Your network contains the following roles and applications:
Microsoft SQL Server 2012
Distributed File System (DFS) Replication
Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS)
Active Directory Rights Management Services (AD RMS)
Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS)
You plan to deploy Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS).
You need to identify which deployed services or applications can be used as attribute stores
for the planned AD FS deployment.
What should you identify? (Each correct answer presents a complete solution. Choose all
that apply.)
A.
DFS
B.
AD RMS
C.
Microsoft SQL Server 2012
D.
AD LDS
E.

I think that the ability to use AD LDS as an attribute store was removed in 2012 so only C & E are correct (see quick ref table in link)
Its tricky as a lot of documentation I discovered on the web indicates that LDS can be used but this is the latest info I found (Updated: October 29, 2014)and relates to 2012 R2
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn303411.aspx
Also found this (Updated: November 1, 2013)
see section “Attribute stores that are supported by AD FS” (No mention of AD LDS !!!)

For the Windows Server Technical Preview, the AD FS server role includes the same functionality and feature set that is available in Windows Server 2012 and Windows Server 2012 R2. It also includes new features that enable you to configure AD FS to authenticate users stored in non-AD directories, such as X.500 compliant Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) directories and SQL databases. In many organizations, identity management solutions consist of a combination of Active Directory, AD LDS and third-party LDAP directories, as well as SQL databases. With the AD FS support of the non-AD identity stores, you can benefit from the entire enterprise-ready AD FS feature set regardless of where your user identities are stored.
Given answer is correct.

Applies To: Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2012
You can also deploy AD LDS as an extranet authentication store along with Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS). This configuration enables Web single-sign-on (SSO) technologies to authenticate users to multiple Web applications with a single user account.
CDE and custom attribute store.
