LDAP is a hierarchical database used as a directory service. It's commonly used as a central authentication service by many applications. Since there is an LDAP extension for MW, wiki users can also be authenticated by an LDAP server.
It's possible to manage only users or both users and groups on an LDAP server.
You can additionally use the LDAP server together with the normal authentication mechanism of MW during a migration process.
