LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol)
- LDAP目錄的條目（entry）由屬性（attribute）的一個聚集組成，並由一個唯一性的名字參照，即專有名稱（distinguished name，DN）。例如，DN能取這樣的值：「ou=people,dc=wikipedia,dc=org」。
- LDAP is appropriate for any kind of directory-like information, where fast lookups and less-frequent updates are the norm.
- LDAP does not define how programs work on either the client or server side. It defines the "language" used for client programs to talk to servers (and servers to servers, too).
