Not long after I started at Microsoft I got to work on a project called Tahoe - it was formed to some extent form another product I worked on, Site Server. At the same time there was a project internally known at Polar. Ultimately Tahoe won out and eventually became SharePoint and for its first few years I worked selling the product to enterprise customers. It was a hard sell to be honest with strong competition from companies likes Autonomy and Plumtree. Both of those products do different things which tells of the early problems establishing an identity for SharePoint. The product team kept improving it and look at it now - growing at over 35% and last financial year an $800m product. WOW! Why is it the new Lotus Notes though? Well when I started in IT, everyone wanted Notes. Everywhere you looked this product appeared a both an enterprise mail platform but more tellingly a departmental groupware solution. It defined the phrase groupware and was the scourge of IT departments as servers sprung up in whack-a-mole fashion. Now SharePoint holds that mantle. Every Microsoft Partner I speak with is doing SharePoint work and like their Notes brethren of 10 years ago, SharePoint consultants are in high demand. It’s fascinating to have seen the pendulum swing from the once unassailable Notes. It’s a good reminder of how things change - though not always as quickly as predicted. · I wonder how Ray Ozzie feels as he looks at Notes place in the market and SharePoint’s growth? I don’t mean that in a bad way...I just think it’s something else you wouldn’t have predicted 10 years ago. Ray Ozzie at Microsoft. Wow · SharePoint Online will bring an interesting new dynamic to the market as SharePoint specialists can rely on a Microsoft hosted service to sell departmental solutions quickly and easily and spend their time and their consultants time on big, hairy, complex SharePoint projects. Final random thought...when I started in IT, my Dad worked in the same company as a Lotus Notes administrator. As you can imagine, we had some fun when I moved to Microsoft and he maintained that Notes was best :)
We all know that SharePoint 2007 and Microsoft Search Server 2008 support Lotus Notes content source. So we can index the databases on Domino Servers. The original idea of SharePoint Search Admin (or MOSS Search Admin, MSA) comes from a customer request in Australia. They wanted to deal with Domino Document Manager, and they had thousands of Notes DBs to index. But in SharePoint Search Settings page, you need to manually add all these Notes dbs one by one. So I wrote MSA to batch add all these DBs. But later, I found MSA can solve many problems when you work on enterprise search solutions built on SharePoint, for example some troubleshooting work, provide some workaround to bugs... It's more and more useful, especially in large Notes envoriment. Yesterday a issue happened in my customer envoriment. After they created 500 content sources for 500 Notes DBs, they cannot create any new content sources any more. Okay, there's a 500 limit in content source per SSP. This is okay for file share and websites, because we can have 500 start address per content source. But things are very tough in Notes content source, you can only have ONE Notes DB per content source if you are using default content source creation page! In fact, SharePoint Lotus Notes content source can support multiple DB/Directory in single content source. The only reason we cannot do it OOB is: that Content source creation page are really poorly made. This can be workaround by using object model, exactly how MSA did. So now you can add up to 250,000 Lotus Notes DBs in one SSP! Well, if you are sure you won't hit our performance barrier. What about the future? In next major release of SharePoint Search Admin, I'll complete reorganize the UI, and add more useful functions to make it a powerful alternative to SharePoint Search Setting UI. Hope I can did better than System Center!
