Hi,
I almost managed to connect myself from nodejs to IRIS via intersystems-iris-native, but the connection failed.

Columnar storage is one of the newer offers provided by InterSystems IRIS. Unlike traditional row-based storage, it optimizes query processing by storing data in columns rather than rows, enabling faster access and retrieval of relevant information.

A couple of articles have been written on when it should be used to give a system the biggest boost, how to create tables like that using SQL
CREATETABLEtable (column1 type1, column2 type2, column3 type3) WITH STORAGETYPE = COLUMNAR -- ex 1CREATETABLEtable (column1 type1, column2 type2, column3 type3 WITH STORAGETYPE = COLUMNAR) -- ex 2and even the performance tests.
As we all know, InterSystems IRIS is a multi-model DBMS and it gives seamless access to the same data using relational and object access. So the former is covered in other articles, but what about the latter?
Translated from the Spanish Community Article Contest.
Following the latest programming contest on OEX I had some surprising observation.
There were almost exclusive applications based on AI in combination with pre-cooked Py modules.
But digging deeper, all examples used the same technical pieces of IRIS.
Seen from point of view of IRIS it was pretty much the same whether searching for text
or searching for images or other pattern. It ended in almost exchangeable methods.
This reminds me my private situation at home. My wife and my daughter maintain an

Hi all!
How can I get the ODBC drivers for IRIS 2024.1 if I am only using IRIS 2024.1 Community Edition?
This page gives you the information: "The official location for customers to download the latest released and fully supported InterSystems IRIS driver packages is the WRC download site." My first thought on this is: Why does Intersystems make it so difficult for users to use their database? Why is the ‘official’ driver package hidden behind a login wall? Shouldn't Intersystems be happy if someone wants to work with their database, wants to connect?
Any Way: Community Edition users are di

Hi Community,
Watch this video to see how HL7® FHIR® Implementation Guides allow you to restrict or extend APIs, resources, and terminologies:
New in version 2023.3 (of InterSystems IRIS for Health) is a capability to perform FHIR profile-based validation.
(*)
In this article I'll provide a basic overview of this capability.
If FHIR is important to you, you should definitely try out this new feature, so read on.
Hi there,
I am interested to execute ObjectScript commands from external language. I saw that IRIS provides the irisnative library for this.
I am using Windows and 8-bit IRIS server (due to compatibility with old software I need to use 8-bit instead of Unicode).
I tried to execute irisnative for Javascript and for python, without success, as I explained in my previous questions.
I would like to ask you whether Intersystems provides an API to execute commands from external scripts (the same as Visual Studio Code does when I execute commands like "Import and Compile", etc.).
Is there a lan
Is there an api for 'Is this user log-in?' and 'log-in this user with this id and password'?

Hi Community
In this article, I will introduce my application irisChatGPT which is built on LangChain Framework.
First of all, let us have a brief overview of the framework.
The entire world is talking about ChatGPT and how Large Language Models(LLMs) have become so powerful and has been performing beyond expectations, giving human-like conversations. This is just the beginning of how this can be applied to every enterprise and every domain!
Beginning with the release of InterSystems IRIS® data platform 2022.3, InterSystems corrected the license enforcement mechanism to include REST and SOAP requests. Due to this change, environments with non-core-based licenses that use REST or SOAP may experience greater license utilization after upgrading. To determine if this advisory applies to your InterSystems license, follow the instructions in the FAQ linked below.
This table summarizes the enforcement:

To disable the timeout, set the query timeout to disabled in the DSN settings:
Windows Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Data Sources (ODBC) > System DSN configuration
If you check Disable query timeout, the timeout will be disabled.
If you want to change it on the application side, you can set it at the ODBC API level.
Set the SQL_ATTR_QUERY_TIMEOUT attribute when calling the ODBC SQLSetStmtAttr function before connecting to the data source.

