Summary:
The documentation consistently refers to installing the Azure Data Factory self-hosted integration runtime (IR) on Windows machines or VMs, both on-premises and in Azure. There is no mention of Linux support or examples, nor are Linux tools or patterns discussed. Windows is presented as the default and only supported platform for the self-hosted IR, and all scaling and configuration guidance is Windows-specific.
Recommendations:
- Explicitly state platform support for the self-hosted integration runtime, including whether Linux is supported or not. If not, clarify this early in the documentation.
- If Linux is supported, provide equivalent instructions, examples, and best practices for installing and configuring the self-hosted IR on Linux systems.
- Include Linux-specific considerations for scaling, monitoring, and troubleshooting the self-hosted IR.
- If only Windows is supported, suggest possible workarounds for Linux environments (e.g., using Windows containers or VMs) and explain the rationale.
- Ensure that any references to 'machines' or 'VMs' clarify the required operating system, and avoid assuming Windows by default.
