Migrating InterSystems IRIS and InterSystems IRIS for Health from on-premises to the cloud offers many advantages for Application Providers and Solution Providers. These advantages include simplified operations, access to flexible resources, and enhanced resilience. Companies no longer need to worry about the physical constraints and expenses associated with maintaining on-prem infrastructure, such as power and space requirements and expensive computer hardware.

One of the most compelling benefits is the ability to accelerate speed to market. By removing the burden of infrastructure maintenance, cloud environments enable faster development and deployment cycles, allowing businesses to respond quickly to market demands and opportunities. Operational costs are also lowered, because companies can scale resources up or down based on actual needs, leading to more efficient use of capital. Moreover, migrating to the cloud can contribute to a reduced carbon footprint by optimizing energy usage through shared cloud infrastructure.

Transitioning to the cloud may involve significant changes. Companies may benefit from a more operational focus, managing and optimizing cloud resources continuously. This shift may require changes to business models, reconsideration of margins, and strategies for scaling operations up or out. While requiring more investment, embracing these changes can lead to improved agility and competitive advantage in the marketplace.

Hi Community,

I have a CSP page I am developing with the intent of pulling files from an SFTP site and placing them in a folder on the local network.

I am having an issue where the CSP page is catching a JS error. The error in the browser is - A JavaScript exception was caught during execution of HyperEvent: SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier 'downloading'. (However, the unexpected identifier changes after refreshing page, or after removing the Write statement with the work 'downloading' in it.)

I think I have narrowed it down to a piece of the Javascript code -

Host Variables are a rather common programming feature in many implementations of SQL.
A recent question in DC made me aware that in IRIS, Caché, Ensemble, ...
host variables just exist within embedded SQL

> You can supply host variables for Embedded SQL queries only. <

Related examples are included in the available Documentation

This is a description for a workaround if you don't / can't use embedded SQL.

User-defined aggregate functions have been supported in IRIS since 2021.1.0. I'd wished upon a star for these years ago before finding a secret hacky way to override MAX and MIN in a custom datatype, but didn't get a chance to actually try one out until today.

I want to integrate IRIS with Keycloak OAuth2 provider to use delegated authentication everywhere and to secure everything - sys*/Portal applications, REST services, FHIR server and so on. If an unathenticated user tries to access any IRIS URL - he or she should be redirected to Keycloak. After the user has successfully authenticated, i would like to access his requistes (username, email, roles, scopes) extracted from the JWT token, programmatically. What should be done to achieve that?

Overview

With the help of SQL, you can build, train, and manage machine learning models directly in the database with InterSystems IRIS's robust IntegratedML tool. Using SQL examples that represent your data, we will go over IntegratedML configuration and how it is used in practical situations in this article.

We’re issuing a point release for InterSystems IRIS, IRIS for Health, and Health Connect 2025.1 — version 2025.1.0.225.1 — to address a critical interoperability issue affecting users who leverage System Default Setting enabled business hosts.

In a Business Process (Ens.BusinessProcessBPL), how can you correctly call a classMethod?


I know we can call it in a block <code> :

Or in a <assign>

Are there other ways and/or good practices?

Thanks

For one of our customers I had to integrate with the AFAS imageconnector endpoint /imageconnector/{imageId}?format={format}.
This endpoint returns in a json message with the image as a base64-encoded string property, in addition to the mimetype for the image:
