If you work with Productions, highlighting connections between Business Hosts is a very convenient feature, allowing developers to get a visual representation of a data flow.

This feature works by default with all system Business Hosts. If a user writes their own Business Services, Processes, or Operations, they must implement the OnGetConnections method for this functionality to work with their custom Business Hosts (or use Ens.DataType.ConfigName properties for connections).
That said, the SMP shows only the first layer of connections of the selected Business Host. Sometimes, we need to get connections of connections recursively to build a complete data flow graph. Or we might need this connection information to check which downstream systems might be affected by a change upstream.

⏯️ Healthcare AI Agent Platform

An AI Agent Platform specifically built for the healthcare industry that requires no technical background to utilize. By simply defining a goal or initiative, a swarm of AI agents will conduct operations to achieve the stated end goal and measure their own efficacy along the way to continuously improve. Healthcare organizations today are facing a myriad of challenges that impact financial and clinical performance. These problems are well known, and there is a general consensus on how many of them can be alleviated with AI. However, healthcare organizations face unique challenges in implementing AI:

  • HIPAA/Regulatory compliance - Data quality & accessibility - Embedding AI into current clinical workflows, i.e. integrating AI in such a way that it does not require clinicians to re-orient their processes. It should complement existing workflows, not disrupt them.
  • Implementation cost/high technical barrier of entry – staff needed to build and maintain AI processes can become expensive
  • Ambiguous ROI calculation – careful considerations must be made to properly measure and understand the efficacy of AI integrations. InterSystems is uniquely positioned to address these challenges, enabling healthcare organizations to implement AI with minimal burden.

I feel I may be in the "people unclear on the concept" group here.

System Default Settings is a great mechanism, and we use some custom code to deploy it in our pipeline after environment specific changes have been applied to the content. However, we are trying our best to reduce the amount of custom code we use in our system that does not relate directly to the business. For CI/CD, this means we are trying to leverage IPM for the heavy lifting.

Hi,

sometimes we need more then one Iris container at the same time. Since as containers they always have the same instance name shown in the management portal, it is hard to distinguish the management-portals of the instances. Searching for a way to make it easier I thought I could change the instance name shown in the management portal. I tried "iris rename" in different ways but could only change the configuration name which is shown by "iris list", not the name in the management portal.

Are you curious about how to run Python scripts directly in your InterSystems IRIS or Caché terminal? 🤔 Good news it's easy! 😆 IRIS supports Embedded Python, allowing you to use Python interactively within its terminal environment.

How to access the Python Shell?

To launch the Python shell from the IRIS terminal, simply run the following command:

We have messages that are in a queued state for various reasons and when we do a manual shutdown of the instance, they are moved to a Suspended state. I thought I saw in the documentation somewhere a setting to make sure these messages stay in a queued state and not suspend them. Can someone confirm and point me in the correct location for that documentation, as I am trying to ensure that if we do have to manually shutdown a instance, someone doesn't have to remember to go back in and check for suspended messages and resubmit them?

Thanks

Hi,

I tried to create a client for Google Cloud Storage using a private endpoint.

like this:

S client=##class(%Net.Cloud.Storage.Client).%New()

S sc=client.CreateClient("",2,credentialsFile,"",.out,privateEndpoint)

But privateEndpoint seems not to be used when trying to send blob from a file:

D sc.UploadBlobFromFile(bucketname,blobname,filename)

We can see at the firewall that the client still tries to use the public endpoint for GCS.

InterSystems is pleased to announce the General Availability (GA) of the 2025.2 release of InterSystems IRIS® data platform. This is a Continuous Delivery (CD) release. Please note that the GA versions of InterSystems IRIS for Health™ and HealthShare® Health Connect™ 2025.2 are currently withheld due to mirroring limitations introduced by security updates (details below).

Hi,

To add or get information about a user for the management portal you can [within the portal]:
System Administration > Security Management > Users

Is it possible to:

1. List a user, user's properties including roles

2. Add a user and set user's properties including roles

3. Set a user's password

for the management portal using a program eg. Objectscript and/or SQL?

If so, how can this be done?

It would be great if you have examples.

Working on wrapping an IRIS Cache ObjectScript method that runs for a few seconds. Trying to get UI updates to show BEFORE the method runs in an async/await function. But it seems to be running synchronously rather than asynchronously . So my question is does IRIS/ObjectScript CSP pages support futures with JavaScript or does it run all synchronously.

Are you familiar with SQL databases, but not familiar with IRIS? Then read on...

About a year ago I joined InterSystems, and that is how IRIS got on my radar. I've been using databases for over 40 years—much of that time for database vendors—and assumed IRIS would be largely the same as the other databases I knew. However I was surprised to find that IRIS is in several ways quite unlike other databases, often much better. With this, my first article in the Dev Community, I'll give a high-level overview of IRIS for people that are already familiar with the other databases such as Oracle, SQL Server, Snowflake, PostgeSQL, etc. I hope I can make things clearer and simpler for you and save you some time getting started.

⏯️ The Ultimate 3D Industrial Simulation powered by a Game Engine with InterSystems IRIS

In this demo, InterSystems IRIS Interoperability comes alive in an amazing, game-like user experience based on our Ultimate Control Tower demo. We visualize machines in a virtual 3D factory building, interacting with InterSystems IRIS in real time—displaying current statuses and sensor data, simulating machine outages and predictive maintenance scenarios, and triggering workflow tasks and actions in InterSystems IRIS. By using a mobile app on a tablet—and even a VR headset for a fully immersive experience—we unleash the power of InterSystems IRIS.

Vector Search Performance

Test Objectives

InterSystems has been testing Vector Search since it was announced as an “experimental feature” in IRIS 2024.1. The first test cycle was aimed at identifying algorithmic inefficiencies and performance constraints during the Development/QD cycle. The next test cycle used simple vector searches for single threaded performance analysis to model reliable, scalable and performant behaviour at production database scale in IRIS, and performed a series of comparative tests of key IRIS vector search features against PostgreSQL/pgvector. The current test cycle models the expected behaviour of real-world customer deployments using complex queries that span multiple indices (vector and non-vector) and run in up to 1000 concurrent threads. These tests will be run against IRIS, PostgreSQL/pgvector, and ElasticSearch

In this 3-part series of articles, is shown how you can use IAM to simply add security, according to OAuth 2.0 standards, to a previously unauthenticated service deployed in IRIS.

In the first part, was provided some OAuth 2.0 background together with some IRIS and IAM initial definitions and configurations in order to facilitate the understanding of the whole process of securing your services.
