IBM Lotus Domino and BlackBerry Applications

An Overview for Effectively Creating BlackBerry Applications that Interact with Domino Databases

Executive Summary

Only 18 percent of the world’s 50 million mobile professionals can access business data and applications wirelessly. Of these nine

million users, the majority can access only email. Extending the reach of critical business applications to mobile workers has been

proven to increase productivity and efficiency, generating measurable ROI. By mobilizing IBM® Lotus® Domino® applications and

enabling those gains, IT departments can leverage their investments and drive revenue, rather than cost. [1]

The BlackBerry® Enterprise Server is part of an integrated mobility solution that connects Lotus Domino databases to mobile users

with minimal effort and expense. With “Out of the Box” control of devices through IT Policies and secure connectivity to your

environment, the BlackBerry® Enterprise Solution ensures that your application data remains confidential.

The BlackBerry Enterprise Solution offers several free development options to enable applications for wireless usage. These include:

1. A full-featured Java™ Micro Edition (Java™ ME) development environment called the BlackBerry® Java™ Development

Environment (BlackBerry JDE)

2. BlackBerry® MDS Studio, a rapid application development (RAD) environment to extend existing Web Services, and

3. Optimizing web content for viewing on the BlackBerry® Browser.

简要介绍如何有效创建与Domino数据库交互的BlackBerry应用程序

IBM Lotus Domino and BlackBerry Applications

An Overview for Effectively Creating BlackBerry Applications that Interact with Domino Databases

The BlackBerry Mobile Data System

Mobilizing applications for the BlackBerry platform increases responsiveness to customers and partners by optimizing staff

resources. The median user of BlackBerry-mobilized applications reclaims 196 hours of productivity per year [2]. By linking

distributed groups more closely, the average efficiency of BlackBerry-mobilized teams increases 29 percent. These productivity

gains allow IT departments to step out of their traditional, reactive “cost center” roles and build enabling applications that increase

revenue across the entire workforce.

The BlackBerry® Mobile Data System is an optimized application development framework for the BlackBerry Enterprise Solution.

It provides application management, rapid time-to-market, and the data security required for using the wireless network to access

corporate applications.

Application and Device Management

The BlackBerry Enterprise Server functions as the middleware between the Domino server and the BlackBerry devices. As part of the

BlackBerry Enterprise Server, the BlackBerry Manager application provides the IT department with full control over their BlackBerry

environment, including the applications running on end-users’ devices.

Managing BlackBerry Browser Applications

The Access Control settings in the BlackBerry Manager provide granular control over BlackBerry users’ browser access. While other

devices allow only “all or nothing” control, the BlackBerry Manager provides administrators with complete authority over the Web

sites users can view. The BlackBerry Manager also allows IT to determine which content is pushed out to specific users and which

administrators can perform the push. Push Rules ensure that content is deployed to only authorized users in compliance with

company policies.

Managing Custom Java and Third Party Applications

The Software Configurations in the BlackBerry Manager enable consistent configuration of policies regulating third-party and

custom wireless applications. Using simple drop-down menus, administrators can mark wireless applications as optional, required,

or not allowed. The BlackBerry Manager then enforces these permissions across all devices in a designated group. Administrators

can use the All Users or User Groups tabs to inspect the configurations of each wireless device.

Managing BlackBerry MDS Studio

The BlackBerry Manager provides similar control over applications built with the BlackBerry MDS Studio rapid application development

(RAD) environment. With just a few clicks, administrators can quarantine or remove any application, schedule application deployment

on any number of devices or groups of devices, and upgrade BlackBerry MDS Studio applications on all or some devices.

概述

目前全球有5000万移动专业人员，但其中只有18%能够通过无线工具访问业务数据和应用。在这900万名用户

中，大多数只能使用电子邮件。事实已经证明，如果移动员工能够方便地访问和使用重要的业务应用，企业的

生产率和效率将显著提升，同时能实现可观的投资回报。通过为IBM

Lotus

Domino

应用程序提供移动支持

并实现上述优势，IT部门能够利用他们的投资推动收入增长，而不是仅仅增加成本。 [1]

BlackBerry

企业服务器是一个集成移动解决方案的一部分，该产品以极低的成本在Lotus Domino数据库和移

动用户之间建立了方便的连接。BlackBerry

企业解决方案通过其IT策略提供了对设备的“即插即用”控制，同

时提供与您的环境的安全连接，因此确保了应用数据的私密性。

BlackBerry企业解决方案提供了多种开发选项来支持应用的无线功能，包括：

1. 一个特性全面的Java

Micro Edition (Java

ME)开发环境，被称作BlackBerry

Java

Development Environment (BlackBerry JDE)

2. BlackBerry

MDS Studio, 这是一种快速应用开发(RAD)环境，能够扩展现有的Web服务

3. 对网络内容进行优化，以方便在BlackBerry