Hi,
I am using Windows 10 and I cannot find an installation source for the irisnative python library. I tried to install the wheel file provided by intersystems on github (https://github.com/intersystems/quickstarts-python/).
c:\wc\quickstarts-python\Solutions\nativeAPI_wheel>pip install irisnative-1.0.0-cp34.cp35.cp36.cp37.cp38.cp39-none-win_amd64.whl
ERROR: irisnative-1.0.0-cp34.cp35.cp36.cp37.cp38.cp39-none-win_amd64.whl is not a supported wheel on this platform.
Is irisnative supported on Windows 10 ? The purpose is to execute ObjectScript command from external python code.

It's Friday and a long weekend is upon us, so let's have a round of code golf!
Nowadays, it's rare to find a text message without at least one emoji. 😃😄😎🙂😊😀😁😆😂
But back in the day, people had to be creative to express their emotions in text. They would use emoticons, which are symbols made up of keyboard characters :^)=])B).
Our challenge for today is to create a function that receives a string as argument and returns the total number of smiling faces or happy faces.
Each smiley face must have one smiling mouth, which should be marked with ), ], }, D or >.
A smiley face can have a pair of eyes but it does not have to. Valid characters for eyes are :, ;, 8, B or =.
A nose is optional, and can be represented these characters: -, ^, c, o and ~.
Valid smiley face examples:
:) :D ;-D :~) :‑) :-] =)
:] :-> :> 8-) :D 8‑D )
8) :-} :} :o) :c) :^) =]
:‑D 8D =D B^D
Input
"count how many smiley faces are here :)"

I am attempting to make a FHIR call against the Epic Repository through Intersystems. I have setup a Service client per Create FHIR REST Client | InterSystems Developer Community | Business
but I have set it up using OAuth and HTTPS.
I have verified that the OAuth works by executing it manually via a Terminal to verify I get a response. Of course, when I do it is writing to the ISCLOG
I am trying to now test making the FHIR call by initiating the test of HS.FHIRServer.Interop.HTTPOperation, however I keep getting mixed results with first a 404 not found error, and now a 401 unauthorized

Hey Community,
Play the new video on InterSystems Developers YouTube:
Add a credential to login the FHIR REST interface - in this case only consider a basic authentication
Add Service Registry - in this case only consider a basic authentication
- setup a HTTP service
- input the Path to the FHIR Server
- input the URL to the FHIR service
- use the credential profiled
Add a "HS.FHIRServer.Interop.HTTPOperation"
Choose the Service Name

Hi folks,
I am working on a customer project which uses some slightly altered FHIR resources in comparison to default R4 patient resource. I am able to import the structuedefinition as a custom FHIR package and assign it to the ISC FHIR server and the endpoint the IRIS instance provides.
My question is - what is the benefit of using such a custom profil only defining some changes on a resources default definition (e.g. in field optionality)? From my understanding the ISC FHIR server does not validate resources it receives. Furthermore from the custom structure definition of the above mention

Good morning, 🙂
I would like to ask a question, which has to do with how to manage %GlobalCharacterStream representing JSONS.
Thank you for reading this question, thank you for your help, and thank you for your time and attention.
Specifically, in a certain Process, we were querying 2 Operations, whose response we were converting to a Property called "informesAutorizadosRangoFechas" (reportsAuthorizedInRangeDates) which is %GlobalCharacterStream whose content is a JSON with the same structure.
That is, at a visual level, a concrete example is the following:
Response from Operation 1: the
Hi everybody,
I created my own REST service class by extending EnsLib.REST.Service.
In some particular conditions of the parameters of the request, the REST service should respond to the client with an HTTP status response code 400 "Bad request".
I read the article "RESTful Exception Handling " and I try to use the suggested:
do ..ReportHttpStatusCode(400)
But the server seems ignore it and get back to client the 500 http response code.
Any suggestions?
I am sorry if the question is a too low knowledge level but I am pretty newbie to Intersystems world.

We have a yummy dataset with recipes written by multiple Reddit users, however most of the information is free text as the title or description of a post. Let's find out how we can very easily load the dataset, extract some features and analyze it using features from OpenAI large language model within Embedded Python and the Langchain framework.
Loading the dataset
First things first, we need to load the dataset or can we just connect to it?
There are different ways you can achieve this: for instance CSV Record Mapper you can use in an interoperability production or even nice OpenExchange appl
