Gents,

LDAP is brutally fast for reads. It is not to be used as a Database (not
optimized for all CRUD operations).

Cheers,

Confirmed. You can get an LDAP JNDI SPI from either JavaSoft (look in
the JNDI page) or Netscape (the Mozilla Directory SDK).

That still does not make LDAP transactional, but I don't see why you
couldn't use LDAP for persistance. After all if you are updating LDAP,
whether through the LDAP API, JNDI or BMP you get the same
non-transactional persistance.
