Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias primarily through its exclusive focus on Active Directory (AD) integration, which is a Windows-centric technology. All examples and instructions assume AD as the identity provider, with no mention of Linux-native alternatives (such as LDAP or Kerberos realms not backed by AD). The documentation does not provide guidance for Linux-based identity management or integration patterns, nor does it offer parity for Linux environments that do not use AD. The terminology and prerequisites are oriented toward Windows tools and infrastructure, and there are no Linux-first or cross-platform authentication examples.
Recommendations
- Include examples and guidance for integrating SQL Managed Instance with Linux-native identity providers (e.g., OpenLDAP, MIT Kerberos).
- Add documentation sections that explain how to deploy and manage SQL Managed Instance in environments without Active Directory, highlighting Linux authentication options.
- Clarify prerequisites to indicate whether AD is mandatory or if alternatives are supported, and provide links to relevant Linux documentation if available.
- Balance terminology and instructions to reference both Windows and Linux tools where applicable, or explicitly state platform limitations.
- If AD is the only supported option, clearly state this limitation and provide rationale, while suggesting workarounds or future roadmap for Linux parity.
