[BNE-PM] What do you use Perl for?

[Mike Bissett]

Don, 
 
We use openLDAP/dbm to store and access our directory and 
service information like for instance the Government Staff  
Directory we also used it recently to inplement a web  
based services locator, all the services were in a  
directory and accessed via LDAP. LDAP is a lot more  
slimline than using the full DAP/X500 stuff and therfore  
works better with webservers etc... LDAP works well when  
reads take priority over writes, it doesnt matter in our  
Government staff directory if it takes a few minutes for  
data to update but it would be a problem if it took a few  
minutes to gfet at the data..  
  
Hope i sound clear im well know for gibbering like a fool  
:)
