Domino 8.5 –Introducing XPages

What are XPages?– A new design element for Domino Designer– A runtime designed to generate modernWeb applications

Brings State-of-the-Art Web technology to Domino 8.5– Leverages Java Server Face based, proven Java runtime, from Lotus

Component Designer– XPages are designed for generating modern Web applications

• Built-in Web 2.0 features

Solves problems expressed by the Domino community– Known limitations are addressed

• UI/data separation, HTML generation control, server state, localization, extensibility, etc.

– Same modern rendering technology can target multiple clients



Even Great Looking Domino Web Apps Can Benefit from 8.5!

"XPage technology drastically reduces the time it takes us to develop Domino applications. We no longer need to spend time developing client side JavaScript/Ajax code since many of things we built in this manner are now core features of XPages. Additionally, the ability to more easily leverage standard techniques like CSS makes building a compelling user experience much easier."

Domino 8.5 – Simplify Notes identity management

Notes ID files have been a key consideration in managing end-user costs and administrator workload

However, they have also been the key to Notes/Domino’s highly secure reputation

Two new (optional) features will reduce the visible impact of the ID file:

Shared login– Notes users only need to remember a single password – their Windows password– Addresses key customer concern regarding Notes end-user overhead

Notes ID Vault– Reduce costs and improve turnaround time for lost IDs, forgotten passwords– Provides the ability to automatically reset Notes passwords, recover lost/damaged IDs


30

Domino 8.5 – Reduce storage costs

Storage costs consistently rate as one of the highest components of Domino TCO

New 8.5 features will help dramatically reduce disk usage, especially overlapping storage

Domino Attachment and Object Service (DAOS)– Allows for single instance storage for attachments/objects present in multiple mail files/

applications– Stored as files• Allows for incremental backups• No single point of failure• Easy for administrators, no monitoring of file size

Document compression– Allow compression of Notes documents (also in 8.0.1)

Disk space savings of 40 - 60%*– Significant cost reduction (storage, backup, etc.)

*Savings may vary depending on use


31

Domino 8.5 – Improve quality of service

Domino Configuration Tuner (DCT)– Ease the administrative tasks concerning misconfiguration that can

lead to costly performance and security issues– Identify problems– Suggest potential solutions– Detect, analyze, and address potential problems before they’re

‘discovered’…– Reduce support costs
