Redbook Abstract
Lotus Solutions for the Enterprise, Volume 4 Lotus Notes and the MQSeries Enterprise Integrator, SG24-2217-00
  Abstract
Domino provides a variety of integration techniques that allow application developers to meet the challenge of new requirements by leveraging the power of Lotus Domino while at the same time capitalizing on existing software investments. The Domino features fall into two categories: * Data-oriented tools that can replicate data between Lotus Notes and relational databases or provide database query and update facilities * Tools to link or integrate Lotus Notes applications with transactional or other applications that run on non-Notes systems This redbook describes the IBM MQSeries Enterprise Integrator for Lotus Notes (MQEI). The MQEI makes the task of developing and managing an extended enterprise application more straightforward. It enhances the Lotus application development language with special extensions and databases that enable you to integrate Lotus Notes applications with existing MQSeries, IMS, and CICS applications. This redbook is the result of a practical implementation of an extended enterprise application. We examine the elements required to integrate Domino and Lotus Notes applications with our existing enterprise applications by using MQEI. We discuss design issues that we considered during the implementation. We describe in detail how we implemented the application on the intranet, using a Lotus Notes client, and on the Internet, using a Web browser. We also compare the MQEI with other ways of connecting Lotus Notes to enterprise applications. This book is written to help you understand the various aspects of the MQEI. The book covers the subject from the conceptual view to an actual Lotus Notes sample application developed using the MQEI. We expect there to be three different audiences for this book: information system architects, Lotus Notes developers, and enterprise developers who want to connect Lotus Notes to their enterprise back-end systems.
