Summary
The documentation is heavily Windows-centric, with all examples, scripts, and tool references assuming a Windows environment. Only Windows/Powershell commands and tools (e.g., .cmd, .bat, .exe, msiexec.exe, cmdkey, Azure PowerShell, Windows environment variables) are mentioned, and there are no Linux or cross-platform alternatives provided. The express custom setup options are exclusively for Windows commands and components. The documentation does not acknowledge or provide guidance for Linux-based scenarios, nor does it clarify that Azure-SSIS IR is Windows-only, which could mislead users seeking Linux support.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly state early in the documentation that Azure-SSIS IR is a Windows-based runtime and does not support Linux. This helps set expectations for cross-platform users.
  • Where possible, clarify that all examples and scripts are for Windows, and note the lack of Linux support.
  • If any future Linux support is planned, provide a roadmap or guidance for users.
  • Consider adding a section explaining why Linux examples are not provided, and link to alternatives for Linux-based data integration in Azure (e.g., Azure Data Factory Mapping Data Flows, Azure Databricks, etc.).
  • Review and update related documentation to ensure cross-platform parity is addressed, or Windows bias is clearly explained.
