@fredzannarbor Alteryx is not supported on Linux environments. The Technical Specifications can be found here.

It is clear that Alteryx does not currently run on Linux, except perhaps in a VM or with Wine. But can that be future development? I use Linux for R, Scala, Database and Python programming. So why not Alteryx?

@RobertFolkertsTCS Our Promote solution runs on Linux CentOS 7 but currently Designer + Server do not. You can create models in R/Python and deploy them to Promote.

It's not just a convenience for individuals -- can also make a big difference to organizations. Our development organization does not support Windows servers. Everything (and all the skill set) is Linux. So much much easier to stand up shared Alteryx services if they are on Linux. High on our wish list.

If Alteryx was to run on Linux you would see a reduction in hardware cost associated with running a fleet of machines utilizing Alteryx designer and the server edition. It's a win win.

Upvoting this idea, as this is becoming a significant barrier to our Enterprise's adoption and management of Alteryx Designer & Server.
Adding the Windows OS cost on top of each Designer license adds up, and adds additional complexity to managing the environment on which Alteryx works, both for Designer on client machines, and definitely for Server.
Our infra is increasingly moving to the cloud, and is linux/open-source only from an OS perspective, so we're also stuck on-prem with our Alteryx Deployment. This further hampers value and adoption because more and more of our data lives in the cloud. More latency and proxies to navigate = less interest in self-serving analytics with Alteryx, which is a shame because the UI and procedural thinking it engenders are really great.
