A technical blog about HCL Connections, HCL Domino and other stuff
In part 4 I’ll look in-depth at the script which forms the entrance to all the stuff that’s built into the domino-docker project: domino_container. This script lets you work with the Domino server without ever needing a docker command
Continue readingIn part 2 we created a Domino container image. Now we want to start the image. In this part, I’ll show you what to do to make running, restarting and stopping images super easy.

Continue readingGithub houses a great project: domino-docker. Regretfully, this project misses one thing: Good documentation. In a series of 6 articles I hope to fix this. We start with the first part: Why run Domino inside a container?

Googling the error didn’t help me at all, so I decided to write this blog article about it. Hopefully this article will help someone who’s running into the same problem.

We won’t just look at the products, but also show what to do with the products and how to integrate AI with Domino and Connections. I will present a session on Connections 7 with a sneak peek at Connections 8 on Monday 31st of May

HCL needed to step in to solve this and they did. This post shows how I combined Domino 12’s new Backup solution with Borg backup, an open source backup solution, to create a perfect Backup solution for Domino.
Continue readingIn my previous post I looked at the performance of the Domino V12 HTTP task in decrypting/encrypting SSL traffic. One of my biggest findings was the huge influence of the elliptic curves on the performance. In this post I dive deeper in the differences between the various curves and compare Domino 12’s best to Domino 11’s best.

In my previous article I described how HCL solved the 1st problem with the new Certificate Manager in Domino 12. Now I look at the 2nd reason. SSL performance.
