Global Guard AI

1 Introduction

In environments that use InterSystems IRIS, globals are the physical foundation of data storage. Although system queries and administrative tools exist for metric inspection, global growth analysis is usually reactive: the problem is generally only noticed when there is disk pressure or performance impact.

The facial recognition has become the most popular method for validating people's identities, thus enabling access to systems, confirmation of personal and documentary data, and approval of actions and documents.
The challenges are related to performance when the database is very large, accuracy, and especially the privacy of biometric facial data. For these challenges, nothing is better than using InterSystems Vector Search, as it allows:

1. Performing vector searches in millions of records with much faster responses than traditional methods.

Hello, how are you?

Using Healthshare for Interoperability, we often see a wide variety of encoding issues. Some happen when transforming XML to HL7. Some happen the other ay around transforming HL7 to XML.

Is there a valid way to understand which encoding needs to be used?

I ask, because we use SOAP or REST or TCP HL7 services.

And we deliver messages with TCP HL7, SOAP, HTTP Operations.

And we often face this issue where special characters like ñ or á, are not encoded correctly.

Thanks for your replies.

If one of your packages on OEX receives a review, you get notified by OEX only of YOUR own package.   
The rating reflects the experience of the reviewer with the status found at the time of review.   
It is kind of a snapshot and might have changed meanwhile.   
Reviews by other members of the community are marked by * in the last column.

I also placed a bunch of Pull Requests on GitHub when I found a problem I could fix.    
Some were accepted and merged, and some were just ignored.     
So if you made a major change and expect a changed review, just let me know.

Hello!

I am requesting feedback on the usage and experience of the Schema Viewer feature available in Interoperability-enabled products (IRIS, IRIS for Health, Health Connect). This feature is accessible via Interoperability > Interoperate. 

Some questions to jog your discussion/comments below:

1. What's one enhancement that would drastically change your experience or enable faster schema configurations?
2. If you are not a user of this feature (but need to create custom schemas/view your schemas), why do you not use the schema viewer?

I am issuing "iris freeze <instance_name> to freeze the instance. I want  confirmation that no IO is going to the database so taht I can take a snapshot.

I am configuring a set of Linux (RHEL 9) servers to operate as an IRIS 2025.1 mirror set. Mirroring traffic is using TLS, so each IRIS server has the necessary TLS configurations. However installation of ISCAgent on the dedicated arbiter host didn't make any mention of TLS or certificates. Nor did I find anything about this when searching IRIS documentation.

Am I missing something? Does the traffic between the IRIS hosts and the arbiter host use TLS? Should I be installing any certs on the arbiter host to facilitate secure communication?

How to obtain an evaluation license for testing ECP and FHIR in Community Edition 2025.3?

How do I download IRIS Community Edition 2023.2? What is the download link?

Inspired by @Ashok Kumar T's post on the ideas portal here as well as my own wishes for a solution to this problem, I have come up with a simple way to allow more complete and consistent JSON queries without having to specify every desired field. I have created a class that extends the built-in %JSON.Adaptor class and makes its %JSONExportToString and %JSONExportToStream methods accessible through SQL with just a couple of simple SqlProc Methods.

Class DH.JSONAdaptor Extends %JSON.Adaptor [ Abstract ]
{
ClassMethod jsonstring(id, map = "") [ SqlProc ]
{
	try{
		set myobj = .

Hello everyone,

I’m trying to find a way to manage globals from our Java application. We have two separate features:

• Managing tables normally using SQL

• Managing globals, since some globals exist without class or table definitions

Cache version : Cache for UNIX (Red Hat Enterprise Linux for x86-64) 2016.1.1 (Build 108U_SU), Thu Jul 7 2016 09:39:04 EDT

I tried to retrieve the globals tree, update node values, and append nodes using SQL by calling stored procedures, but I couldn’t find any procedures for adding, updating, or deleting nodes.

I also tried using cacheextreme.

Hello Community,

We are excited to announce that registration is now open for the second cohort of the course:

 🧑‍💻 Developing FHIR Applications Using Python 🧑‍💻

This hands-on program is designed for developers who want to build real-world FHIR applications using Python and InterSystems IRIS for Health. 

👉 Watch 5-minute course overview

📅 Second cohort starts March 29, 2026

iris-budget

I created iris-budget app for the InterSystems Full Stack Contest in 2026. By full stack, we mean a frontend web or mobile application that inserts, updates, or deletes data in InterSystems IRIS via REST API, Native API, ODBC/JDBC, or Embedded Python.

My app uses multiple REST APIs to add a new category or retrieve a list of categories of expenses and income.

First web application /csp/coffee

I inherited /csp/coffee from module.xml in iris-fullstack-template.

Second web application /csp/budget

For this project, I created a swagger file called "budget.json.

When using VS code with multiple workspaces it requests "The extension 'InterSystems ObjectScript' wants to sign in using InterSystems Server Credentials. 

Other than having multiple workspaces per environemnt (which never really works for me in principle as i end up code comparing in one manner or another) is there a way to only have intersystems log in to VS code whenever you open an actual workspace itself i.e. click on dev not on loading vscode. 

This would also get around errors of "unauthenticated access rejected by" errors as VS code tries to log in without the password first. 

Hi Community,
In this article, I will introduce my application iris-CliniNote .

CliniNote is a full-featured clinical notes application that combines classic CRUD operations with **real-time AI-assisted notes matching** powered by **InterSystems IRIS native vector search**. The standout feature: while a doctor is writing or editing a clinical note, a side panel shows the **top 5 most similar notes** based on the semantic content of the note being written — **excluding the current patient** to avoid trivial matches. This gives clinicians immediate access to "patients like this one" — helping with differential diagnosis, treatment pattern recognition, and rare presentation detection.

Parameter ADAPTER = "Custom.EDI.ASTM.Adapter.TCPAdapter"
}

Custom Adapter:

Include EnsEDIASTM
Class Custom.EDI.ASTM.Adapter.TCPAdapter Extends EnsLib.EDI.ASTM.Adapter.

In the modern healthcare landscape, finding clinically similar patients often feels like looking for a needle in a haystack. Traditional keyword searches often fail because medical language is highly nuanced; a search for "Heart Failure" might miss a record containing "Congestive Cardiac Failure."

I am excited to share iris-medmatch, an AI-powered patient matching engine built on InterSystems IRIS for Health. By leveraging Vector Search, this tool understands clinical intent rather than just matching literal strings.
