Summary
The documentation page exhibits a notable Windows bias, especially in its implementation and architecture sections. It repeatedly specifies that the Data Factory self-hosted integration runtime must be installed on a Windows machine or Windows VM, with no mention of Linux support or alternatives. All example configurations and recommendations (e.g., VM sizing, scaling) are Windows-centric. There are no Linux/macOS installation instructions, nor is there any indication that the integration runtime can run on non-Windows platforms. This creates friction for users operating in Linux environments, which are common for Hadoop clusters.
Recommendations
- Explicitly state whether the Data Factory self-hosted integration runtime supports Linux/macOS, and if so, provide installation and configuration instructions for those platforms.
- If Linux is not supported, clarify this limitation early in the documentation and suggest possible workarounds or alternatives for Linux users.
- Provide example architectures and best practices for Linux-based environments, especially since Hadoop clusters are often Linux-based.
- Include parity in VM sizing recommendations for Linux VMs if supported.
- Add troubleshooting and operational guidance for Linux/macOS users.
