How I got started in XPages development! – My first steps into XPages were daunting because of how much I felt I didn't know, how far behind I thought I would be and how steep I was afraid the learning curve was.  I am happy to report that I am glad I took those first steps and am quite excited about using XPages.  I will explain my background in Notes, the resources I have used to become familiar with XPages and then demonstrate some XPages features and discuss the things that I find really powerful in XPages compared to traditional Lotus Notes development.

8.5.x Domino Server Availability and Tuning
Do you want to keep your Domino servers available 99.999% of the time? Is part of that goal to minimize cost and take economic advantage of what's new in Domino for Release 8.5 on? There are capacity planning and administrative actions, design decisions as well as a lack of ongoing and proactive tuning practices that threaten those goals. Gleaning from the struggles, successes and failures of several enterprise deployments using the latest Domino features and configuration options, this session will yield a vital list of items that may need
correction as well as procedural changes going forward.

John Curtis – IBM
Senior Technical Staff Member – Domino Development

Policies and Controls are King in the IT Security world

I came across an article by Roger Grimes over at Infoworld on how security policies and controls are the real power when it comes to IT security. Roger mentions the SANS 20 Critical Security Controls for Effective Cyber Defence , which are a great read for anyone looking at updating or auditing your policies for completeness. The SANS top 20 controls are a must for any organization: Inventory of Authorized and Unauthorized Devices Inventory of Authorized and Unauthorized Software Secure Configurations for Hardware and Software on Laptops, Workstations, and Servers Secure Configurations for Network Devices such as Firewalls, Routers, and Switches Boundary Defense Maintenance, Monitoring, and Analysis of Security Audit Logs Application Software Security Controlled Use of Administrative Privileges Controlled Access Based on the Need to Know Continuous Vulnerability Assessment and Remediation Account Monitoring and Control Malware Defenses Limitation and Control

Error 217 - Error creating product object on Domino 64 bit

I'd like to share something with you.   An error that you'll get if you are trying to use ODBC with Domino 8.5.1 64bit. It starts out with an agent error of Error 217.  The text of the error is "Error creating product object" You can read about it here on the Notes/Domino forum . You can find the solution here as well . I guess I'm now waiting for Domino 8.5.2 for a solution for this.   It would have been nice to have had this in the release notes.  It would have help me greatly.

Fun Little Earthquake

It's 1:45pm EST in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. We just had an earthquake.  Not strong enough to damage anything, but enough that I watched people run out of buildings. What a fun Wednesday.
