Today, we take a moment to shine the spotlight on one of the true pillars of the InterSystems Developer Community, @Alberto Fuentes. His commitment, expertise, and enthusiasm have left an indelible mark on the Developer Community, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Alberto has been a part of the InterSystems ecosystem for over 15 years, starting his journey with InterSystems technology back in 2008. Since then, he has worn many hats, from integrating Ensemble at his previous job to officially joining InterSystems in 2011 and now holding the position of Sales Engineer. Over the years, he’s witnessed—and contributed to—some of the most significant milestones in the company’s history.
Speeding Up Antibiotic Resistance Detection with InterSystems IRIS
Antibiotic resistance is a critical health challenge, requiring rapid detection to inform effective treatments. We worked on developing a solution that leverages InterSystems IRIS vector database technology that would quickly identify resistance genes in DNA.
IAM - InterSystems API Manager is a great tool for monitoring your traffic. If you are trying to use it in your Kubernetes cluster you may have tried doing a deployment similar to this one:
I have a large tree outside my window. Here in Phoenix, Arizona, USA it's still warm and sunny so our plants are still covered in lush foliage despite so many other places in the full throws of Autumn. My desk is oriented such that I can look out at the tree throughout the day.
I have recently been deploying an IRIS for Health image on a Docker with a preconfigured Webgateway image and I have come across the problem of the SSL configurations that allow us to connect to the IRIS instance using HTTPS and going through our Webgateway.
Until now I had always deployed IRIS for Health with a Community license, which still has the Private Web Server installed, so I only needed to configure the Webgateway connection with the deployed IRIS instance:
Auditing is a critical capability ensuring the security of your server, and for quite a while ago we have included the ability to audit SQL statements run on the server.
With v2024.3 out already we're providing finer-grained options for defining these events to audit.
If you want to raise an arbitrary custom error in a TRY block, you can pass an exception with a throw as follows. In the following example, a custom error is raised if Stcount is less than 1.
If you like Java and have a thriving Java ecosystem at work into which you need to incorporate IRIS, it's not a problem. Java External Language Gateway will do it seamlessly, almost. This gateway serves as a bridge between Java and Object Script in IRIS. You can create objects of Java classes in IRIS and call their methods. You just need a jar file to do this.
🌍 Inclusion & Innovation in Education 🌍 Our project reimagines learning for all students, with a focus on accessibility and interactive experiences. Built with the goal of making education engaging and inclusive, the tool is designed to support students of all abilities in learning complex material in an intuitive way.
💡 What It Does This educational app transforms lesson presentations into interactive study sessions:
I want to share with you the lastest app that I have uploaded to the Open Exchange "IrisGoogleChat".
IrisGoogleChat is a utility for InterSystems IRIS that allows seamless message integration with Google Chat using Cache ObjectScript. This application provides a set of tools to configure Google Chat Channels, create messages powered by moods generated with AI and send them to a Google Chat Channel.
By default, the order of columns in a table is determined automatically by the system. To change the order, explicitly set the order for each property using the property keyword SqlColumnNumber when defining the class.
The InterSystems IRIS for Health v2024.3 is already availableas a Developer Preview for some time, and I wanted to highlight new support related to FHIR Search that was introduced.
To synchronize other files required for your application (CSP files, images, documents, etc.) between the two servers that make up the mirror set follow one of the approaches:
Place those files on a shared disk by introducing a NAS or similar device
Or use file sync software to synchronize files between two servers.
The rise of Big Data projects, real-time self-service analytics, online query services, and social networks, among others, have enabled scenarios for massive and high-performance data queries. In response to this challenge, MPP (massively parallel processing database) technology was created, and it quickly established itself. Among the open-source MPP options, Presto (https://prestodb.io/) is the best-known option. It originated in Facebook and was utilized for data analytics, but later became open-sourced.
