Summary
The documentation generally aims for cross-platform coverage but exhibits some Windows bias. Windows-specific tools (Visual Studio, PowerShell, SSIS) are mentioned as primary options, sometimes before or more prominently than Linux equivalents. PowerShell is listed as a method for running Hive queries, but there is no equivalent Bash or Linux shell example. Integration with Windows-centric tools like SQL Server Integration Services is described in detail, while Linux-native scheduling or orchestration tools (other than Oozie) are not highlighted. In some cases, Windows is listed first or exclusively in client OS support.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Linux shell (Bash) and macOS command-line examples for running Hive queries, especially where PowerShell is mentioned.
  • Ensure parity in tool recommendations: for every Windows tool (e.g., Visual Studio, PowerShell), mention and provide equal detail for cross-platform or Linux-native alternatives (e.g., IntelliJ IDEA, VS Code, Bash scripts).
  • When listing client operating systems, avoid putting Windows first unless there is a technical reason; use alphabetical or neutral ordering.
  • Expand the scheduling section to include Linux-native options such as cron, Airflow, or other workflow tools commonly used in Linux environments.
  • Where possible, provide code snippets or walkthroughs that are platform-agnostic or include both Windows and Linux/macOS variants.
