What is the actual valid version with ML ??

I have a persistent class (GetOrgUpdatesResponse) that has a property which is a list of another persistent class (Organization).

What would be the best way to cascade deletes so that on deletion of a parent row each object in the list property is then also deleted? 

I have included a sample of my classes here for clarity

Class Integration.ISIS.BO.SyncOrg.Custom.GetOrgUpdatesResponse Extends (%Persistent, Ens.Response)
{

Property Organizations As list Of Organization;// Cascade DeletionProperty NextUpdateBatchID As%String;Property ResultStatus As%String;
}

Picture a dark room. The only light comes from a wall of displays and a blinking prompt that politely informs you:

“LINK TO M-U5K-3T: HIGH LATENCY – DIRECT CONTROL DISABLED.”

Perfect.

You are supposed to be a Rover Commander in the Musketeer Corps. Somewhere absurdly far away, you have an autonomous unit parked on a hostile exoplanet. It wants you dead, but it’s also covered in minerals that could fund a small civilization.

The ore on M-U5K-3T is everywhere. Unfortunately, everything else on the surface is actively trying to kill you.

So, we don't pilot. We script.

Hi developers!

Observing the avalanche of AI-driven and vibe-coding developer tools that have been appearing lately almost every month with more and more exciting dev features, I was puzzled whether it is possible to leverage it with InterSystems IRIS. At least to build a frontend. And the answer - yes! At least with the approach I followed.

Here is my recipe to prompt the UI vs InterSystems IRIS Backend:

1. Have the REST API on the IRIS side, which reflects some Open API (swagger) spec.
2. Generate the UI with any vibe-coding tool (e.g., Lovable) and point the UI to the REST API endpoint.
3. Profit!

Here is the result of my own exercise - a 100% prompted UI vs IRIS REST API that allows to list, create, update delete entries of a persistent class (Open Exchange,frontend source, video):

What is the recipe in detail?

Hi developers. Just want to share with you a finding that might save you a few important minutes of your developer life with InterSystems IRIS.

But!

It should work; you deployed the REST API correctly, and everything is just in place.

What can go wrong?

Introduction

The standard %Net.HttpRequest library in InterSystems IRIS is powerful and comprehensive, but it can be verbose for simple operations. Writing an HTTP request often requires several lines of code to instantiate the class, configure the server, the port, HTTPS, add headers, and finally send the request.

When testing in the terminal, this configuration quickly becomes too heavy, and usually ends up with the creation of temporary methods...

FastHTTP was designed to address this need. This utility class provides a fluent and concise interface to perform HTTP calls in a single line, while automatically handling the underlying complexity (SSL/TLS, URL parsing, JSON encoding, headers, etc.).

Have you ever needed to change an IP or port before deploying an interface to production? Needed to remove items from an export? What about modifying the value(s) in a lookup table before deploying? Have you wanted to disable an interface before deploying? What about adding a comment, category, or alert setting to an interface before deploying to production?

If you’ve ever needed to make any changes to an interface or lookup table before deploying to production, then Export Editor is for you!

Export Editoris a Python/WSGI web application that provides a method for editing exports before

Hi Community!

@Joan Pérez published a review that it is not very clear what applications are available for InterSystems Package Manager. Thanks Joan! Indeed it deserves a post.

There at least two ways I know to showcase them:

1. Run find command in zpm:

Hi Community,

 ⏯  InterSystems IRIS & IRIS Health as a Managed Service @ Ready 2025 

One objective of vectorization is to render unstructured text more machine-usable. Vector embeddings accomplish this by encoding the semantics of text as high-dimensional numeric vectors, which can be employed by advanced search algorithms (normally an approximate nearest neighbor algorithm like Hierarchical Navigable Small World). This not only improves our ability to interact with unstructured text programmatically but makes it searchable by context and by meaning beyond what is captured literally by keyword.

IRIS makes SIEM systems integration simple with Structured Logging and Pipes!

