- 2. LDAP ? • Good protocol • Great products and services • Main problem : Where are the developers ? • LDAP or directory services at University ? • Enjoy the Dev Kits ! • Protocol from another era : ASN1, BER… (cc) http://www.flickr.com/photos/bloodlessr/
- 3. DSMLv2 ? • Heavyweight • Too close to LDAP • Few tools • Incomplete
- 4. So what else ? • HTTP for transport • JSON for data representation • Loosely coupled • Fueling the API economy ⇒ RESTfull APIs (cc) http://www.flickr.com/photos/iain/
- 5. Introducing REST to LDAP • /users • /groups • But also any object or collection can be configured • /hosts • /networks … • All CRUD operations: • Queries, with filters and returned attributes • Put / Post / Delete / Patch… • Directory specific operations: Modify password…
- 6. GET /users/user.0 {! "_rev" : "000000003a46b19d",! "schemas" : [ "urn:scim:schemas:core:1.0" ],! "contactInformation" : {! "telephoneNumber" : "+1 685 622 6202",! "emailAddress" : "user.0@maildomain.net"! },! "_id" : "user.0",! "name" : {! "familyName" : "Amar",! "givenName" : "Aaccf"! },! "userName" : "user.0@maildomain.net",! "displayName" : "Aaccf Amar"! }!
- 7. 2 Options • In OpenDJ server • Embedded • Direct access to the data and services • More secure • As a standalone web application • Gateway between HTTP and LDAP • Works with any LDAP server • Can be scaled like any other web application • Network latency
- 8. Embedded REST to LDAP • Delivered part of OpenDJ 2.6 by default. • Just needs to be enabled • As well as http logs (for auditing and troubleshooting) • Configuration as a json file • LDAP based configuration is coming
- 9. Demo
- 10. REST to LDAP vs SCIM • OpenDJ REST to LDAP is inspired by SCIM • Filters • Queries • Identifiers • Json representation • SCIM is still a moving target • SCIM is Identity centric vs REST to LDAP is generic • SCIM support will be a strip down, hardwired configuration of REST to LDAP
- 11. Take the ride to REST !
