the schema for an appropriate object definition. Based
on the object definition in the schema, the directory
creates the object and stores the data.
Object definitions control the types of data that the
objects can store, as well as the syntax of the data.
Using this information, the schema ensures that all
objects conform to their standard definitions. As a
result, Active Directory can store, retrieve, and
validate the data that it manages, regardless of the

the schema can be stored in the directory. If a new
type of data needs to be stored, a new object
definition for the data must first be created in the
