HA200-SAP HANA 2.0 SPS06 - Installation and Administration. LDAP Group Authentication and Authorization The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is an application protocol for accessing directory services. If you use an LDAP-compliant identity management server to manage users and their access to resources, you can use an LDAP server to authenticate SAP HANA users and you can use LDAP group membership to authorize SAP HANA users. Automatic User Provisioning Based on LDAP SAP HANA can automatically create users if they already exist in an LDAP server. In combination with SAP HANA's ability to automatically assign roles to users based on LDAP groups, this can significantly reduce complexity and cost for maintaining users and authorizations in large system landscapes.
