I guess in most cases I would suggest creating new applications and then performing data migration. I would investigate using LEI (Lotus Enterprise Integrator?) as a primary solution for data migration, but using Notes ODBC drivers could do the trick as well. It would be also possible to write Java code that does integration.
Since LEI isn't really nice tool I would most likely dump all the data to temporary database (with structure similar to Notes repository) before performing actual migration from there. That would allow for complete freedom when designing new database. I would definitely NOT try to run application using Notes as a database, mostly because it's not a real database as has been already mentioned. If some applications absolutely require migration time I would carefully test scalability of Notes backend before public release. -----Original Message----- From: pratap c [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 23 April 2007 05:41 To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Migrate Lotus Notes Apps to Coldfusion > >our group maybe getting the fun challange of migrating about 50-80 > >Lotus/Domino apps to Coldfusion.
