whitepaper Sports Retailer Deploys Domain Controllers in Stores to Keep Registers Ringing2008-06-01 Microsoft

A big concern arose: if the WAN went down, stores couldn't ring up sales. The retailer found its answer with the Read-Only Domain Controller (RODC) technology in the Windows Server 2008 operating system. Using RODCs, the retailer will be able to place a security-enhanced domain controller in each store so that registers can continue to ring even in the event of a WAN outage.
