Enabling HSSYS Mirroring Out of the Gate with IKO

For those of us building InterSystems workloads on Kubernetes, we are definitely spoiled with the InterSystems Kubernetes Operator (IKO) doing the heavy lifting and mirroring on day one. Where us spoiled brats jump up and down is when we try to add additional databases/namespaces when we provision from HealthConnect containers on day two, while others get to utilize HealthShare Mirroring for this task, the prerequisite of mirroring HSSYS out of the gate has been somewhat elusive. Here is example on how you can this powerful feature up and running with the employment of IKO and IrisClusters.

Hi Gang!

Did you know you can deploy InterSystems IRIS Community Edition on the cloud without paying for a license? You can try for free, and it could even come in handy if you want to show off that shiny new app you've created (maybe for the full stack competition..?)

In this article I will provide a complete walkthrough on how to deploy IRIS on Amazon Web Services (AWS), and will also add a follow up for deploying on Azure.

Now before I begin the walkthrough, I want to admit that I was terrified of using AWS the first time because I'd seen memes about how easy it is to rack up costs on AWS. So if you're thinking the same, I suggest you start by signing up to a Free Tier Account, which gives you $100 free credit to evaluate, and automatically shuts off to prevent charges. InterSystems IRIS Community Edition has a free license so if you pair the two, you can deploy without risk and completely for free. (Disclaimer: although I'm sure this is true, please do read the free account terms and make your own decisions 😅 )

I'm using this service to create a FHIR facade.

I want to return OperationOutcome to the calling application when I detect an error.

My code at present is :

Hi, I have simple email alert setup (EnsLib.EMail.AlertOperation) where in operations I have SMTP server setup and Recipients emails.

Also I find Alert Groups dropdown option in operations, processes, how this is different from setting up simple email alert with recipients list?

Please advise.

Hi everyone,

I am currently setting up InterSystems API Manager (IAM) 3.4.3.11 using Docker. The installation is successful, the license is active, and I can access the Manager (port 8002).

I am now trying to secure the Administration Portal using basic-auth. I've found some documentation stating that I should:

I have always struggled with Iterating through a JSON response to pull out certain fields into a Data Class Structure to use to populate fields in a DTL. So I defined the whole structure for the following JSON, with the base structure extending Ens.Response, %XML.Adaptor, and %JSON.Adaptor.

PEP 578 added Python Audit hooks. A rich variety of events (module load, os interactions and so on) triggers audit events which you can subscribe to.

Here's how to do that. First create an embedded python hook:

In Part 1, we laid the technical foundation of MAIS (Multi-Agent Interoperability Systems). We have successfully wired up the 'Brain', built a robust Adapter using LiteLLM, locked down our API keys with IRIS Credentials, and finally cracked the trick code on the Python interoperability puzzle.
