ReOpenLDAP

Production-ready replacement for OpenLDAP on Linux:

  • A lot of bug fixing and code quality improvement.
  • A number of new features, most of which deal with highload and multi-master clustering.
  • Bundled with all known contributed extensions.
  • Clean build without warnings from modern compilers.
  • But only Linux supported, e.g no Windows, Mac OS, FreeBSD, Solaris or HP-UX.

Build StatusCircleCI

ReOpenLDAP is currently running in telcos across Russia:
  • Several clusters in full mesh multi-master replication topology, mostly with four nodes as a two geographically distributed pairs.
  • Up to 100 million records and up to 100 GB of data on each node.
  • Up to 10K updates and up to 25K searches per second.

No other LDAP server can provide such level of performance nowadays due to replication troubles, inadequate performance or high risk of a crash. Therefore ReopenLDAP also known as "TelcoLDAP" - the telco-oriented fork of OpenLDAP.

Features and Change List

Below is a list of main new features of ReOpenLDAP, for a description ones please see the corresponding man pages after installation, i.e. man --manpath=CONFIGURED_PREFIX/share/man slapd.conf.

For latest news and changes please refer to the NEWS.md and ChangeLog.

List of changes emerged from OpenLDAP project could be seen in the CHANGES.OpenLDAP.

Added features:

  • multi-master replication is working properly and robustly (it seems no other LDAP server can do this)
  • reopenldap [iddqd] [idkfa]
  • quorum { [vote-sids ...] [vote-rids ...] [auto-sids] [auto-rids] [require-sids ...] [require-rids ...] [all-links] }
  • quorum limit-concurrent-refresh
  • biglock { none | local | common }
  • storage (mdb backend): dreamcatcher & oom-handler (ITS#7974), lifo & coalesce (ITS#7958)
  • syncprov-showstatus { none | running | all }
  • syncrepl's requirecheckpresent option
  • keepalive <idle>:<probes>:<interval> for incoming connections
  • built-in memory checker called 'Hipagut', including ls-malloc
  • support for OpenSSL 1.1.x, Mozilla NSS, GnuTLS and LibreSSL 2.5.x
  • ready for LTO (Link-Time Optimization) by GCC and clang.

Installation

Traditional triade ./configure --prefix=YOUR_INSTALLATION_PREFIX YOUR_OPTIONS && make && make install. However the configure will absent, in case you use development or a snapshot versions, so you need run the ./bootstrap to build them.

For more information please see INSTALL.