Nous dirons donc un sujet bien "a la mode" : Migration de bases Lotus Notes vers SharePoint 2007 Il est vrai que bien des societes ont deployes moult serveurs et sites SharePoint, et souvent avec reussite. Et pas n'importe lequel : Migrer un environnement Lotus Notes a la technologie SharePoint... Il y a 6 ans, j'assurais deja des projets où on evoquait la possibilite de remplacer bien des systemes de gestion electronique de connaissance/knowledge sharing via une technologie naissante comme SharePoint 2001. Avec le temps, evolution oblige, SPS 2003 s'est mis en concurrence naturelle avec Lotus Notes. Clairement, la matrice avantage / inconvenient entre SPS 200X et Notes 4/5/6 n'etait pas a l'avantage de SharePoint. Mais voila, les annees passent, Microsoft apprend, les technologies evoluent et SharePoint 2007 arrive. Createur de Lotus Notes qui quittera IBM pour creer Groove et qui se retrouve finalement Chief Technical Architect de ... Microsoft. Je n'ose meme pas me projeter sur les prochaines versions de SharePoint mais restons contemporains et revenons sur notre version actuel qu'est SharePoint 2007. Attention, je ne dis pas que Lotus Notes est fini, loin de la, mais voici la tendance actuelle : les demandes de migration sont nombreuses et correspondent rarement a du "Proof Of Concept" !!! Toute une famille de concepts fonctionnant a merveille sous Lotus Notes et/ou SharePoint 2007. Je m'explique : pour avoir cotoye bien longtemps le monde Lotus et avoir vecu l'evolution de SharePoint 2007, j'ai pu remarquer quelques points fondamentalement differents entre ces 2 technologies. Points qu'il vaut mieux savoir pour arriver a migrer d'une technologie a une autre. Fonctionnellement, il est tout a fait legitime d'envisager et de concevoir de migrer ses bases Notes. >>> Il faut plus favoriser l'approche native du produit et l'etendre au besoin des utilisateurs. Chercher a faire forcement correspondre un produit comme Notes ou SharePoint a un fonctionnement specifique est tres risque. Dans le dernier cas, il faut plutot s'orienter vers une approche "application specifique" que chercher a "tordre" l'application pour en faire quelque chose d'autre. Essayer donc de transformer un serveur SharePoint en une forme d'Exchange pro documentaire ... Il faut mieux preferer : · un couple SharePoint / Exchange C'est la que se trouve le "hic". Lotus et SharePoint 2007 ont 2 philosophies, 2 conceptions totalement opposes ! Bien sur, des bases Notes simples avec des workflows basiques se migrent rapidement via les outils/scripts de Microsoft : Lotus foisonne de Best Practices et de routine interne, comme tout produit, et associe a de bons scenarii fonctionnels, La realisation d'applications de premiere qualite n'est pas si complique, bien au contraire. Pour migrer d'une technologie A vers une autre B (genre Lotus vers MOSS), il faut
Here is a screen shot of my Notes mail (7.x) with the OCS list control. The 2005 toolkit needed to be updated due to new ActiveX controls.  So it all works. Now to get all the steps done to post the updated toolkit.
Sprint really does want the Instinct to be the best iPhone clone in the land, 'cause they're adding corporate email (Exchange and Lotus Notes) to it and a slew of other consumer phones through Sprint Mobile Email Work. The corporate email setup comes gratis with their Everything plans, or $9.99 separately. The other lucky phones receiving this blessing "in the coming weeks" are LG's Rumor and Fusic; the RAZR, RAZR2 and KRZR; Katana I and II and the 8400; and Sammy's A900, A900M and M500. More phones will get it later—all the details below. Access to Microsoft Exchange Server and IBM Lotus Notes Through Sprint Mobile Email Work Gives Sprint Customers More Device Choices for Checking Corporate Email on the Go OVERLAND PARK, Kan.—(BUSINESS WIRE)—June 19, 2008—Customers of Sprint (NYSE:S) can soon get mobile access to their corporate email accounts on select non-PDA Sprint phones such as the new Instinct by Samsung. Easy access to Microsoft Exchange Server and IBM Lotus Notes accounts will be available through Sprint Mobile Email Work, as an extension of Sprint Mobile Email's existing access to personal email accounts from popular Web-based providers such as AOL, Gmail, Windows Live and Yahoo! Mail. Sprint Mobile Email Work will allow users of the Instinct and other non-PDA phones, such as flip phones with more consumer-oriented features, to access both their corporate and personal email in one easy-to-use application, included at no additional charge in several Sprint pricing plans. "Sprint Mobile Email Work will allow customers to read and respond to their business email and look up work contacts from a wider variety of Sprint phones, including the new Instinct," said Kevin Packingham, senior vice president of product and technology development for Sprint. "With combined access to corporate and personal email in a single application on popular consumer-friendly phones, Sprint customers can increase productivity and stay connected whenever and wherever they want." Sprint worked with SEVEN to create Sprint Mobile Email Work, which allows customers to access Microsoft Exchange Server 2000, 2003 or 2007 accounts, or IBM Lotus Domino accounts. The service features an easy, one-time setup process: Sprint Mobile Email Work is preloaded on the Instinct, so customers simply select Email on the main Menu to get to Sprint Mobile Email, then click the Work tab and enter their server information, user name and password. Emails are then pushed to the user's phone as they arrive in their desktop mailbox. Users can read, delete, respond to and compose new emails. All changes made via the Sprint phone are automatically synchronized with the user's desktop mailbox. * Get alerts when new emails arrive
