The OSI directory system manages a distributed directory information database of named objects, defining a hierarchical relationship between the objects. An object consists of a set of attributes as determined by a particular class. Attributes are tuples that include a type and one or more values.This paper presents an overview of the X.500 standard and describes extensions to the standard to provide user agents with a means of handling atomic transactions. The new interface allows any sequence of standardized X.500 operations to be executed in the context of an atomic transaction. Support is also provided for the two phase commit protocol, allowing two or more directories to atomically commit updates.
