App. development in Lotus Notes / Domino

["Vijosh.A" <vijosh@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

 

We are at the initial stages of a project in e-commerce. The project involves developing an inventory application which also needs access from anywhere in the world. Security and speed  is a prime concern. Also later the client wants net based  ordering etc. etc.. Apart from this they also want an intranet and a messaging system to be set up.  The intranet will also have access to the main application.

 

IBM is strongly recommending DOMINO + Lotus Notes for this purpose.

 

Can anybody suggest as to what all things we should consider before deciding upon the tool and the web server for this project?  And is Domino/Notes a really good combination? Are there any known issues that have come up while using this combination ? What is the rating of  Domino / Notes with respect to other web server / tool combinations like ASP/Java ... ?

 

Thanks in Advance

 

Vijosh
