5 What is a Feature Pack? A Feature Pack delivers features, in addition to fixes. Our intent is to provide Feature Packs at a cadence of 3-4 per year o o Notes / Domino will be the baseline release and future updates will be delivered as feature packs on top of This provides a mechanism for continuous delivery and eases deployments There are core technical elements required to support the longevity of Domino applications and these are of the highest priority in the upcoming Feature Packs IBM s statements regarding its plans, directions and intent are subject to change or withdrawal without notice at IBM s sole discretion.

10 10 5/11/2017 Feature Packs An App Dev Perspective

11 11 Introductions

12 Feature Packs An App Dev Perspective Feature Packs work well with XPages XPages has been able to provide enhancements outside of the regular ND release cycle Many XPages enhancements have been provided on OpenNTF.org via the XPages ExtLib project * ExtLib enhancements have been re-integrated to ND core in all feature releases since 9.0 Traditional Model * XPages ExtLib is by far the most successful OpenNTF project to date with ~ 90K downloads *

13 Feature Packs An App Dev Perspective Up to now XPages enhancements come from two different sources 1. XPages core depends on new Notes/Domino core features e.g. Document encryption requires new Java APIs for access to the Domino user id vault and user id itself 2. ExtLib releases which are always based on ND capabilities available in most recent core release e.g. Responsive capabilities was easy because everything needed to integrate Bootstrap was already there Since Feature Packs allow new APIs, same model can be applied to FPs i.e. OpenNTF enhancements can be integrated into future ND Feature Packs

14 Feature Packs An App Dev Perspective Integrating OpenNTF enhancements into Feature Packs means A continuous delivery model offering a more frequent refresh cycle than before Less to do in terms of XPages Ext Lib upgrades, installs etc As a open source contributor you can get your favorite thing into a ND Feature Pack! Built-in granular control over the version of XPages you want to work with Feature Pack numbers will be added to the Minimum Supported Release menu in Domino Designer Each XPages property is versioned in a way that supports Feature Pack delivery New to FP8

15 What s in FP8? Domino Designer Bootstrap JDBC... Doc Encryption Tooling FP8

16 The Feature Pack Pipeline A Rich XPages Stream for Feature Packs XPages Extension Library has had 17 releases since GA meaning all of these are candidates for future FPs: RDBMS Support Bootstrap Responsive Capabilities DAS Enhancements Bluemix Tooling Community Contributed Features and Fixes plus features from the ND post internal pipeline Document encryption/decryption for the web inotes Calendar enhancements Swiper Extension Point for Domino Designer Miscellaneous Features and Fixes

22 Summary Document Encryption / Decryption on the Web What do you need for doc encryption on the web? 1. Notes/Domino FP8 is the minimum release 2. Domino IDVault must be running in your server environment 3. Domino Security Users must have privilege to do encryption Ref: Notes Admin > Server doc security tab 4. Document encryption must be enabled on a per-nsf basis (opt-in) App Config > Xsp Properties > General > Data Sources 22

23 Summary Document Encryption / Decryption on the Web Docs can be automatically decrypted by the XPages runtime Low code or No code required on the XPage Docs can be encrypted using secret or public/private keys Designer experience is simplified using wizards, pickers Encrypted Field Secret Key Picker Secret Keys 23

29 A Look to the Future But this is what is REALLY exciting An Eclipse upgrade means you can take advantage of Java 1.8 features in XPages, Custom Controls, Managed Beans Java Agents Java Design Element It gives us the opportunity to take advantage of modern Eclipse tooling Source control plug-ins (EGit, SCN, CVS etc) Updated Editors and Tooling (e.g. JavaScript enhancements, Bluemix) Latest Community Projects OSGi components requiring the modern implementations can be dropped in once again
