Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing Windows-based Informix deployments first ("IBM Informix for Windows running in Azure virtualization"), mentioning Windows authentication (Kerberos in Windows Server) as the only advanced authentication example, and linking exclusively to Windows Server documentation for Kerberos. There are no Linux-specific examples, tools, or authentication patterns provided, nor are Linux deployments or authentication mechanisms discussed.
Recommendations
- Add explicit examples and guidance for connecting to Informix databases running on Linux, including typical connection strings and deployment scenarios.
- Include references to Linux authentication mechanisms (such as Kerberos on Linux, PAM, or other relevant methods) and link to Linux documentation for Kerberos.
- Present platform-neutral language when describing Informix deployments (e.g., "Informix running on Windows or Linux") and avoid mentioning Windows first.
- Provide screenshots or walkthroughs that show Linux-based Informix server configurations and connections.
- Clarify that the connector works with Informix on both Windows and Linux, and address any platform-specific considerations.
