Understanding your application landscape and drawing meaningful conclusions from your data can be daunting, with tedious information gathering and expensive mistakes. Today’s business intelligence requirements demand a reduction in total cost of ownership while providing an increased return on investment and constant adaptation to new technology.
Harvard Business Review reports that many companies are “nowhere close” to understanding the value of their own data. “An effective transformation strategy starts with clearly articulating how data and analytics will be used to generate value and how the results will be measured”.
Without accurate HCL Domino application usage and design-complexity data, “one size fits all” decisions around application transformation become too expensive and frequently end up failing.
We’re proud to showcase panagenda iDNA Applications, a feature‑rich solution designed to tackle the Domino application challenges customers face every day.
iDNA Applications analyzes your Domino application landscape, visualizing the results in relevant dashboards which are easily understandable for application strategists, developers, and administrators alike.
Optimization to reduce and narrow scope!
iDNA Applications helps reduce IT costs by identifying unused and obsolete applications that can be archived and by providing clear visibility into application usage (reads vs. writes) by entity—enabling reductions in server load, network bandwidth, and storage costs.
Which Applications are worth investing in?
Modernization for extended functionality!
iDNA Applications usage and design overviews allow you to segment your applications into different categories of apps that:
- Are worth the investment or payback to revamp
- Can be deferred until later in your migration process
- Leverage design similarity to modernize one application and apply those changes across tens or even hundreds of applications with 95%+ code similarity, delivering major efficiency and cost savings.
- Will require mitigation due to code dependencies on LotusScripts, encryption, OS, 64-bit dependencies, and more
Which Applications are used by Notes rich clients vs. browsers?
Migration for moving forward!
Migrating all content to another platform or moving applications to the cloud can be costly and complex. iDNA Applications provides visibility into usage, code complexity, and similarity, enabling informed and actionable migration decisions.
iDNA Applications shows which applications:
- are well-suited for cloud or content migration – have few contributors but lots of readers
- are costly to migrate due to complex code, encryption or design dependencies
- use functionality supported only in the rich Notes client
What code complexity and dependencies exist?
Transformation for future-thinking adaptation
Your Domino landscape is well-positioned to support the adoption of modern collaboration and messaging platforms such as Microsoft 365, as well as emerging AI‑enabled technologies. iDNA Applications enables you to determine:
- existing or ideal integration points you may have, such as the number of application instances and/or similar design
- the various types of applications in your environment
- where and how to integrate based on existing client access methods
Whoever said “may you live in interesting times” was surely referring to the fast‑changing world of technology. With iDNA Applications, you can turn your complex Domino landscape data into actionable metrics that help define a strategic path forward—delivering business value while reducing cost and minimizing transformation effort.
