Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: it exclusively references Windows-centric identity technologies (Active Directory, NTLM/Kerberos, ADFS), provides guidance and links only for Windows Server tools and deployment, and omits Linux equivalents or cross-platform alternatives for identity management. Examples and recommendations are tailored to Windows environments, with no mention of Linux-based identity solutions or integration patterns.
Recommendations
- Include examples and guidance for deploying identity infrastructure (such as LDAP, Kerberos, or SSSD) on Linux-based Azure VMs.
- Reference cross-platform identity management tools and protocols, such as Samba for Active Directory integration on Linux, or Azure AD authentication libraries for non-Windows platforms.
- Provide parity in documentation by showing how Linux-based applications can participate in hybrid identity scenarios, including app registration and authentication flows.
- Mention and link to documentation for Linux-based domain controllers (e.g., Samba AD DC) and federation services, where applicable.
- Add explicit Linux command-line examples (e.g., using curl or wget for OpenID configuration discovery) alongside browser-based instructions.
- Clarify that Azure Government supports both Windows and Linux workloads, and offer best practices for identity management in Linux environments.
