Lotus Domino Designer 8 Help - Planning a composite application

APPLICATION DESIGN

Planning a composite application
A major new enhancement in IBM® Lotus® Notes® Release 8 is the support for composite applications, a key element within IBM's service oriented architecture (SOA) and contextual collaboration strategy. Using IBM® Lotus® Domino(TM) Designer, developers can extend Notes applications to be Notes components in composite applications. A composite application can include any combination of Notes components and Eclipse components. The ability to combine multiple technologies into a single application provides significant business value: It enables companies to protect and extend their existing assets with increasing degrees of flexibility, and to respond quickly and cost effectively to their emerging business requirements, with applications that are significantly easier to assemble than alternative application development environments.
