Summary:
The documentation exhibits a mild Windows bias. Windows-related FQDNs and services (e.g., WindowsUpdate, login.windows.net, login.microsoftonline.com) are listed before Linux equivalents. There is a lack of explicit Linux-focused examples or guidance, and no mention of Linux-specific tools or patterns. While Ubuntu update endpoints are included, the overall framing and examples prioritize Windows services and tools, with no parity in Linux-specific configuration or troubleshooting steps.
Recommendations:
- Provide explicit Linux-focused examples, such as referencing Linux package update endpoints (e.g., security.ubuntu.com, mirrors for other distributions) alongside WindowsUpdate.
- List Linux and Windows dependencies together, or alternate their order to avoid always placing Windows first.
- Include troubleshooting or configuration steps relevant to Linux users, such as using SSH from Linux/macOS terminals, or configuring iptables/firewalld if relevant.
- Mention Linux authentication endpoints or scenarios, if applicable, alongside Windows login endpoints.
- Clarify that the guidance applies equally to both Windows and Linux-based HDInsight clusters, and call out any differences in requirements.
