Inter-forest trust is usually developed after a company acquires another company.
Forests: For large organizations or intercompany relationships, domains are grouped into forests. Trees: Trees define the trust between domains, deciding who can access what in different parts of an organization, and letting IT admins manage their own community of users and devices. A domain is usually associated with either a company or an organization in a company, like the “Engineering Domain.” Domains: Users (such as employees) and devices (such as computers) that share the same Active Directory database are part of a domain. In Active Directory, assets are sorted into one of three tiers. It also stores credentials (like your username and password) so it can authenticate you to all the applications you use. The directory brings together, in a central service, information about all the people, computers, and other assets in the organization. If you update your password or change your last name, you would have to do that in every application in which you have an account. IT admins would have to manually assign you to every single application you need to access. 
You would have to keep providing a username and password for each application. Imagine working at a company without a directory: And IT admins want to be able to group people together and manage access to computers and printers.Īctive Directory was created to ease the management of users and computers by storing information about them in a single directory. In the IT environment, users don’t want to use a separate password for each application they access. Microsoft creates a lot of IT software, from Windows desktops to Windows Server, Exchange, Sharepoint, and more. LDAP is used to talk to and query several different types of directories (including Active Directory). Lightweight directory access protocol (LDAP) is a protocol, not a service. It integrates with most Microsoft Office and Server products. 
Active Directory is a Microsoft product used to organize IT assets like users, computers, and printers.
