Hi Zhang, No, LDAP servers do not have object relational engines like RDBMS servers have. You will always need to implement your relationships at the client side, which means 2..n network round trips and generally bad performance at the client and server side for every use case execution. You should take into account your data query use cases during the data modeling phase. Don't be afraid to create some of your own schema when needed. It's better to create proprietary schema and model according to the hierarchical object paradigm than it is to use off-the-shelf schema and model your data and use cases incorrectly.
