We are pleased to announce that
Dr Andrew Findlay of
Skills 1st Ltd will be presenting a talk on LDAP Schema
Design after the AGM. This will start at 1845
and is open to all.
It is possible to make one LDAP directory serve many applications
in an organisation. This has the advantage of reducing the effort
required to maintain the data, but it does mean that the design
must be thought out very carefully before implementation starts.
Schema is the term used to describe the shape of the directory and
the rules that govern its content. This talk takes the audience
through the schema design process from requirements capture to
tree layout to entry design. Some traps and pitfalls along the way
are discussed, and an example design is sketched out.
The meeting is in Lecture Theatre 2 of University College London’s
Cruciform Building, which is on the west side of Gower Street,
opposite UCL’s main site (Multimap, Streetmap).
