Data is at the heart of the digital transformation sweeping healthcare. Radical change requires a new foundation to handle the massive data demands of modern healthcare.

Time to market is crucial as you develop the next therapeutic breakthroughs, genomic insights, and intelligent clinical workflows. You need to deliver them now.

That’s why we’ve extended the power of our InterSystems IRIS Data Platform to address the unique characteristics of healthcare information. InterSystems IRIS for Health is the world’s first and only data platform engineered specifically for the rapid development of healthcare applications to manage the world’s most critical data.

I have a table with 5M rows, the table contains lab observation codes and display names, both columns have type varchar(2000) and both are indexed.

The query looks like:

select code_1_text, count(code_1_text)
  from demo.observation_lab
  group by code_1_text
  order by 2 desc

The table contains ~1000 distinct display names.

It takes 4 minutes for the query to complete on a VM with some pretty old Xeon, 4 cores, 32G RAM, NVME SSD and Linux on board.

Hi,

sometimes we need more then one Iris container at the same time. Since as containers they always have the same instance name shown in the management portal, it is hard to distinguish the management-portals of the instances. Searching for a way to make it easier I thought I could change the instance name shown in the management portal. I tried "iris rename" in different ways but could only change the configuration name which is shown by "iris list", not the name in the management portal.

I am writing a little app where I press a button on a Zen form. It calls a ZenMethod that uses zenPage.launchPopupWindow() to provide me a way to choose a file. I then click on an upload button that calls a csp cache language script file that runs on the server, that grabs the contents of the file and stuffs it into a global. I want it then close and return to the parent window to continue processing the contents of the file.

This article outlines the process of utilizing the renowned Jaeger solution for tracing InterSystems IRIS applications. Jaeger is an open-source product for tracking and identifying issues, especially in distributed and microservices environments. This tracing backend that emerged at Uber in 2015 was inspired by Google's Dapper and Twitter's OpenZipkin. It later joined the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) as an incubating project in 2017, achieving graduated status in 2019. This guide will demonstrate how to operate the containerized Jaeger solution integrated with IRIS.

I am trying to help another group within our organization access a SQL Table that I have created to populate Epic Department Data within our environment and came across the ability to use SQL Seach REST Interface using iKnow.

However, I am having issues trying to get it to work via POSTMAN before I hand off the solution...

the POST URL... https://<servername>/api/iKnow/latest/TESTCLIN/table/osuwmc_Epic_Clarity.DepartmentMaster/search

where osuwmc_Epic_Clarity.DepartmentMaster is the table

I have a custom Buffer class which is designed to capture written/printed statements to the device, to be able to transform the captured text to string or stream type. I have used this in ObjectScript to capture ObjectScript write statements and return a string. I would like to try to use this with a [ Language = python ] method as follows. This class will be called by a scheduled task.

Overview

The typeorm-iris project provides experimental support for integrating TypeORM with InterSystems IRIS, enabling developers to interact with IRIS using TypeORM’s well-known decorators and repository abstractions. This allows a more familiar development experience for JavaScript and TypeScript developers building Node.js applications with IRIS as the backend database.

While the project implements key integration points with TypeORM and supports basic entity operations, it’s not yet battle-tested or suitable for production environments.
