LDAP (CSTS)
From Bobs Projects
Light-weight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is a read-mostly database used for authentication and access-control, amongst others.
In the Computer Science Teaching System, there is an LDAP master, csitldap.anu.edu.au and a single replica: csitstuddc.anu.edu.au, both implemented using the slapd LDAP server from the OpenLDAP project.
