To better understand Streams in IRIS I'll start with a short
In the beginning (before IRIS), there was just basic access to external devices.
The 4 commands OPEN, CLOSE, READ, WRITE still work and are documented
by Introduction to I/O in detail.
Especially for files, this is a direct access to your actual file system.
You have to take care of any status or other signal in your code.
Also, any code conversion or similar is up to you.
Hi all,
It's me again 😁. In the pervious article Writing a REST api service for exporting the generated FHIR bundle in JSON, we actually generated a resource DocumentReference, with the content data encoded in Base64
Question!! Is it possible to write a REST service for decoding it? Because I am very curious what is the message data talking about🤔🤔🤔
OK, Let's start!
1. Create a new utility class datagen.utli.decodefhirjson.cls for decoding the data inside the DocumentReference
Class datagen.utli.decodefhirjson Extends%RegisteredObject

}I am trying to add Plotly Bar graph in a div to a CSPpage. I am working in IRIS 2022.1. I created persistent class.
I copied relevant code into github repo:
oliverwilms/iris-python-plotly
iris-python-plotly/csp/otwPlotly.csp at master · oliverwilms/iris-python-plotly
Set tPlotlyDiv = ##class(dc.python.test).PlotlyDiv(trnYear,trnMonth)
This module enables integration between Quarkus-based Java applications and InterSystems IRIS’s native performance monitoring capabilities.
It allows a developer to annotate methods with @PerfmonReport, which triggers IRIS’s ^PERFMON routines automatically around method execution, generating performance reports without manual intervention.
@PerfmonReportIn my previous article, Using LIKE with Variables and Patterns in SQL, we explored how the LIKE predicate behaves in different scenarios, from Embedded SQL to Dynamic SQL, and what happens to performance when wildcards and variables come into play. That piece was about getting comfortable writing a working LIKE query. But writing SQL that works is only the starting point. To build applications that are reliable, scalable, and secure, you need to understand the best practices that underpin all SQL, including queries that use LIKE.
This article takes the next step. We’ll look at a few key points to help strengthen your SQL code, avoid common pitfalls, and make sure your SELECT statements run not just correctly, but also efficiently and safely. I'll use SELECT statements with LIKE predicate as an example along the way, showing how these broader principles directly affect your queries and their results.
*This is what Gemini came up with for this article, kinda cute.
I have a custom defined priority field that is being stored as a number type
<record name="LocalClinicalMeSHTerms" type="serial">
<field name="LocalClinicalExpertiseCodedValue" type="{CODETYPE}" codeFamily="HSPD" codeTable="LocalClinicalExpertise" codeScheme="{MASTER}"/>
<field name="LocalCliniclDisplayOrder" type="number"/>
</record>However, within the overviewIndividual.cls form
The built-in %JSONExport() fails with circular references in deeply nested objects. How can I write a custom serializer that supports circular detection and reference tracking?
Some languages have the concept of a garbage collector for automatic memory management. I'd like to know if something like this exists in InterSystems Caché in the context of routines, %CSP.REST, or %CSP.Page.
The question arises from the %Close() method of the %RegisteredObject class. This indicates that I need to manually clear the object from memory if it's no longer in use, or in the web context, if the request has completed. Is this correct? Or am I completely wrong?
Thank you!
I need to build an integration solution that reads messages from a Kafka topic. The topic has 3 partitions and contains several million messages.
For certain reasons, I can only use the standard EnsLib.Kafka.Service class and cannot use either KafkaClient or Python.
To measure performance and collect statistics I created a simple key + timestamp table with no indexes (so it is unlikely to be a bottleneck). Next, I started an instance of EnsLib.Kafka.Service. In the OnProcessInput method, I receive a message, extract the key from it, get the current time, and write the row to the table.

This anthropic article made me think of several InterSystems presentations and articles on the topic of data quality for AI applications. InterSystems is right that data quality is crucial for AI, but I imagined there would be room for small errors, but this study suggests otherwise. That small errors can lead to big hallucinations. What do you think of this? And how can InterSystems technology help?
The ObjectScript language has incredible JSON support through classes like %DynamicObject and %JSON.Adaptor. This support is due to the JSON format's immense popularity over the previous dominance of XML. JSON brought less verbosity to data representation and increased readability for humans who needed to interpret JSON content. To further reduce verbosity and increase readability, the YAML format was created. The very easy-to-read YAML format quickly became the most popular format for representing configurations and parameterizations, due to its readability and minimal verbosity. While XML is
I want to build an event store using raw globals and replay events for rebuilding state. Can I hook into IRIS journaling or write my own event log and replay engine?
We want to use IRIS as a backend for a lightweight blockchain or DLT. Can we model blocks using deterministic globals and implement consensus (PBFT, Raft) externally while using IRIS as the ledger?
I need to ingest streaming data over WebSockets. How can I create a custom inbound adapter for IRIS productions that supports many concurrent socket connections?
We require user-specific row access (row-level security). How can we enforce this in SQL and ObjectScript using custom class parameters and dynamic WHERE clause injections?
We’re ingesting high-volume HL7 messages and converting them to FHIR in near-real-time. How do we design a streaming ETL pipeline using interoperability (productions) that scales horizontally?
For space optimization, we want to apply a domain-specific compression algorithm to binary stream data before writing to %Stream.GlobalBinary. Is it possible to override or extend stream classes to include compression/decompression?
We use Apache Flink for complex event processing. Is there a way to integrate IRIS (as a source/sink) with Flink’s streaming API, possibly using the IRIS Native API or JDBC?
What are the best practices for creating a multi-tenant app in IRIS? How can I isolate data per tenant using namespaces, control resource usage, and delegate access via roles securely?
We’re encountering occasional deadlocks when accessing persistent objects. How can I trace lock acquisition and identify cyclic dependencies in real time?
We want to expose both REST and GraphQL endpoints over the same data models. Is there a way to implement or integrate GraphQL with ObjectScript and map to class methods?
I have large joins involving millions of rows. How can I profile and tune the SQL engine’s parallel execution? Are there EXPLAIN plan features to inspect threading and task distribution?
When writing dynamic SQL queries using embedded SQL, how can I force or ensure that filter conditions are pushed down to the data access layer rather than evaluated in memory?
We run mixed workloads in IRIS. For analytical queries, are bitmap indexes effective? What are the caveats for concurrent OLTP updates, and how should I maintain bitmap indexes efficiently?
The built-in task manager is limited. How can I implement a robust, distributed job scheduler in IRIS with support for dependencies, CRON syntax, and failover recovery?
We need to authenticate users via Azure AD or Okta. What are the best practices to implement federated authentication using OAuth2/OIDC or SAML in IRIS Management Portal or custom web apps?
For geographically distributed nodes using async mirroring or ECP, how can I detect and resolve data conflicts manually (custom logic) while maintaining eventual consistency?
