Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a notable Windows bias in its coverage of hybrid/on-premises scenarios. It exclusively references Windows-specific technologies such as PowerShell cmdlets (Set-AzDataFactoryV2LinkedService, New-AzDataFactoryV2LinkedServiceEncryptedCredential), Windows DPAPI for credential encryption, and Windows Firewall for local firewall configuration. There are no examples or guidance for Linux/macOS environments, such as alternative credential encryption methods, firewall configuration, or command-line tooling. The documentation assumes the self-hosted integration runtime is installed on Windows, with no mention of Linux support or parity.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux/macOS instructions for installing and configuring the self-hosted integration runtime, including credential encryption and storage.
  • Include examples using Linux command-line tools (e.g., bash, openssl) for credential management and encryption.
  • Document Linux firewall configuration (e.g., iptables, firewalld) alongside Windows Firewall.
  • Clarify whether the self-hosted integration runtime supports Linux, and if so, detail any differences in setup, encryption, and port management.
  • Offer cross-platform PowerShell alternatives (e.g., Azure CLI, REST API) for credential management and runtime configuration.
