THE INTEC 4 STEP METHODOLOGY
1. PREPARATION
In order to create the optimum environment for your applications which caters for the present and future, we will gain an understanding of usage and complexity to determine the correct strategy. This may mean retiring, modernising, extending or migrating applications based upon a variety of factors. During this process we use two tools;
Application Insights from Panagenda
ApplicationInsights will give you a clear understanding of the number of Domino applications in your environment, who uses those applications, how much they use them and how complex they are. This information can be used to understand how employees are accessing applications and show the value of how important these applications are to your business. The information will also be used to prioritise the applications you want to spend time refreshing or making Web/mobile versions. A free entitlement license is available to unlock the 50 most used and 50 most complex application database instances.
RADAAR from Intec
RADAAR (Review and Analysis of Domino Application Architecture Robustness) gives a rich unbiased analysis of a Domino database that can be used to recommend improvements around performance, scalability, sizing and data integrity. This is free to use for Intec customers.
2. MIGRATION
Your current user community will be migrated along with Application Security settings intact. The future environment will be documented and agreed with you in preparation for the new server deployment. The new Domino server and Domain will be installed and prepared ready for applications to be migrated from the current environment. This includes configuring IBM best practice house keeping activities to ensure the server efficiency is optimum. Intec will work with you to ensure appropriate Back up procedures are in place and that consideration is given to recovery procedures in the event of a disaster.
3. APPLICATION FAMILIARISATION
Intec take the approach of working closely with key people within your organisation to gain high level knowledge of the applications by filling out an Application Support Document for each supported Application.
This template gives a basis for collecting ‘standard’ support information for each application based on internal knowledge – found through meetings with both key stake holders from the business and also any available technical personnel supporting the Infrastructure on a day to day basis. Any existing Standard Operating Procedures would be reviewed and suggestions for improvement would be made. It is also usual to review previously recorded Help Desk problems to check for repeating problems and determine whether improvements to the applications can prevent similar problems in the future.
4. ON GOING SUPPORT
Through Intec’s ISO9001 accredited procedure for Support Call Management we can demonstrate the normal process of logging calls in the Intec Help Desk system, daily monitoring of open calls and escalation process. We provide a monthly report with comprehensive information relating to support logged in the period
