Map a Windows drive (Q:) to your Quickr server
Mon, Apr 16th 2012 8:12a Kim van den Berg You might know that Lialis has build WebDAV for Lotus Quickr, Notes databases and IBM Connections. WebDAV is a servlet on a Domino server that translates Quickr into the HTTP(S) WebDAV standard. Most of our clients are using apps that support WebDAV to sync files stored in Quickr to the tablets and phones for offline usage. But there is more to WebDAV because its an standard. There are more programs that support WebDAV out there, some good, some crap. Recently I tested Webdrive FTP client that s [read] Keywords: connections

Use WebDAV as Dropbox like solution for corporate use
Fri, Apr 13th 2012 7:10a Kim van den Berg D-Business WebDAV can be used as an on-premises alternative for Dropbox for corporate usage. Companies can create a Dropbox alike solution on corporate infrastructure without using could services. Clients need to setup a Domino server R853, for example in the DMZ. The Domino server OS is not relevant. For large implementations we advice Domino 64 bits. For each user a private Notes database will be created (db design can be blank). Users will not access this Notes database via the Notes c [read] Keywords: domino

Installing IBM Connections on Amazon EC2
Mon, Mar 5th 2012 5:13a Kim van den Berg Amazon EC2 is great is my opinion, but running IBM WebSphere and IBM Connections on an EC2 can become a nightmare if you are not aware of the following items. Every time you start/stop, reboot or change the instance type the instance computer name and the private IP address/DNS name is changed. Its possible to set the computer name fixed, but its not possible to set a fixed private IP address unless you take a VPC (also see this post). We are not going to use a VPC because of the costs.

Go paperless with WebDAV
Fri, Feb 3rd 2012 5:12a Kim van den Berg Go paperless with WebDAV sounds idealistic, but is not that difficult to manage.

Paperless office and paperless meetings have more advantages than just being environment-friendly: * eliminates risks associated with printing (business critical or confidential) information * supplies up-to-date information, independent location and meeting type (c [read] Keywords: connections

Convert to SQL: Phase out your Lotus Domino environment

Fri, May 27th 2011 12:08p Kim van den Berg As part of a SEO project, we start with investigating the keywords that we are going to use for optimization. Good keywords are keywords that are strong and will bring many visitors (usually general), and keywords that will bring aimed visitors (usually less strong). Ultimately we find about five keywords per weg page (one main keyword and four sub keywords), a mix of strong and aimed keywords.
