LDAP

LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) is a software protocol for enabling anyone to locate data about organizations, individuals, and other resources, such as files and devices on a network. It is a "directory service" that structures information in a hierarchical, tree-like structure, allowing for efficient searching and retrieval of information. Think of it like a phone book for networks, but instead of just names and numbers, it can store a wide range of information about network users and resources.
