Please provide some more input for us to evaluate if > ApacheDS is an option for you. We are selecting an LDAP server for use with Grafana and Nifi, all to use as part of a product. The product has a web interface, and needs authentication and possibly authorization. We're aware that a lot of customer environments will have a pre-existing commitment to A-D, so it'd be good to be able to do the basics through that, while not totally ditching the LDAP server we choose to include. We're also aware that a lot of Nifi deployments skip the authorization part of LDAP, instead using Nifi's own idea of what authorization should look like. We still might need it for Grafana or our homebrewed portions. Thanks again.
