Enjoy Superior Schema Flexibility
eDirectory 8.5 includes a robust default schema; nevertheless, you can extend the default schema to customize the database to fit your needs. For example, you can extend a user object by adding new attributes such as a Social Security Number or an emergency contact name and telephone number. Independent software vendors (ISVs) can also integrate new services into the network by extending the schema and creating new objects. For example, ISVs have added fax server functionality to the network by adding a fax server object to the directory tree.
