Hello,

I have installed the latest version of IRIS (without a web server) to replace my community version with a embeded web server.
I tried to connect Visual Studio Code to my namespace, but I am unable to do so. I keep receiving the message "Not found."
Here is my configuration:

"pc-david": {
"webServer": {
"scheme": "http",
"host": "localhost",
"port": 80
},
"description": "pc-david",
"username": "_SYSTEM"
}

Not sure there are many that connect to MS SQL to execute queries, stored procedures, etc, but our Healthsystem has many different MS SQL based databases we use within the Interoperability environment for various reasons.

With the push to moving from on-prem to the Cloud we ran into some difficulties with our SQL Gateway connections and knowing how to config them to use Microsoft Entra for Active Directory Authentication.

Hello Community,

I'm starting to explore OAuth2 and, as a first step, I want to set up an OAuth2 authentication with Microsoft. I've created a small sample page that attempts to sign in with Microsoft. However, after entering the user credentials, the redirection doesn't work.

Your Mission

Let's pretend for a moment that you're an international action spy who's dedicated your life to keeping the people of the world safe from danger. You recieve the following mission:

Good day, Agent IRIS,

We're sorry for interrupting your vacation in the Bahamas, but we just received word from our London agent that a "time bomb" is set to detonate in a highly populated area in Los Angeles. Our sources say that the "time bomb" is set to trigger at 3:14 PM this afternoon.

We've recently made available a new version of InterSystems IRIS in the Vector Search Early Access Program, featuring a new Approximate Nearest Neighbor index based upon the Hierarchical Navigable Small World (HNSW) indexing algorithm.

I recently met an ages old issue related to code maintenance:

• You have access to your IRIS server just over ODBC/JDBC
• no VSCode access, no Studio access
• no (Web-)Terminal access

But you need to take a look on Classes or Routines or Globals !!
Anyhow SQL is your friend.

Hi Community,

It's time to announce the winners of the AI Programming Contest: Vector Search, GenAI and AI Agents!

Thanks to all our amazing participants who submitted 15 applications 🔥

Now it's time to announce the winners!

The rise of Big Data projects, real-time self-service analytics, online query services, and social networks, among others, have enabled scenarios for massive and high-performance data queries. In response to this challenge, MPP (massively parallel processing database) technology was created, and it quickly established itself. Among the open-source MPP options, Presto (https://prestodb.io/) is the best-known option. It originated in Facebook and was utilized for data analytics, but later became open-sourced.

Hey Community,

Here are the bonuses for participants' articles that take part in the InterSystems Technical Article Contest 2025:

As we all know, InterSystems is a great company.

Their products can be just as useful as they are complex.

Yet, our pride sometimes prevents us from admitting that we might not understand some concepts or products that InterSystems offers for us.

Today we are beginning a series of articles explaining how some of the intricate InterSystems products work, obviously simply and clearly.

In this essay, I will clarify what Machine Learning is and how to take advantage of it.... because this time, you WILL KNOW for sure what I am talking about.

If you plan on using the nginx server to front end you IRIS instance (as opposed to the standard apache web gateway install) you will need to add a few configuration options into the CSP.conf file in order for all urls to work. It took me a little bit to figure this out but this seems to be the configuration that works.

I know that people who are completely new to VS Code, Git, Docker, FHIR, and other tools can sometimes struggle with setting up the environment. So I decided to write an article that walks through the entire setup process step by step to make it easier to get started.

I’d really appreciate it if you could leave a comment at the end - let me know if the instructions were clear, if anything was missing, or if there’s anything else you'd find helpful.

The setup includes:

✅ VS Code – Code editor
✅ Git – Version control system
✅ Docker – Runs an instance of IRIS for Health Community
✅ VS Code REST Client Extension – For running FHIR API queries
✅ Python – For writing FHIR-based scripts
✅ Jupyter Notebooks – For AI and FHIR assignments

Before you begin: Ensure you have administrator privileges on your system.

In addition to reading the guide, you can also follow the steps in the videos:

Hi Team,

I am converting xml message into HL7 message but the input XML message contains pdf which is converting into base 64 and getting mapped to OBX:5.5 in HL7 message and sending it to downstream

In Downstream service i am using normal HL7 TCP class EnsLib.HL7.Service.TCPService but the message looks like below i am not sure why stream is taking as another segment in HL7 message,

Any thoughts on this?

Thanks,

Smythee
