why does a multi-billion company like Microsoft makes a really crappy tutorial? I mean, she's using her webcam and no microphone? Zero production. Unacceptable. Be ashamed. Do better.

"Human friendly query language" = Kusto?!!
In the flow chart the "Very small data" question leads to ADX? What?!!

Can you apply AHUB to Kusto VMs? Or would that be on the OS that hosts Kusto? Thanks in advance
