Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several areas: it provides PowerShell cmdlet examples (Set-AzDataFactoryV2LinkedService, New-AzDataFactoryV2LinkedServiceEncryptedCredential) without Linux or cross-platform CLI alternatives, references Windows-specific technologies like DPAPI for credential encryption, and discusses Windows Firewall in detail while omitting Linux firewall equivalents (e.g., iptables, firewalld). The documentation also assumes the use of Windows tools and patterns for self-hosted integration runtime setup and credential management, with no mention of Linux-based deployment or configuration steps.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent examples using Azure CLI and/or REST API for credential management and linked service setup, which are cross-platform.
  • Document Linux-compatible methods for encrypting and storing credentials locally, including alternatives to DPAPI (e.g., using GnuPG, OpenSSL, or Azure Key Vault integration on Linux).
  • Include Linux firewall configuration guidance (e.g., iptables, firewalld, ufw) alongside Windows Firewall instructions.
  • Clarify whether the self-hosted integration runtime can be installed and operated on Linux, and if so, provide setup and security instructions for Linux environments.
  • Ensure that all port and network configuration instructions are applicable to both Windows and Linux, or highlight differences where necessary.
