Active Directory 面接の質問と回答

Question: Explain the Global Catalog in Active Directory.

Answer: The Global Catalog is a distributed data repository in Active Directory that contains a searchable, partial representation of every object in the forest. It facilitates searches across domains and provides essential information during logon and resource access.

Example:

When searching for a user in a multi-domain environment, the Global Catalog helps locate the user without having to contact each domain separately.
