Banyan is an old-time networking company which around the 1980s produced VINES, a network protocol and set of utilities. It was once a competitor on the network file server market with Novell and others.
VINES also included StreetTalk Directory Services, one of the first viable directory services to appear in a network operating system (akin to LDAP).
In October 1999 Banyan became ePresence, an ISP. At the same time, it announced the obsolescence of VINES and other Banyan products
