Summary
The documentation demonstrates a bias toward Windows technologies and patterns, particularly in sections related to WCF and ASP.NET Web API. Examples and configuration snippets are exclusively for Windows-centric frameworks (WCF, .NET, ASP.NET), with references to Windows roles and groups (e.g., 'Builtin\Administrators') and configuration files (machine.config, app.config) that are specific to Windows environments. There are no equivalent examples or guidance for Linux-based stacks, open-source alternatives, or cross-platform implementations. The documentation also references Microsoft-specific identity providers (ADFS, Entra ID) without mentioning open standards or Linux-compatible solutions.
Recommendations
  • Include equivalent examples for Linux-based technologies (e.g., using Flask/Django for web APIs, or gRPC for service communication).
  • Provide guidance on implementing authorization using open standards (OAuth2, OpenID Connect) and open-source identity providers (Keycloak, Auth0).
  • Add examples for configuring ACLs and least privilege on Linux (e.g., using chmod, setfacl, sudoers).
  • Mention cross-platform approaches and tools where possible, and avoid presenting Windows-specific solutions as the default or only option.
  • Reference Linux and open-source documentation alongside Microsoft Docs to improve parity.
