Is there an analogue of ad for linux?
Astralinux laptops were delivered to the school. I want to set them up on something easy to learn. Installing applications, opening an application, restricting access rights, etc.
Thanks to all who responded. I will try FreeIPA + Ansible.

FreeIPA
True, I couldn't install it on a server with debian - I don't remember what the error was, but I didn't want to install it. But on Rocky Linux it became without problems.
AD is not at all easy to learn.
There are only two development branches:
- samba and projects wound around it (Zentyal etc.)
- IPA and projects wound around it.
Samba is a "Windows server without Windows" and is driven by Windows snap-ins. IPA is a completely separate product, unfamiliar to me, I just know what it is
samba (I myself drive through the Windows RSAT)
I also heard about FreeIPA
For Linux, centralized management solutions either revolve around Microsoft's support for networking (based on samba) or task-based.
If you don’t know (have no experience) how to use the solution, then you won’t get boxed in terms of time and effort, because you will have to figure out what and how in any case.
I advise you to figure it out and do everything yourself, rather than relying on a beautiful interface where the functionality completely covers and replaces the documentation (for some reason this is not popular in open source, probably because it takes a day to do it for free, it just scores on documentation)
For example, automatic remote installation of the OS on machine is unattended install over pxe boot
