In 1992 at the international technical support organization (ITSO), San Jose Center, an international team designed and implemented a client/server application to demonstrate how the client/server computing model can be implemented with IBM’s mainline transaction and database products in the OS/2 and MVS/ESA environments. At that time, the application used the best architecture, development tools and techniques, and products.
Five years later, new technologies, especially the Internet, have strongly modified the computer industry and company environments. By combining Web technologies with the vast resources of traditional information technology, companies around the world are shifting their business activities to the Internet. Doing business on the Internet is known as e-business.
To gain the advantage of the network computing model and environment, companies must choose to create completely new applications to exploit the Internet or migrate and enhance existing applications to support Web technologies. These applications, allowing the creation of expandable e-business solutions, are developed using the Network Computing Framework, an open, standards-based framework. As part of this framework, Domino and the Lotus connectors provide foundation services such as mail and collaboration to e-business applications.
In this book, we explore the migration of a client/server application to this new framework, using the Domino environment. In 1997 at the ITSO - San Jose Center, an international team migrated a 1992 application to the new architecture with three major objectives:
- Reuse the maximum of the existing application
- Open the application to the Internet
- Support mobile users
We explain the complete migration process, from design to production. This book will help you understand the steps required in a migration process and the questions to ask. It describes the different tools and technologies that we used to accomplish the migration and presents some alternative tools and techniques to investigate.
This book is intended for technical professionals who are planning to use Domino to migrate a client/server application to a network computing application.
