Software Development & Administration

We move your Lotus Domino applications
onto modern platforms

The Notes/Domino applications that have carried your business processes for decades are still critical. We map them from inventory through to data model, then rebuild them on secure, sustainable technology — without losing your history.

About us

The full lifecycle of enterprise applications

Teknonot has provided Lotus Notes/Domino development and administration services to corporate customers for more than 15 years. We take on the whole cycle — from analysing an application through building, deploying and running it day to day — and hold a high standard of delivery throughout.

Our main focus today is transformation: moving applications that run on Notes/Domino into modern development environments that are more secure, easier to support and easier to integrate. We do this while preserving the integrity of your history — existing records move across together with a data model designed to hold them.

Because we work in regulated sectors such as banking and pharmaceuticals, our processes are built around business continuity, data retention and auditability requirements.

  • Platform depth

    Experience on both sides of Notes/Domino — application development and server administration. The team designing the transformation also knows the source system.

  • History preserved

    We design a target data model for historical Notes data, and run the migration in verifiable, repeatable steps.

  • Enterprise discipline

    We work with the documentation, testing and business-continuity practices that regulated sectors require.

Our key focus area

Domino Transformation

Domino transformation is not rewriting a working application from scratch. It means understanding the existing business rules, forms, views and years of accumulated data, then rebuilding them on a modern architecture that matches them exactly. We run it in four stages.

Why organisations put transformation on the agenda

  • Platform lifecycle and support costs make long-term planning difficult.
  • Meeting current security and authentication standards is far simpler on a modern stack.
  • Dependence on the Notes client sits badly with the expectation of web and mobile access.
  • Integration with other enterprise systems costs much less with current API approaches.
  • Finding developers fluent in the platform gets harder every year.
  • Audit and reporting demands are much easier to satisfy on a relational data layer.
  1. 01

    Analysis and inventory

    We establish which applications are genuinely in use and which can be retired. Databases, forms, views, agents, the authorisation structure and external dependencies are all recorded. The output is a prioritised transformation roadmap.

  2. 02

    Target design and data model

    We design the move from a document-based structure to a relational model. A corresponding schema is built on MS SQL Server for historical Notes data, and screens and business rules are redefined for the target architecture.

  3. 03

    Build and data migration

    The application is rebuilt using Microsoft software technologies. Migration runs repeatably: every run verifies record counts and field mappings, and reports any differences.

  4. 04

    Go-live and support

    A parallel-running period lowers cutover risk. Once users are live, we stay on for application support and system administration.

What you have at the end

An application running on a current technology stack, reachable from web and desktop and able to connect to your corporate authentication — plus a relational data layer where all of your history remains queryable.

Services
