Q.
How does NDS make my development time more productive?
A.
You obtain concrete advantages, such as less hassle and less time spent in the development process. You can pick and choose the NDS functionalities you want to leverage, including single sign-on, authentication, administration, management and object repository. By using NDS, you can be confident that you're adding tried-and-true directory functionality to your application and use your choice of familiar developer tools without having to design and build access and management services of your own. Lastly, you can design, build, market and support your application while Novell supports (and markets) the directory services end.
NDS allows you to integrate your directory-enabled application with every widely used client-based directory access protocol, developer API, and back-end name resolution or directory service in the industry. Because NDS successfully addresses the issues that developers face, such as time to market, limited tools, platforms, and protocol integration, the development world is brimming with vast new opportunities for providing a new generation of intelligent, network-aware applications.
