Hi all,

I found two functionalities for keystone that could be against each other.

Multi-domain feature (This functionality is new in Juno.)
---------------------------
Link: 
http://docs.openstack.org/developer/keystone/configuration.html#domain-specific-drivers
Keystone supports the option to specify identity driver configurations on a 
domain by domain basis, allowing, for example, a specific domain to have its 
own LDAP or SQL server. So, we can use different backends for different 
domains. But, as Henry Nash said "it has not been validated with multiple SQL 
drivers" https://bugs.launchpad.net/keystone/+bug/1362181/comments/2

Hierarchical Multitenancy
--------------------------------
Link: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/keystone/+spec/hierarchical-multitenancy
This is nested projects feature but, only for SQL, not LDAP.

So, if you are using LDAP and you want "nested projects" feature, you should to 
migrate from LDAP to SQL but, I you want to get multi-domain feature too you 
can't use 2 SQL backends (you need at least one LDAP backend) because is not 
validated for multiple SQL drivers...

Maybe I'm losing something, please, correct me if I'm wrong.

Here my questions:


-          If I want Multi-domain and Hierarchical Multitenancy features, which 
are my options? What should I do (migrate or not migrate to SQL)?

-          Is LDAP going to deprecated soon?

Thanks.

Cheers,
Marcos.
