Namespace Design Checklist
The following checklist summarizes the issues you should consider when designing your namespace:
- Consider the number of entries your directory will need to support, and try to predict the rate at which that number will increase.
- Consider the types of entries your directory will store. Decide whether the entries are all the same or of different types and whether new types will likely be added in the future.
- Determine whether your directory data needs to be centralized or distributed. When choosing a directory product, make sure that it supports your choice.
- Consider the requirements for delegating authority to different parts of your directory and how they affect the design of your namespace.
- Consider the effects of replication requirements on your namespace design.
- Keep firmly in mind the applications that will access your directory and any special requirements they may have.
- Think carefully about the attribute you will use to name entries and how best to maintain it. Using the uid or cn attribute to name entries for people is standard practice.
- If possible, leverage existing organizational processes to generate unique identifiers for your users instead of inventing your own.
- Design a system for ensuring and maintaining uniqueness of names in your directory.
- Formulate a name reuse policy that determines whether, when, and how names may be reused.
