Directory Service Architecture Task Force

Mission

The mission of this Task Force is to recommend an architecture for Emory enterprise-wide Directory Service, and then in the context of that architecture, recommend next steps to address issues of immediate concern.

The Directory Service Architecture defines the infrastructure to create a single, unified naming scheme that uniquely identifies entities, and provides the capability for a network-attached service, system, or device to use an entity's name to obtain information about the entity.
