Turn your Lotus applications into Web services
As more and more applications use Web services, exposing your Lotus applications within this architecture will keep costs down, increase speed to market, change nothing, and integrate everything. This tutorial will show you how to turn your existing Lotus applications into portable Web services. We'll use the Application Developer configuration of WebSphere Studio to develop and test the Web service, and then deploy the Web service to an IBM WebSphere Application Server. The Web service we'll create will access a Lotus Domino database through an agent written in LotusScript.
