Active Directory is a special-purpose database — it is not a registry replacement. The directory is designed to handle a large number of read and search operations and a significantly smaller number of changes and updates. Active Directory data is hierarchical, replicated, and extensible. Because it is replicated, you do not want to store dynamic data, such as corporate stock prices or CPU performance. If your data is machine-specific, store the data in the registry. Typical examples of data stored in the directory include printer queue data, user contact data, and network/computer configuration data. The Active Directory database consists of objects and attributes. Objects and attribute definitions are stored in the Active Directory schema.
You may be wondering what objects are currently stored in Active Directory. In Windows 2000, Active Directory has three partitions. These are also known as naming contexts: domain, schema, and configuration. The domain partition contains users, groups, contacts, computers, organizational units, and many other object types. Because Active Directory is extensible, you can also add your own classes and/or attributes. The schema partition contains classes and attribute definitions. The configuration partition includes configuration data for services, partitions, and sites.
The following screen shot shows the Active Directory domain partition.

Active Directory is a database that stores information about users, computers, resources, groups, other types of objects. Now through these information we can assign various permissions, security settings and other configurations for these objects.
The Active Directory database is: Shared/Secure/Encrypted/Hirariechal/Centralized/Configurable/Reliable/Stable/Readable/Flixeble..etc
We also called Active Directory "NOS" Network Operating System as it can mange nearly all of the main network options we need.
Active Directory can be installed only on Windows Server operating Systems like: Windows Server 2008/2003/2000.
Active Directory requires and uses a lot of protocols and services to function like:
-DNS
-LDAP
-Kerberos v5
-GC
-RPC
-DFS/FRS
