Managing ADAM Account Stores
Applies To: Windows Server 2003 R2
Active Directory Application Mode (ADAM) provides data storage and retrieval for directory-enabled applications, without the dependencies that are required for Active Directory. A Federation Service can use multiple ADAM account stores when they are needed to accommodate sets of users for different applications. To differentiate between ADAM stores, the Federation Service assigns a unique value to each ADAM store in the trust policy, in the form of the uniform resource identifier (URI).
