The product was originally the synthesis of technologies IBM acquired from two companies: the first, an American company called Databeam, provided the architecture to host T.120 dataconferencing (for web messaging) and H.323 Multi-Media Conferencing; the second was Ubique, an Israeli company whose software technology provided the "presence awareness" functionality that allows people to detect which of their contacts are online and available for messaging or conferencing.
Lotus Sametime client software is available for Microsoft Windows, Linux, and Apple Macintosh. The Lotus Sametime server runs on Microsoft Windows, IBM AIX, i5/OS, Linux and Solaris. Lotus Sametime software is included in the "Open Referent" systems sold in Eastern Europe and Russia by Vienna-based VDEL and Poland-based LX Polska that are "Microsoft-free".
One of the features is IBM Lotus Sametime Gateway, which adds support for communication with users of AOL, Yahoo, Google Talk and various XMPP based Jabber communities. Lotus Sametime is built on the Eclipse platform, allowing developers familiar with the framework to easily write plug-ins for Lotus Sametime.
