Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by recommending tools (LightIngest) that are Windows-only, not providing Linux alternatives or examples, and generally assuming a Windows environment for ingestion tasks. While AzCopy is cross-platform, the documentation does not clarify or provide Linux-specific usage instructions. There are no Linux command-line examples or explicit mentions of Linux-compatible ingestion workflows.
Recommendations
  • For LightIngest, explicitly state that it is Windows-only and suggest alternative ingestion methods for Linux environments, such as using Azure Data Explorer's ingestion REST API, Azure CLI, or Python SDK.
  • For AzCopy, include explicit Linux installation and usage instructions, with example commands for Linux shells.
  • Wherever scripts or tools are referenced, clarify their OS compatibility and provide parallel instructions or links for both Windows and Linux users.
  • Add a section or callout addressing Linux users, summarizing supported ingestion tools and methods for non-Windows environments.
  • Ensure that all code snippets and instructions are provided for both PowerShell/Windows CMD and Bash/Linux shells where applicable.
