This section provides a simple scenario that shows how a virtual directory answers specific business requirements.

Example.com stores uses three different data repositories to store user data. Example.com's Directory Server contains the bulk of the user data. User email addresses are stored in an Active Directory, and HR data is stored in a MySQL database.
