Why We Skipped LDAP, Active Directory, and Entra ID — And What We Built Instead
· 8 minutes de lecture
Most enterprise identity architectures did not start as what they are today. They started in 1999 with Active Directory, accumulated LDAP integrations over the following decade, and are now partway through a migration toward cloud-based identity via Microsoft Entra ID — carrying the weight of every layer that came before.
We built our platform from scratch. We never had an on-premises domain. We never configured LDAP. We skipped directly to the protocol stack that enterprises are spending years and significant money trying to reach. This post explains what we chose, why, and how the resulting identity architecture compares to the enterprise standard.
