I would like to use jQuery TypeAhead functionality on my site.

I would like to use TypeAhead to fetch search results from Active Directory. Active Directory contains about 130,0000 records.

What do you think about this setup?

I am thinking I could create a job that runs nightly (or weekly) that dumps these AD records into SQL Server and query that. Additionally, I am thinking about implementing some type of caching, so I am not querying AD or SQL every time.

Is there a more efficient way of structuring this?

    I wouldn’t say caching is the right term. You probably want to build indexes for queries such as column like 'blah%' and column like '%blah'. However, if you want queries column like '%blah%' you should simply use the full text search capabilities. See CONTAINS.
