    SQL is a horrible solution... difficult or sometimes impossible to
    sync up multiple master servers globally, and you have to be
    extremely careful with parsing the data stored.  LDAP is simple to
    set up, simple to read, and it will happily store data exactly as
    you enter it.  Plus we already have an LDAP network set up which
    contains a lot of other data, so why set up an SQL server just for
    one service?  And why would you need SQL to provide an API?

Hi.

Good news. Thanks for your work.

P.S. MySQL be much better :) So we can provide API to get this data and
also no need to restart something.
