. All scripting and automation examples are provided exclusively in PowerShell, with no mention of Bash, Azure CLI, or cross-platform alternatives. The use of Windows-centric tools such as SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) is assumed for verification steps. There is no guidance for users on Linux or macOS, and no examples using platform-agnostic tools or commands. The documentation also references PowerShell modules and Azure Automation runbooks in PowerShell without offering equivalent instructions for other environments.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent examples using Azure CLI (az) commands for starting, stopping, and monitoring Azure-SSIS IR, as Azure CLI is cross-platform.
- Include Bash script examples for automation tasks, especially for scheduling via cron or using Azure CLI in Linux/macOS environments.
- Mention and provide steps for using Data Factory REST APIs directly with curl or other HTTP clients, which are platform-neutral.
- For verification steps, suggest alternatives to SQL Server Management Studio, such as Azure Data Studio (cross-platform) or querying via sqlcmd.
- Clarify in prerequisites and throughout the guide that all steps can be performed from Linux/macOS using Azure CLI and REST APIs, not just from Windows/PowerShell.
- Where PowerShell is referenced, explicitly note that it is available cross-platform, but also provide syntax for native shells (Bash, zsh, etc.) where possible.
