IBM Domino

Low cost of ownership

• Allows you to choose from a variety of supported hardware platforms, operating systems and directory and client access. You can deploy a broad range of configurations to meet your IT strategy and budget.
• Provides an administration client and web browser interface, enabling smooth, efficient management of IBM Domino servers.
• Includes Domino Domain Monitoring, a problem-determination resource that shows the status of multiple servers for one or more domains. You can recognize critical server and client issues within minutes.
• Includes the Domino Configuration Tuner that helps resolve server misconfigurations, performance bottlenecks and security issues.
• Minimizes help desk visits with Smart Upgrade technology, performing upgrades of IBM Notes® from a central location. Users can recover passwords through the Notes ID vault.

Minimized infrastructure

• Decrease the need for hardware-oriented resources that can consume an IT budget, such as power consumption, memory, data storage and labor required for administrative tasks.
• Reduce required disk usage and network input/output using advanced compression features for applications containing documents that include rich text and graphics images, and those containing lengthy documents.
• Minimize disk space and improve performance. The Domino attachment and object service stores a single copy of an attachment on the server. The IBM Domino server manages attachments, referring to the same file from multiple applications.

Rich application environment

• Deploy custom-built or third-party applications that support a wide variety of critical business processes such as customer support, customer relationship management, sales force automation, human resources, project management, billing systems and more.
• An integrated workflow engine supports applications that help simplify processes based on paper documents or spreadsheets, or that require a high level of compliance.
• An integrated data store provides security-rich storage that can be extended to support enterprise resource planning and transactional and relational systems.
• Deploy social applications, teamrooms and discussion databases.
• IBM Domino-based applications can be accessed through IBM Notes, a web browser or mobile device. You can quickly build your own custom applications, use application templates or choose from thousands of applications available from IBM Business Partners®.

Security-rich

• Public key infrastructure authenticates IBM Notes users and servers, verifies digital signatures and encrypts messages and applications, including individual fields within applications.
• Uses Internet certificates based on the x.509 certificate format.
• Helps you work with government agencies that require products that conform to the FIPS 140-2 standard.
• Controlled by access control lists. You can specify an access level, access level privileges, a user type and one or more roles.

High availability

• Clustering technology allows you to tie multiple IBM Domino servers together to create a seamless experience to a highly available, high-performance messaging or application environment.
• Users will have the most up-to-date business data as applications replicate throughout servers continuously, synchronizing for consistency.
