Okay, accept up front I know nothing about this Microsoft thing. But if it's linked with REST calls (as you imply in the rest of this post) why would IIB on Linux be an issue?
Well you could certainly "dog leg" through BlueMix and use that to front the backend systems as described in that article.
I'm still unclear why you'd need it.

The first question is: What interfaces are available to connect to Dynamics from a non-windows platform. Is there a REST API? Is there a SOAP interface? Etc. Etc. Etc.
If there isn't, then you will have to set up an IIB on Windows.
If there is, then you can just implement a normal IIB flow that uses that interface.
The devworks article you mentioned talks about using Bluemix to receive input and pass it to an IIB flow. If you aren't using Bluemix to receive inputs, you don't need to, um, use Bluemix. Presumably you already have sufficient security across your IIB installation to ensure it can only be accessed from the right places.

IIB on Linux is not the issue, IIB integration to Microsoft(.Net) on Linux is.

There is no existing interface at the moment. We will have to develop one.

Runtime is on Linux since ages, and not setting up on Windows for this.

We will. But, can we use just the REST API/SOAP interface to connect to the Cloud without using the Dynamics pattern or the .NetCompute node? Am I repeating the same question  ? |

If there is no way to connect to Dynamics from a non-windows platform, then how do you expect to connect to Dynamics from a linux machine?
You can write all the REST/SOAP interfaces you want, but if they can't connect to Dynamics, then they can't connect to Dynamics.

If the cloud based Microsoft offering only accepts connections over a Microsoft / .NET / proprietary transport then you're done.

Why not get a cloud based IIB instance on a Windows platform? Potentially on the same cloud provider that's running this other gadget.

Only if this thing accepts REST API or SOAP calls. If it insists whatever this "Dynamics pattern" is (I would assume a series of .NET methods) then nothing's going to work for you.
