Gary,

I am from Boston College and we migrated from Oracle DSEE to Symas
OpenLDAP. We opted for Symas support and installation, Symas helped on data
conversion, Indexing, installation, configuration in Dev/QA and Prod. It
has been close to 3 years since migrating to OpenLDAP and we haven't
encountered any issues. Symas OpenLDAP has been reliable in terms of
performance and support (Urgent to 24 hours buffer).

I hope that helps, also we use RHEL8 currently and Shibboleth 4.3.1 with
Symsa OpenLDAP 2.5. Symas Repo - https://repo.symas.com/soldap2.5/

Regards,
Phaneeshwar Nalluri
