Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias by referencing Windows-based Informix deployments first ("IBM Informix for Windows running in Azure virtualization"), mentioning Windows authentication (Kerberos) and linking to Windows Server documentation, and omitting Linux-specific examples, tools, or authentication patterns. There are no examples or guidance for Linux-based Informix servers, Linux authentication mechanisms, or Linux-specific deployment scenarios.
Recommendations
- Add explicit references and examples for connecting to Informix databases running on Linux, including typical Linux hostnames and authentication methods.
- Include links to Linux authentication documentation (such as PAM, LDAP, or Kerberos on Linux) alongside Windows references.
- Provide screenshots or configuration examples from Linux environments (e.g., Ubuntu, Red Hat) in addition to Windows.
- Clarify that the connector works with both Windows and Linux Informix servers, and describe any platform-specific considerations.
- Mention Linux-based deployment options in Azure (e.g., Informix on Linux VMs) and provide parity in instructions.
