-.SH "NAME"
-ldb \- A light-weight database library
-.PP
-.SH "SYNOPSIS"
-.PP
-\fB#include <ldb\&.h>\fP
-.PP
-.SH "DESCRIPTION"
-.PP
-ldb is a light weight embedded database library and API\&. With a
-programming interface that is very similar to LDAP, ldb can store its
-data either in a tdb(3) database or in a real LDAP database\&.
-.PP
-When used with the tdb backend ldb does not require any database
-daemon\&. Instead, ldb function calls are processed immediately by the
-ldb library, which does IO directly on the database, while allowing
-multiple readers/writers using operating system byte range locks\&. This
-leads to an API with very low overheads, often resulting in speeds of
-more than 10x what can be achieved with a more traditional LDAP
-architecture\&.
-.PP
-It a taxonomy of databases ldb would sit half way between key/value
-pair databases (such as berkley db or tdb) and a full LDAP
-database\&. With a structured attribute oriented API like LDAP and good
-indexing capabilities, ldb can be used for quite sophisticated
-applications that need a light weight database, without the
-administrative overhead of a full LDAP installation\&.
-.PP
-Included with ldb are a number of useful command line tools for
-manipulating a ldb database\&. These tools are similar in style to the
-equivalent ldap command line tools\&.
-.PP
-In its default mode of operation with a tdb backend, ldb can also be
-seen as a "schema-less LDAP"\&. By default ldb does not require a
-schema, which greatly reduces the complexity of getting started with
-ldb databases\&. As the complexity of you application grows you can take
-advantage of some of the optional schema-like attributes that ldb
-offers, or you can migrate to using the full LDAP api while keeping
-your exiting ldb code\&.
-.PP
-If you are new to ldb, then I suggest starting with the manual pages
-for ldbsearch(1) and ldbedit(1), and experimenting with a local
-database\&. Then I suggest you look at the ldb_connect(3) and
-ldb_search(3) manual pages\&.
