I wonder if in large organisations it'd be better to have a single service handling password management (with split databases still). That way you could lock it down to one set of IPs, all access monitored and more importantly one password storage implementation.
- mschuster91 11y agoSuch a thing exists, it's called LDAP. Bonus effect, many LDAP implementations (Windows AD, OpenLDAP, Lotus) give you replication and failover for free.
- voltagex_ 11y agofacepalm. I work with AD all the time. I wonder why more startups don't use an LDAP implementation + heavy access restrictions for credential storage.
- mschuster91 11y agoMight be because LDAP is viewed as an "enterprise-y" technology...too old-school for the hipsters
