Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows-centric bias, particularly in sections discussing legacy authentication and infrastructure. It exclusively references Windows-based technologies such as Active Directory Domain Services, ADFS, and Kerberos/NTLM, and provides deployment guidance only for Windows Server environments. There are no examples or guidance for Linux-based identity solutions, nor are cross-platform alternatives mentioned. The documentation assumes the use of Windows tools and patterns, omitting Linux or open-source equivalents.
Recommendations
- Include examples and guidance for integrating Linux-based identity solutions (e.g., using Samba for Active Directory compatibility, or integrating with LDAP/Kerberos on Linux).
- Mention and provide links to documentation for cross-platform identity management tools and patterns, such as Azure AD authentication libraries for Linux and open-source stacks.
- When discussing domain controllers and federation services, acknowledge that Linux-based solutions (such as FreeIPA, Samba AD DC, or Shibboleth for federation) can be used in some scenarios, and provide high-level guidance or references.
- Ensure that any PowerShell or Windows-specific instructions are accompanied by equivalent Bash/CLI or Linux-native examples where possible.
- Explicitly state the platform assumptions in each section and clarify whether the guidance is Windows-only or applicable to other operating systems.