Challenges of real-time AI/ML computations

We will start from the examples that we faced as Data Science practice at InterSystems:

• A “high-load” customer portal is integrated with an online recommendation system. The plan is to reconfigure promo campaigns at the level of the entire retail network (we will assume that instead of a “flat” promo campaign master there will be used a “segment-tactic” matrix). What will happen to the recommender mechanisms? What will happen to data feeds and updates into the recommender mechanisms (the volume of input data having increased 25000 times)? What will happen to recommendation rule generation setup (the need to reduce 1000 times the recommendation rule filtering threshold due to a thousandfold increase of the volume and “assortment” of the rules generated)?
• An equipment health monitoring system uses “manual” data sample feeds. Now it is connected to a SCADA system that transmits thousands of process parameter readings each second. What will happen to the monitoring system (will it be able to handle equipment health monitoring on a second-by-second basis)? What will happen once the input data receives a new bloc of several hundreds of columns with data sensor readings recently implemented in the SCADA system (will it be necessary, and for how long, to shut down the monitoring system to integrate the new sensor data in the analysis)?
• A complex of AI/ML mechanisms (recommendation, monitoring, forecasting) depend on each other’s results. How many man-hours will it take every month to adapt those AI/ML mechanisms’ functioning to changes in the input data? What is the overall “delay” in supporting business decision making by the AI/ML mechanisms (the refresh frequency of supporting information against the feed frequency of new input data)?

This is an excellent candidate for a developer community post (like Dev.to, Medium, or the InterSystems Community). It bridges the gap between high-level architecture and hands-on implementation.

Here is the summarized article format.

Building a Robust Asynchronous Queue Manager with InterSystems IRIS and Angular

As applications scale, handling heavy computational tasks synchronously becomes a bottleneck. Whether it's processing large data sets, sending high-volume emails, or managing API integrations, a decoupled architecture is essential.

I’ve recently developed %ZQueue, a process-based queue

Project Overview:

The Clinical Staff Master Data Management (CSMDM) system is a full-stack healthcare integration application built on InterSystems IRIS for Health. It centralizes and standardizes clinical staff metadata into a single authoritative repository, exposed through RESTful CRUD APIs and reusable backend methods.

The platform eliminates fragmented lookup tables and hardcoded mappings that commonly cause errors in HL7 and FHIR integration workflows, ensuring data consistency and interface reliability.

Application to Other Domains:

This approach can be applied to other domains such as

Hi everyone, 

This is the first time I'm dealing  with a request of modifying a variable value in a UDF OnSQLTrigger on InterSystems TrakCare.

I can't find any documentation to address this issue, but basically, my goal is to modify the value of one of the fields in a table when it is first inserted. 

This is basically what the code should do, namely, to change the content of the %d variable at a specific key. 

I have done quite a bit of debugging and seen that the %d has been correctly modified after I set %d(51) = <something>, but the value saved in the database it is still the original %d(51)

Hi developers!

I'm testing vibecoding with ObjectScript and my silicon friend created a code-block that got me thinking "what's wrong"?

Here is the piece of code:

for i=0:1:(json.%Size()-1) {

set p = json.%Get(i)

if (p="value1")!(p="value2") {

quit1
}

AI wanted to quit from a method with a return value. Good intention, but bad use of the command.

And ObjectScript compiler compiles this code with no error(?) (syntax linter in VSCode says it's a syntax, kudos @Brett Saviano ).

But in action, it produces <COMMAND>, of course.

Wanted to share with you as this is a good case where return comma

Hi Developers!

Currently I have 2000+ lines in a class, and I think it's a lot already? What are the best practices? 

if 10K lines OK? How do you cope with it? Please share?

Greetings,

As a long time Cache developer is there a way to get a copy of the Cache Studio that supports IRIS 2024.3? I do not have a WRC account? I need Studio just to experiment, not to build commercial software.

Thank you,

Hi, Community!

👩‍⚕️If you need to access clinical data at scale, the InterSystems Bulk FHIR Coordinator can help!

Using the InterSystems Bulk FHIR Coordinator to Extract Clinical Data

We use local containers  a lot for evaluation and development with Health Connect and other IRIS based applications.

When evaluating Podman Desktop on Windows as replacement for Docker Desktop, we are experiencing an issue with the durable %SYS:

The only way it works is when we use a named volume which then is located inside the WSL-Podman-Machine under /var/lib/containers/storage/volumes/... 
With Docker Desktop we could simply bind-mount a folder inside our workspace, and could browse the folders inside the durable %SYS, this does not work with podman, IRIS won't start because of security
