Summary
The documentation assumes the use of the on-premises data gateway, which is primarily a Windows-only tool, and all installation and troubleshooting steps reference installing and running the gateway and Oracle client on 'the computer' without clarifying platform support. There are no Linux-specific instructions or examples, and no mention of Linux compatibility or alternatives. This creates a bias toward Windows environments.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly state platform support for the on-premises data gateway and Oracle client (e.g., whether Linux is supported or not).
  • If Linux is supported, provide Linux-specific installation steps and troubleshooting guidance for both the gateway and Oracle client.
  • If Linux is not supported, clearly call this out in the prerequisites or limitations section.
  • Include examples or notes for Linux users, such as using Oracle Instant Client on Linux, or alternatives for connecting from Linux hosts.
  • When referencing services or commands (e.g., restarting PBIEgwService), provide Linux equivalents if available, or note their absence.
