Summary:
The documentation exhibits a Windows bias in several areas. Many connectors and examples, especially those related to Microsoft Exchange, Active Directory, IIS, and DNS, are described exclusively in the context of Windows servers and Windows agents. Instructions and prerequisites often reference 'Windows machines', 'Windows agent', or 'Windows Event logs' without mentioning Linux equivalents or providing parallel Linux instructions. In some cases, only Windows-specific tools or logging mechanisms (e.g., Windows Firewall, Windows Event Forwarding) are discussed, and Linux alternatives (such as Syslog or Linux firewalls) are either omitted or only briefly mentioned. This creates an impression that Windows is the primary or default platform for these integrations, with Linux support being secondary or absent.
Recommendations:
- For every connector or example that references Windows-specific tools (e.g., Windows Event logs, Windows Firewall, IIS), provide equivalent Linux examples (e.g., Syslog, iptables/ufw, Apache/Nginx logs) where applicable.
- Where instructions mention 'Windows machines' or 'Windows agent', clarify if and how Linux machines are supported, and provide explicit Linux setup steps if available.
- For connectors that support both Windows and Linux (such as 'Custom logs via AMA' or 'Syslog via AMA'), ensure that Linux is mentioned equally and that Linux-specific guidance is as detailed as the Windows guidance.
- If certain features are Windows-only, explicitly state this and, if possible, suggest alternative approaches for Linux users.
- Review the ordering of examples and documentation sections to avoid always listing Windows first; alternate or group by platform where appropriate.
- Encourage contributors to include Linux prerequisites, commands, and troubleshooting steps alongside Windows content.
