AD215 - Advanced Coding Techniques for IBM Lotus Domino in J2EE

Bob Balaban walked us through the perils of coding Java locally and remote against a Domino server. In essence he reminded us, that there is no silver bullet or magic bean. When deciding how to code one must establish metrics for the task at hand to find the fastest solution. One lesson learned: obtaining a local session is very time consuming compared to keep a remote session open. However if your operation is long, that might not matter.
Bob raised hope, that he might release his famous session manager as OpenSource.


What I liked:
Bob's presentation style is a ingenious blend of deep technical understanding with a dry humor. He makes his points crystal clear.

What I didn't like:
The insight, that I know less than I wished for
