+
+\section Overview
+
+ldb is a LDAP-like embedded database. It is not at all LDAP standards
+compliant, so if you want a standards compliant database then please
+see the excellent <a href="http://www.openldap.org/">OpenLDAP</a>
+project.<p>
+
+What ldb does is provide a fast database with an LDAP-like API
+designed to be used within an application. In some ways it can be seen
+as a intermediate solution between key-value pair databases and a real
+LDAP database.<p>
+
+ldb is the database engine used in Samba4.
+
+\section Features
+
+The main features that separate ldb from other solutions are:
+ - Safe multi-reader, multi-writer, using byte range locking
+ - LDAP-like API
+ - fast operation
+ - choice of local tdb, local sqlite3 or remote LDAP backends
+ - integration with <a href="http://talloc.samba.org">talloc</a>
+ - schema-less operation, for trivial setup
+ - modules for extensions (such as schema support)
+ - easy setup of indexes and attribute properties
+ - ldbedit tool for database editing (reminiscent of 'vipw')
+ - ldif for import/export
+
+\section Documentation
+
+ldb has limited programmer and administrator documentation:
+ - a list of <a href="globals_func.html">functions</a>
+ - a list of <a href="examples.html">examples</a>
+ - a list of <a href="annotated.html">data structures</a>
+ - a list of <a href="globals_defs.html">constants</a>
+
+If you need more information than is presented in this document, you
+may wish to look at the source code, especially the source code in the
+<a href="http://samba.org/ftp/unpacked/samba4/source/lib/ldb/tools/">tools directory</a>. 
+
+ldb makes use of the LDAP Data Interchange Format (LDIF), which is
+documented in <a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2849.txt">RFC
+2849</a>. 
+
+\section Support
+
+ldb does not currently have its own mailing list or bug tracking
+system. For now, please use the <a
+href="https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba-technical">samba-technical</a>
+mailing list, and the <a href="http://bugzilla.samba.org/">Samba
+bugzilla</a> bug tracking system.
