Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways. Windows-style paths and conventions (e.g., backslashes, UNC paths) are used throughout, with examples and explanations tailored to Windows file shares. References to enabling local access under Self-hosted Integration Runtime point to PowerShell commands, with no Linux equivalent or parity. Linux is mentioned only briefly (suggesting Samba installation), but no Linux-specific configuration, path examples, or troubleshooting are provided. All sample JSON and UI screenshots use Windows conventions, and there is no demonstration of Linux file system integration beyond the Samba note.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux-specific examples for file paths (e.g., /mnt/share, /home/user/data) alongside Windows examples.
- Include instructions and screenshots for configuring Linux file shares (e.g., Samba setup, permissions, mounting) in Azure Data Factory/Synapse.
- Offer Linux command-line equivalents (e.g., bash scripts, systemctl commands) for tasks currently documented only with PowerShell.
- Clarify differences in authentication, path syntax, and integration runtime setup between Windows and Linux environments.
- Add troubleshooting and best practices sections for common Linux file system issues (e.g., SELinux, NFS, Samba configuration).
- Ensure parity in documentation structure, so Linux users can follow step-by-step guides as easily as Windows users.
