I have a business process that adds data to a global variable on receipt of an HL7 message, and a scheduled task that executes a class method defined within the same business process that removes data from the same global variable. With this in mind it makes sense to consider concurrency and therefore make use of the LOCK command.

My first question is whether this is actually necessary?

I created and then compiled a routine using the %Routine library

s routine = ##class(%Routine).%New(fileName_"."_extension)
d routine.Write(parsedRule)
//s status = routine.Save()
s status = routine.SaveStream(,.refresh)
if ($$$ISERR(status)) throw status

Please let your clients and others on your ISC team know that currently there are spots available for the following June courses which currently have a low registration:

Been testing out the Production Validator toolkit, just to see what we can/not do with it. Seems really interesting and there seem to be some use cases for it that can really streamline some upgrades (or at least parts of upgrades) but I was running into so many hurdles with the documentation. I am curious if anyone else has used it.

Hey everyone.

As I have been working with IRIS (nee Caché) for some time now, I decided to take a look at how I manage things like functions and scripts that may not belong to a single namespace or environment, but should still have a home.

Hello Community,

I've seen two cached queries are generated while executing a query. So, Why the additional query is generated and what is the use of it.

As you set learning goals for 2024, make sure you haven't missed our most popular resources of 2023!

Google Forms is the most popular solution on the market for collecting data, answering questionnaires and quizzes. So, it is the ideal solution for collecting patient data and responses in a practical way, without the need to expand or develop systems. In this article, I will detail how to create an account on Google Cloud, register the application that will consume the Google Forms API, generate the service user necessary to consume the API and finally perform actions to create new forms and collect data filled in them in an automated way in embedded Python and IRIS.

Hi Community,

In this article, I will introduce my application iris-AgenticAI .

The rise of agentic AI marks a transformative leap in how artificial intelligence interacts with the world—moving beyond static responses to dynamic, goal-driven problem-solving. Powered by OpenAI’s Agentic SDK , The OpenAI Agents SDK enables you to build agentic AI apps in a lightweight, easy-to-use package with very few abstractions. It's a production-ready upgrade of our previous experimentation for agents, Swarm.
This application showcases the next generation of autonomous AI systems capable of reasoning, collaborating, and executing complex tasks with human-like adaptability.

Application Features

• Agent Loop 🔄 A built-in loop that autonomously manages tool execution, sends results back to the LLM, and iterates until task completion.
• Python-First 🐍 Leverage native Python syntax (decorators, generators, etc.) to orchestrate and chain agents without external DSLs.
• Handoffs 🤝 Seamlessly coordinate multi-agent workflows by delegating tasks between specialized agents.
• Function Tools ⚒️ Decorate any Python function with @tool to instantly integrate it into the agent’s toolkit.
• Vector Search (RAG) 🧠 Native integration of vector store (IRIS) for RAG retrieval.
• Tracing 🔍 Built-in tracing to visualize, debug, and monitor agent workflows in real time (think LangSmith alternatives).
• MCP Servers 🌐 Support for Model Context Protocol (MCP) via stdio and HTTP, enabling cross-process agent communication.
• Chainlit UI 🖥️ Integrated Chainlit framework for building interactive chat interfaces with minimal code.
• Stateful Memory 🧠 Preserve chat history, context, and agent state across sessions for continuity and long-running tasks.

Hi Community,
