Configuration features

Domino 14.5 provides the following features and enhancements related to configuring users and servers.

Introducing "Domino IQ"

Domino 14.5 adds support for running an AI inference engine in the Domino backend. With this feature, new LotusScript classes can send text generation AI queries to a Domino server and retrieve responses back from the server, securely within a Domino environment. This feature is supported on Windows and Linux Domino servers. The Domino IQ server can either run a local inferencing engine on NVIDIA GPU hardware or connect to OpenAI V1-compatible completion remote endpoints.

Developers are welcome to try out the new AI capabilities by enhancing their own Domino applications with the new LotusScript classes. We encourage you to go beyond the use cases of summarizing or replying to mail and documents, and to share your experiences.

To get started, see Domino IQ.
