Summary:
The documentation is heavily focused on using Visual Studio and Data Lake Tools, which are Windows-only tools. All instructions, screenshots, and workflows assume the user is on Windows with Visual Studio installed. There are no examples or guidance for Linux users or for using equivalent tools on Linux. The only mention of non-Windows tooling is a brief reference to Azure PowerShell and the Azure portal, but no Linux command-line or cross-platform alternatives are provided.
Recommendations:
- Add equivalent instructions for connecting to HDInsight and running Hive queries using cross-platform tools such as VS Code, Azure CLI, or SSH.
- Provide Linux-specific examples for cluster management, job submission, and data exploration (e.g., using Hive CLI, Beeline, or Jupyter Notebooks).
- Include references to open-source or cross-platform editors (such as VS Code) and show how to use them with HDInsight.
- Clearly indicate that Data Lake Tools for Visual Studio is a Windows-only solution and suggest alternatives for Linux/macOS users.
- Add a section or links to documentation on using HDInsight from Linux environments, including command-line and scripting options.
