In this post I would like to explain the concepts of Oracle Internet Directory 11g replication.
What is replication?
Replication is the process of copying the data from one environment to the other environments by maintaining the same naming contexts. In LDAP, the data is stored in DIT. A DIT can have multiple realms say
dc=uk,dc=acme,dc=com
dc=us,dc=acme,dc=com
dc=au,dc=acme,dc=com
In the above diagram the source OID server (left hand side) has 3 realms in DIT. These 3 realms can be copied over to another OID server using replication.
