Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias primarily through its exclusive focus on Active Directory (AD) integration, which is a Windows-centric authentication technology. All examples and instructions assume the use of AD, with no mention of Linux-native identity solutions (such as LDAP, Kerberos, or FreeIPA). There are no examples or guidance for deploying SQL Managed Instance with non-Windows identity providers, nor is there discussion of Linux-specific tooling or patterns. The documentation also references AD setup and organizational unit (OU) configuration without Linux alternatives, reinforcing a Windows-first approach.
Recommendations
- Add examples and guidance for integrating SQL Managed Instance with Linux-native identity providers (e.g., LDAP, Kerberos, FreeIPA) where supported.
- Include documentation on how to perform similar deployments in environments that do not use Active Directory, or clarify AD requirements and alternatives.
- Provide parity in prerequisites and setup instructions for Linux-based identity management tools.
- Explicitly state platform requirements and limitations, and offer links to Linux-focused documentation if available.
- Consider adding troubleshooting or configuration notes for common Linux scenarios (e.g., keytab management, DNS setup on Linux, etc.).
