IBM Connect Session: BP207 - Meet the Java Application Server you already own...

Last year was my first Lotusphere. I had a great pleasure visiting labs and talking to developers from IBM.

I have met to David Taieb and we were discussing about an idea (or a suggestion) about XPages. We are lacking a (distributed) back-end processing system for XPages. When you have to run a really long process in your application which could be a reporting, calculation or so forth, you don't have anything but to keep users waiting with an hour glass.

Experimenting DOTS task vs. Java Agent

DOTS (Domino OSGi Tasklet Service) project has been contributed into OpenNTF last year. Basically, it provides a way to create server tasks for Java developers.

This is huge. Basically we could run our Java code in a similar way with a couple of other techniques, but DOTS provide many advantages. I'll dive deep on this in a seperate blog post. For now, take it as a teaser :)

Test platform for IBM Connections...

I've been in UKLUG lately. I heard lots of discussions about test platform for IBM Connections.

People who wants to implement new deployments, develop and test widgets or customize user interface, all need to install Connections.

So I just wanted to blog about my test platform. I'm currently doing some Connections business and my customers are expecting UI customization, error trapping, configuration changes, etc. Therefore, I have installed a full Connections image on my computer.
