@ -8,6 +8,13 @@ in order to provide a redundant (high-availability) LDAP server on a Nomad+Consu
It is a reimplementation of [superboum's Bottin](https://github.com/superboum/bottin)
using the Go programming language.
**Use case:** [Deuxfleurs](https://deuxfleurs.fr) is a self-hosting collective
where we try to build a resilient infrastructure with commodity hardware by
having redundancy and auto-reconfiguration (this is why we use the Nomad+Consul
stack). We try to use replicated/high availability data stores everywhere we
can, and Bottin helps us do this for the LDAP service. We are not managing a
high number of users at the moment and scalability is not our highest priority.
Features:
- most LDAP operations implemented (add, modify, delete, compare, search with most basic filters)
