Highly Scalable LDAP, Alternatives
4 points by _uoi8 4961 days ago
Folks, Any experience related to implementing a highly scalable (let's say directory has billion records), high performance( in terms of read latency) LDAP server? What other alternatives should I be thinking of?

Hi, I do not have a use case as such. I have used LDAP years ago and was curious if there are any better products now in the market and what the challenges with LDAP servers are.
What's the use case? Why LDAP? And really, a billion records?
