Summary
The documentation page for securing an Azure Service Fabric cluster demonstrates moderate Windows bias. Windows Server clusters and Windows authentication methods are mentioned prominently and often before Linux equivalents. Several sections, especially those about node-to-node and client-to-node security, provide links and guidance specifically for Windows standalone clusters, with no equivalent guidance for Linux standalone clusters. Windows tools (such as Windows Server certificate service and MakeCert.exe) are referenced for certificate creation, while Linux certificate creation tools are not mentioned. The concept of Linux clusters is acknowledged, but practical instructions and examples for Linux users are missing.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit instructions, examples, and links for securing standalone Linux Service Fabric clusters, including certificate setup and authentication methods.
  • Mention Linux-compatible certificate creation tools (e.g., OpenSSL) alongside Windows tools like MakeCert.exe.
  • Provide parity in guidance for Linux clusters wherever Windows clusters are discussed, especially in node-to-node and client-to-node security sections.
  • Clarify which features are cross-platform and which are Windows-only, to reduce ambiguity for Linux users.
