There are other options than LDAP, and servers other than OpenLDAP, but LDAP is the de facto standard.
Unfortunately, OpenLDAP as a server is deprecated in C8, and isn’t packaged anymore. Upstream they point customers to their directory service, which is based on 389 directory service.
<sigh> Why on Earth is deprecated? I suppose they want people to use FreeIPA, which is a bit of a steam-hammer-to-crack-wallnut type thing.
