Active Directory Interview Question:

Define Active Directory schema?

Submitted by: Administrator

The Active Directory schema is the set of definitions that defines the kinds of objects, and the types of information about those objects, that can be stored in Active Directory. The definitions are themselves stored as objects so that Active Directory can manage the schema objects with the same object management operations used for managing the rest of the objects in the directory.
There are two types of definitions in the schema: attributes and classes. Attributes and classes are also referred to as schema objects or metadata.
