Malaysia – Data Centers – Garis Panduan Perancangan – OSC Online

TL:DR (Opinion piece) - Have a mission. Plan the Data Center. Find a site. Plan for the site. Speak to locals. Speak Bahasa Malayu? Pay for consultancy to navigate OSC 3.0 and a runner. Submit many, many, many, documents. Pay fees. Go back to Submit..., Wait...,Wait..., Did you get the KM C1? Did you follow IGL? Did you get the KM C2 rather? Then start again.

What we see and understand in AI today is laughingly simple but is growing incrementally. AI has not improved our lives apart from impressive meme's.

How to add Nomad to a Domino 14 update

TL:DR - Run the installer, choose custom, select Nomad, Verse and OnTime. Have a coffee. Nothing is ever simple especially when following HCL documentation. Daniel said it was so easy he did not even document it. Well, its not when using Linux. Getting Nomad for mobile is ok but the PWA web service is another story. The key is the file path for nomad-files. It needs to be in the Domino Program Directory!
