The present disclosure relates generally to Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP), and more particularly, to techniques for improving query performance on an LDAP server. One particular technique includes receiving a LDAP query having search criteria, identifying one or more search filters within the search criteria, determining candidate indices based on the identified one or more search filters, evaluating the candidate indices based on statistics collected for the candidate indices, selecting one or more indices from the candidate indices based on the evaluating, and executing the LDAP query on an LDAP directory using the selected one or more indices.

The present disclosure relates generally to Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP), and more particularly, to techniques for improving query performance on an LDAP server. One particular technique includes receiving a LDAP query having search criteria, identifying one or more search filters within the search criteria; evaluating one or more mappings for search filter patterns to index query hints based on the identified one or more search filters; identifying one or more query hints based on the evaluation of the one or more mappings; selecting one or more indices based on the one or more query hints; and executing the LDAP query on an LDAP directory using the selected one or more indices.

Techniques for invitations for establishing relationships are described. In at least some embodiments, an architecture is implemented which provides simple and integrated ways for establishing relationships between various entities. The architecture includes invitations that can be used to invite users to establish relationships with entities. A user that receives an invitation can interact with the invitation, such as to accept or decline an invitation to establish a relationship with an entity. If a user accepts an invitation, a relationship can be established between the user and an inviting entity. In at least some embodiments, the relationship can enable the user to perform various actions and/or access resources associated with the entity.

Various techniques for providing a device token protocol for authorization and persistent authentication shared across applications are disclosed. In some embodiments, a device token protocol for authorization and persistent authentication shared across applications includes sending user credentials to a remote server to authenticate a user on a device for a plurality of applications; and receiving a device token from the remote server for the user to authenticate the user for the plurality of applications on the device, in which the device token facilitates authentication and authorization.
