LDAP
What Is LDAP?
LDAP stands for Lightweight Directory Access Protocol. It is a protocol used to query and manage directory-based identity information, often in enterprise environments.
Why LDAP Matters
LDAP matters because organizations use it to:
- centralize identity and directory information,
- support enterprise authentication flows,
- manage user and group data across systems,
- integrate internal tools with existing identity infrastructure.
How Oobeya Uses LDAP
In Oobeya, LDAP belongs to the authentication and access layer. It is relevant for organizations that need directory-based sign-in and enterprise identity alignment. That matters when a new engineering platform must fit into an existing enterprise directory model instead of introducing a separate user-management system.
