glueing subtree and performance
i am expecting to implement distributed directory service in couple months
time. lets say i have dc=domain,dc=com and i am expecting to have no less than
50 subtrees:
dc=subtree[1..50],dc=domain,dc=com
1. a registration form with select boxes (showing exact location of subtree)
will be used during user registration. this will enable me to write this record
to the appropriate subtree ldap server. the registration form will advise users
to properly choose their location as we are offering distributed services which
would enable them to access info faster.
after a successful registration,
2. my users have the option of signing in thru
a) http://domain.com/signin (root ldap server)
or
b)http://subtreeX.domain.com/signin (the ldap server in their hometown)
3. should they choose option a) in step 1 above, will the ldap server at root
have to go to each subtree and query that subtree ldap server in turn?
ie if user John registers at ldap server in subtree 49, the root server will
have to test subtree 1 to 49 before getting John's record.
is my understanding correct? would this impose performance penalty?
if yes, could somebody suggest better alternative?
TIA
