## LDAP Introduction

LDAP (Light Directory Access Portocol), which is a lightweight directory access protocol based on the X.500 standard.

A directory is a database optimized for querying, browsing and searching that organizes data in a tree-like structure, similar to a file directory.

LDAP directory service is a system consisting of a directory database and a set of access protocols.

## Why use LDAP?

When we have more than one daily office system, each system has a different account password, the password is too much to remember which system the password corresponds to, when the new system development is not to create a new set of account password?

LDAP unified authentication service is used to solve the above problems.
