What is the alternative to AD, and are there currently companies running that, big or small?

    At this point, a lot of entities don't need AD because their entire workflow runs in a web browser, and practically any SSO provider will work.

    That said, accessing actual computer resources can be managed with groups and ACLs. Perhaps not as elegantly or as well-integrated as AD is, but that's the price you pay.
