Was finally issued the draft of the Redbook for the migration from
Lotus Document Manager for Lotus Quickr and ECM.
We were waiting since the announcement made at Lotushere 2009 (see my article at the bottom) and now we can plan our future activities on migration.
Although it is still in draft (the final version is scheduled for August 31 2009), it makes very good methodology of approach to migration and how we must ask ourselves towards the customer who wishes to migrate.
I would propose to the introduction of the faithful Redbook, in order to give you a quick first read calmly, perhaps after the holidays.
Happy holidays to all!
Introduction "Change is inevitable, especially when it comes to the world of information technology.
Certainly, change brings obstacles and challenges to overcome. But it also brings
opportunities. This book is about change and the information that you need to cope and to
come out on top.
If you're reading this book, you are no doubt aware that IBM has announced the withdrawal of
Lotus Domino Document Manager (formerly known as Domino.Doc), with sufficient warning
for you to plan, to prepare, and to rise to the challenge of what to do next. Our goal with this
book is to get you started, to help you recognize and overcome the potential obstacles and
challenges, and to help you explore the opportunities opened up by alternate solutions.
There is no
exact equivalent to Domino Document Manager (DDM) that we can offer as your
next step. The options available are both less than DDM and more. Perhaps most
importantly, they are different. You'll have to make some mental leaps to go from what you're
used to with DDM to how things might be organized and presented in a replacement product.
We'll do our best to help you make those leaps and to make the adjustments as easy as
possible for your end users. And along the way, we'll also point out the benefits so that you
can say
“Yes, I know it doesn't look exactly the same, but look at what else you can do once
you learn the new way."
