Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing the on-premises data gateway installation on a 'local computer' (which, in Microsoft context, is almost always Windows), mentioning Windows service account management, and providing PowerShell-based automation links for gateway administration. There are no explicit Linux/macOS installation instructions, examples, or tooling references, and the only automation examples are PowerShell-based, which is Windows-centric.
Recommendations
- Explicitly state platform requirements for the on-premises data gateway, including whether Linux/macOS are supported for installation.
- If Linux/macOS are supported, provide installation instructions and troubleshooting steps for those platforms.
- Offer automation examples using cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI, REST API) in addition to PowerShell.
- Clarify service management instructions for non-Windows platforms (e.g., systemd for Linux).
- Ensure screenshots and examples do not implicitly assume Windows-only environments.
