Symas OpenLDAP Managed Services
LDAP Directories are complex. They have many networking options, security requirements, database capabilities, performance, and capacity management demands. The resources required to stay on top of managing an LDAP Directory can be too expensive. Symas Managed Services provides the specialists qualified to provide sustained engineering for OpenLDAP systems. This service augments a Symas OpenLDAP Gold “High Severity” (24x7x365) support plan. It priced per production server per year just like the support product.
Symas OpenLDAP Managed Service is best for IT shops with strong Infrastructure and Networking teams managing the server environments. All too often, systems administration is stretched so much that their LDAP skills get rusty and then responsiveness suffers. The solution is to offload the LDAP Directory’s complex workload to Symas Managed Services.
