Hello community,

InterSystems Data Platforms products allow you to export and import security settings in two different ways.

This article talks about those options:

  • On the command line, using ^SECURITY
  • Programmatically, using the Export and Import methods of classes in the Security package

Exporting settings on the command line (^SECURITY)

You can export everything or individual sections of the security settings.

Exporting everything with ^SECURITY

With ^SECURITY, you can export or import all the security settings for an instance very simply. In the Terminal, go to the %SYS namespace and start ^SECURITY:

This quick guide shows how to serve HTTPS requests with InterSystems API Management. Advantage here is that you have your certs on one separated server and you don't need to configure each backend web-server separately.

Here's how:

1. Buy the domain name.

2. Adjust DNS records from your domain to the IAM IP address.

3. Generate HTTPS certificate and private key. I use Let's Encrypt - it's free.

4. Start IAM if you didn't already.

5. Send this request to IAM:

POST http://host:8001/certificates/
{
    "cert": "-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----...",
    "key": "-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----..."

Recently I was fielding some questions that someone had about some bugs that crop up on Docker for Mac, and it reminded me of what Shakespeare wrote in his famous tragedy about large-scale software orchestration, Kubelet: the Prince of Benchmark.

When running Docker on Mac or Windows, some problems crop up occasionally, because Docker for Mac and Docker for Windows are both using some clever and mostly-hidden tricks to be able to run at all.  Containers are, fundamentally, a Linux technology, cobbled together from a handful of features native to the Linux platform. However, they're so popular

Question Roberto Cahanap · Nov 22, 2019

We have a SOAP web service that we call to retrieve a stream of a PDF file. The web service is written by another group in our company (not a Cache group). We are running into one issue where it seems that the PDF is too big and when it is sent to us we get this "ERROR #6301: SAX XML Parser Error: <STORE>". The stream is about 8mb. This is the first time that we have encountered this issue.

We have a WRC ticket open about this but doing some research, we found that if we increase the $ZSTORAGE then we no longer get this error when we call the web service for this 8mb file.

Introduction

We used the InterSystems iKnow technology to create a review assessment system called iKnow Reviews Analyzer (iKRA). Some information about the prototype of the system can be found here. iKRA analyzes users’ text reviews and automatically rates the object being reviewed. This functionality may come in very handy on e-commerce sites, forums or collections of media content – in other words, everywhere where people discuss products, places or services, for example.

What does the solution do?

Hi everyone. I'm new to cache, and i  was looking for a command who reads a .txt file and store the informations in variables. I've found on the documentation the EnsLib.SQL.SNapshot class, and, even if i'm not sure if that's what i need, when i run the code it says that the class doesn't exist, but i couldn't find the right superclass to extend.

InterSystems IRIS supports a unique data structure, called globals, for information storage. Essentially, globals are persistent arrays with multi-level indices, having several extra capabilities—transactions, quick traversal of tree structures, and a programming language known as ObjectScript.

I'd note that for the remainder of the article, or at least the code samples, we'll assume you have familiarised yourself with the basics of globals:

Hello Everyone,

I'm want to know, what is more common for your company to use, the abbreviation syntax or the complety name of commands, and why?

Ex. 

S VAR=10 / D FUNC^ROUTINE F 1:1:1000

Set VAR=10 / Do Func^Routine / For 1:1:1000

set var=10 / do func^routine / for 1:1:1000

Here in my company, we are familiar with the abbreviation syntax, because to spell is more faster.

Hi developers!

I just want to share with you the knowledge aka experience which could save you a few hours someday. 

If you are building REST API with IRIS which contains more than 1 level of "/", e.g. '/patients/all'  don't forget to add parameter 'recurse=1' into your deployment script in %Installer, otherwise all the second and higher entries won't work. And all the entries of level=1 will work.

/patients

- will work,  but

/patients/all

- won't.  

Here is an example of CSPApplicatoin section which fix the issue and which you may want to use in your %Installer class:

    <CSPApplication Url="${CSPAPP}"
      Recurse="1"
      Directory="${CSPAPPDIR}"
      Grant="${RESOURCE},%SQL"
      AuthenticationMethods="96"

First webinar on  InterSystems API Management!


We are pleased to invite you to the upcoming webinar in Russian: Introduction to InterSystems API Management on November 21 at 10:00 Moscow time (GMT+3)!

As you might have heard, we recently introduced the InterSystems API Manager (IAM) - a new feature of the InterSystems IRIS Data Platform,
enabling you to monitor, control and govern traffic to and from web-based APIs within your IT infrastructure.

In this webinar I will highlight some of the many capabilities IAM allows you to leverage. InterSystems API Manager brings everything you need:

  • to monitor your HTTP-based API traffic and understand who is using your APIs; what are your most popular APIs and which could require a rework.
  • to control who is using your APIs and restrict usage in various ways. From simple access restrictions to throttling API traffic and fine-tuning request payloads, you have fine-grained control and can react quickly.
  • to protect your APIs with central security mechanisms like OAuth2.0 or Key Token Authentication.
  • to onboard third-party developers and provide them with a superb developer experience right from the start by providing a dedicated Developer Portal for their needs.
  • to scale your API demands and deliver low-latency responses

There would be a live demo.

This webinar is for System Architects, Developers and DevOps Engineers.
Time: November 21 at 10:00 Moscow time (GMT+3)!

The language of the webinar is Russian.

The frequency with which the journal is synced depends on the operating circumstances of the InterSystems IRIS instance involved. A journal sync can be triggered:

  • Once every two (2) seconds if the system is idle.
  • In an ECP-based distributed cache cluster, by the data server when responding to specific requests (for example, $Increment) from the application servers to guarantee ECP semantics.

Database systems have very specific backup requirements that in enterprise deployments require forethought and planning. For database systems, the operational goal of a backup solution is to create a copy of the data in a state that is equivalent to when application is shut down gracefully.  Application consistent backups meet these requirements and Caché provides a set of APIs that facilitate the integration with external solutions to achieve this level of backup consistency.

Hi, I asked last week and they gave me some little tips. But the truth is I still can't carry out this "Project".
 

I must perform a REST service, using Oracle 11 database. Eh tried anyway to achieve this.

The purpose is to make a REST service, using the database provided to me and use the procedure that is already created.

According to what I read, I made the connection via JDBC and I had no major problem

Then I managed to read the bd inside iris and capture its procedure, but at the time of doing this. The procedure does not work correctly.

The truth is that I am very complicated

And we are getting a lot of submits to the challenges which are not the thing we are expecting there. So I hope this post will give some shine to this quest.

2. Change every:
