Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias, especially in sections discussing legacy authentication and infrastructure. It exclusively references Windows-centric technologies (Active Directory, ADFS, NTLM/Kerberos), provides links to Windows Server documentation, and describes deployment patterns using Windows domain controllers. There are no Linux or cross-platform equivalents mentioned, nor are Linux-based identity solutions or examples provided. Even in browser instructions, Internet Explorer is referenced before alternatives. Modern authentication sections are more neutral, but legacy and infrastructure guidance is Windows-focused.
Recommendations
- Include guidance or references for Linux-based identity solutions (e.g., LDAP, Samba, MIT Kerberos) where appropriate, especially for legacy authentication scenarios.
- Provide examples or documentation links for deploying identity infrastructure on Linux VMs in Azure, or clarify if/why only Windows is supported.
- Mention cross-platform tools and patterns for identity management, such as Azure AD Connect alternatives for Linux, if available.
- When discussing browser compatibility, avoid prioritizing Internet Explorer and mention Linux/macOS browsers equally.
- Explicitly state platform limitations (if any) and offer workarounds or alternatives for non-Windows users.
