Overview

Network Information Service, short for NIS, is no longer supported. Yet, there are many large companies who are still using NIS as the major backbone of their identity information. Penrose allows NIS entries to be translated into LDAP entries in a real-time manner. This avoid the expensive ETL (extract, transform and load) operations to re-import/export NIS to LDAP.
