## What it is
A Docker image that packages OpenLDAP as an LDAP directory server, configurable via environment variables, LDIF seeding, TLS, and multi-master replication. It is widely used to run LDAP servers in containers for development and production.

## Use cases
- run an ldap server in docker
- self-hosted ldap authentication directory
- seed ldap database with ldif in a container
- set up ldap with tls certificates
- multi-master ldap replication in kubernetes
- containerized ldap for dev environments

## When to choose
- you need a quick, configurable OpenLDAP server in Docker or Kubernetes
- you want environment-variable-driven LDAP setup with TLS and replication support

## When to avoid
- you need a directory server other than LDAP, such as Active Directory
- you want a fully managed identity provider rather than self-hosted infrastructure

## Facets
- artifact type: infra-config
- maturity: active
- function: auth, database, self-hosted, configuration-management
- domain: security, self-hosted
- platform: self-hosted
- tags: ldap, openldap, docker-image, directory-service, tls, replication, devops, containers, docker, kubernetes, linux
