Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively referencing the on-premises data gateway, which is primarily a Windows-only tool, and by instructing users to install the Oracle client on the same computer as the gateway. There are no examples or guidance for Linux environments, nor is there mention of Linux-compatible alternatives or installation instructions. All troubleshooting and error mitigation steps assume a Windows context (e.g., service names, installation patterns).
Recommendations
  • Include explicit instructions for connecting to Oracle Database from Linux environments, such as using self-hosted integration runtimes or other Linux-compatible gateways.
  • Provide Linux-specific installation steps for the Oracle client and clarify whether the gateway can be run on Linux (or note its limitations).
  • Add troubleshooting guidance relevant to Linux systems, including service management and common errors.
  • Mention Linux alternatives or workarounds early in the prerequisites section, not only after Windows instructions.
  • Ensure parity in examples by showing both Windows and Linux command-line or configuration steps where applicable.
