Notes/Domino/Traveler 14.5 is available

Domino 14.5 is out and there is not much to say ...
... because if you are running Domino 14.0 and have Auto Notify enabled, you should see the ProductInfo updated already.

Inside the Notes, Domino and Traveler Product Info documents you find details + links to release notes, what's new and other resources.
See the screen shot below.

There are exciting new features specially on the Domino side.
Some of them will need some detailed info later and I am covering most of it in my sessions at DACHNUG conference next week.

Domino Container project update

I have also pushed out the Domino Container project and I have updated all my servers already.
The Windows machines use AutoUpdate. Most of the Linux machines use the container image.

Along with the Domino 14.5 update, I added the REST API 1.1.4 to the container build.

Adding software means not only changing the software.txt, but also running an end to end automation test after building an image.
This ensures, software is downloadable, installs and runs.
Most of this process is fully automated and is executed before any Git hub repository update -- not just for software updates, but also changes in the project.

To upgrade a container based server, you just build a new image. The build menu remembers the selected software when you save the selection and picks the latest versions automatically for you at build time.
Below I have an example how that looked for me today when updating one of the DNUG Lab servers including all the add-on software.
