The Data Store authentication module allows a login using the Identity Repository of the realm to authenticate users. Using the Data Store module removes the requirement to write an authentication plug-in module, load, and then configure the authentication module if you need to authenticate against the same data store repository. Additionally, you do not need to write a custom authentication module where flat-file authentication is needed for the corresponding repository in that realm.
Yet, the Data Store module is generic. It does not implement data store-specific capabilities such as the password policy and password reset features provided by LDAP modules. Therefore the Data Store module returns failure when such capabilities are invoked.
