HCL Domino 14.5: Secure AI & Rapid Application Development

Data sovereignty has become a non-negotiable for organizations worldwide. Governments, regulated industries, and enterprises rely on digital tools to drive productivity, but also need to ensure data privacy and digital independence.

In the face of evolving data protection laws and geopolitical uncertainty, organizations like yours are strategically focusing on mitigating the risks associated with third-party SaaS solutions to ensure your data remains within your borders and under your control—while enabling rapid application development to keep up with evolving business demands.

At the same time, the demand for AI-powered productivity has never been greater. AI has the potential to automate tasks, streamline workflows, and unlock fresh insights. However, without proper controls, there is the risk of exposing your organizational data to potential data privacy challenges.

HCL Domino+ for Sovereign Collaboration

HCL Domino+ addresses both imperatives—data sovereignty and AI driven productivity by providing a sovereign collaboration portfolio that lives entirely within your own on premises or private‑cloud environment.

AI That Works in Your Environment

HCL Domino IQ, a sovereign AI extension to the Domino platform is a game-changer, providing organizations with AI capabilities that operate within their on-premises or private cloud infrastructure, ensuring sensitive data remains under their control.

Whether it’s automating tasks, analyzing data, or improving workflows, Domino IQ can enable your organization to have more fine-grained control over AI investments and, additionally, remove your reliance on third-party cloud-based services.
