Summary
The documentation page exhibits a notable Windows bias, especially in the hybrid/on-premises scenarios. It references Windows-specific tools (PowerShell cmdlets, DPAPI, Windows Firewall) exclusively for credential encryption and management, and does not provide equivalent instructions or examples for Linux/macOS environments. The port requirements and firewall configuration sections also focus on Windows Firewall and PowerShell, with no mention of Linux firewall tools (e.g., iptables, firewalld) or cross-platform alternatives.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux/macOS equivalents for credential encryption and management, such as using OpenSSL or platform-agnostic encryption libraries.
  • Include examples using bash scripts, Azure CLI, or REST API for tasks currently shown only with PowerShell cmdlets.
  • Document Linux firewall configuration steps (e.g., using iptables, ufw, firewalld) alongside Windows Firewall instructions.
  • Clarify whether self-hosted integration runtime supports Linux, and if so, provide setup and security instructions for those platforms.
  • Explicitly state any platform limitations or requirements for self-hosted integration runtime and related security features.
