Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively referencing Windows VMs for self-hosted Integration Runtime (IR) installation and configuration. There are no examples or guidance for deploying self-hosted IR on Linux, nor is there mention of Linux compatibility or alternatives. The only recommended pattern for private network scenarios is to use a Windows VM, and all scaling and monitoring advice is Windows-specific.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly state whether self-hosted Integration Runtime is supported on Linux, and if so, provide equivalent instructions for deploying and managing IR on Linux VMs.
  • Include Linux-based examples and configuration guidance alongside Windows instructions, especially for scenarios involving self-hosted IR.
  • If Linux is not supported, clarify this limitation early in the documentation to set expectations for cross-platform users.
  • When recommending VM sizes or monitoring strategies, provide guidance for both Windows and Linux environments where applicable.
  • Review all references to 'Windows VM' and consider using neutral language such as 'VM' or 'host machine', specifying OS-specific steps only when necessary.
