Summary:
The documentation is heavily oriented toward Windows environments. All examples, tools, and scripts assume a Windows OS (e.g., .cmd, .bat, .ps1 files, use of msiexec.exe, cmdkey, odbcconf.exe, and PowerShell). There are no Linux or cross-platform examples, and all instructions and sample scripts are Windows-specific. The documentation does not mention or provide alternatives for Linux-based environments, nor does it clarify that Azure-SSIS IR is Windows-only, which may confuse users seeking Linux support.
Recommendations:
- Explicitly state early in the documentation that Azure-SSIS IR is a Windows-based service, and Linux customizations are not supported. This will set clear expectations for cross-platform users.
- If any Linux or cross-platform support is planned or available (e.g., for other Azure Data Factory runtimes), provide links or references to those options.
- Where possible, clarify that all script and tool references (e.g., .cmd, .ps1, msiexec.exe) are Windows-specific, and suggest alternatives or workarounds for users on non-Windows platforms (such as preparing scripts on Linux and uploading via cross-platform tools).
- Add a section or FAQ addressing the lack of Linux support, and direct users to appropriate Azure documentation for Linux-based data integration scenarios.
- If any steps (such as uploading files to Azure Storage) can be performed with cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI, azcopy), provide those examples alongside Windows-specific ones.
