Why Did we Build Lotus Notes 8 on ?

8

Seems Like a Good Idea..

The plug-in approach is also compelling from an IT standpoint. With relative ease, developers should be able to create plug-ins (with Lotus Domino Designer 8 or Eclipse-based tools) that mashup data from in-house systems (such as CRM and HR systems) and outside Web services. There’s also a Composite Application Editor to wire components together by dragging and dropping them into a compound application, which should speed development.

Mashups for Business

Application re-use Build/deploy next generation Composite Apps Customize interfaces easily Get high value for low cost Aggregate functionality with no coding!

Composite Apps at Work in IBM

Integrates database of customers, their PMRs and probability of becoming a critsit

Generate reports per customer showing historical data, like associating their PMRS with specific products

Support Application

Spreadsheet shows details about past and current PMRs

CSI app shows list of customers with open PMRs

CAPture allows creating report for customer

Web app (data from DB2) with thesev1 PMRs for a customer. From here

PMR can be opened

Experience Notes Tremendous accomplishments in Notes 8.0 – but much more to

come

A few examples: Option to use “Notes Classic” document selection mode in views Gridded bookmarks Drag and Drop in more places Drag resizing of tables Easier to understand and use Archiving UI Improved alert notifications (such as for new mail) Spell checking autocorrect Multiple email signatures Better navigation/management of Sidebar

Notes 8.5 on Mac OS X 10.5

Simplifying Identity Management in Domino 8.5

For Users:Eliminate need to enter Notes password. Windows

authentication trusted to validate userSimplify “forgotten password” and “lost ID file” recoveryEliminate need to manually keep multiple ID files consistent

For IT:Allow Notes user and group information to be stored and

managed in non-Domino LDAP directoriesGreatly simplify Notes ID management: manage, update and

distribute ID‘sCentral Notes ID vault

Eliminates expensive error-prone manual operations Automates Lotus Notes ID file provisioning to Notes

desktops

Alternative Directory Overview

Option to replace Domino Directory with alternative LDAP directoriesOptional deployment choiceDomino Directory continues to be supported

Store Domino person attributes in LDAPOther information will be stored in a Domino Configuration DB

Tools will be provided to migrate Domino person attributes into LDAPAllows for phased migration to new directory

New Domino directory APIs for applications integration

Active Directory will be first implementation planned for Domino Next

Future: support additional LDAP directories

Domino Attachment and Object Store

Provides efficient, file-system storage of large objects – initially attachments

Removes redundant storage of stored objects using efficient content comparison.

Simple – Attachments are placed in DAOS based on database setting and size criteria rather than due to knowledge of sharing

Reduces disk space – depending on degree of content overlap

Improves mail performanceAttachments are written once per serveradditional users just get a copy of the reference

Improves compact performanceAvoids need to move large objects (attachments) during compaction

process – only small reference is moved.

Enables large reduction in incremental backup costsDAOS repository isolates large blocks of data into separate, unchanging

files.
