Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a mild Windows bias by referencing 'IBM Informix for Windows running in Azure virtualization' as the primary cloud-based example and by listing 'Windows (kerberos)' as an authentication type without mentioning Linux equivalents. There is no explicit Linux example or mention of Linux authentication mechanisms, and the documentation does not clarify cross-platform compatibility or provide parity in examples for Linux-based Informix deployments.
Recommendations:
- Explicitly mention support for Linux-based Informix servers, both on-premises and in the cloud.
- Provide example connection strings and scenarios for Informix running on Linux, not just Windows.
- Clarify authentication options for Linux deployments (e.g., PAM, LDAP, or other mechanisms) alongside Windows (kerberos).
- Ensure that screenshots and example values do not imply Windows-only environments (e.g., use generic hostnames or include Linux hostnames).
- Add a note or section about cross-platform compatibility, including any differences or considerations for Linux users.
