Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: it references Windows-specific dependencies (such as .NET Data Provider and Visual C++ Redistributable), authentication types prioritize 'Windows' alongside 'Basic' and 'LDAP', and examples for authentication and driver installation are Windows-centric. There are no explicit Linux equivalents, instructions, or examples for installing dependencies or configuring the integration runtime on Linux systems. The documentation does not mention Linux support or provide parity for Linux-based self-hosted integration runtime scenarios.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit instructions and examples for installing required Teradata drivers and dependencies on Linux systems, including supported distributions.
  • Clarify whether the self-hosted integration runtime and Teradata connector are supported on Linux, and provide guidance if so.
  • Include Linux authentication scenarios (e.g., Kerberos, LDAP on Linux) and configuration examples.
  • Avoid using 'Windows authentication' as a default or primary example; instead, present 'Basic' or 'LDAP' first, and clearly indicate platform-specific options.
  • Mention Linux equivalents for required system libraries (e.g., .NET Core/Mono, relevant C++ libraries) and provide installation commands.
  • Add troubleshooting tips for Linux environments, if supported.
