Sun JSDS 6.1 Review
There’s a short review of Sun’s Java Systems Directory Server 6.1 by another working directory admin here. In it Kostas Kalevras talks about his recent experience deploying the product in his org’s data center and provides some initial impressions. The one that really jumped out at me was this:
Until 6.1 we ‘ve faced quite a lot of stability issues (the servers run Solaris on 64-bit x86). The ldap server would crash for no reason and sometimes replication would fail and replicas would have to be reinitialized. We ‘ve installed 6.2 today and so far so good but i can say i ‘m rather disappointed with the software quality compared to the one i had gotten used to with the 5.X versions.
