Hi Community!

I'm super excited to be your on-the-ground reporter for the biggest developer event of the year - InterSystems Ready 2025!

As you may know from previous years, our global summits are always exciting, exhilarating, and packed with valuable knowledge, innovative ideas, and exciting news from InterSystems. This year is no different. But let's not get ahead of ourselves and start from the beginning.

Pre-summit day was, as usual, filled with fun and educational experiences. Those who enjoy playing golf (I among them) got up at the crack of dawn to tee off before the sun got too high up. Here's our dream team in action:

@sween, @Mark Bolinsky, @Anzelem Sanyatwe, @Iryna Mykhailova

⏯️ Eliminating Waste in Healthcare Supply Chains

Between recalled supplies, expired inventory, and rogue spending, an estimated $25 billion per year goes to waste in healthcare supply chains. We know how critical supply chain is in healthcare, so we know this is a problem worth solving! What could a proposed solution look like? Watch and find out!

This article describes a significant enhancement of how InterSystems IRIS deals with table statistics, a crucial element for IRIS SQL processing, in the 2025.2 release. We'll start with a brief refresher on what table statistics are, how they are used, and why we needed this enhancement. Then, we'll dive into the details of the new infrastructure for collecting and saving table statistics, after which we'll zoom in onto what the change means in practice for your applications. We'll end with a few additional notes on patterns enabled by the new model, and look forward to the follow-on phases of this initial delivery.

Metabase IRIS Driver

Hi InterSystems Community! I'm Sidd one of the interns at the Singapore office and I recently had the chance to develop to develop a driver to connect IRIS to Metabase to help some of the Sales Engineers here. I was encouraged to share it here so that if any others have a similar issue they can use the driver and as well as get some feedback on potential improvements. The full GitHub repo with the quick start step, brief overview and the driver building process can be found here.

Hi Community,

While writing an article yesterday, I realized I was so busy with people who came to the Developer Community table at the Tech Exchange that I forgot to take photos for you. Luckily, I realized the error of my ways and corrected my behavior accordingly 😉

So, let's look at what happened on Tuesday at the InterSystems Ready 2025! It began with a speech of Scott Gnau about the approach and architecture of InterSystems Data Platform and how it is different from all other DBMSs:

This will be an introduction to Python programming in the context of IRIS.

Before anything I will cover an important topic: How python works, this will help you understand some issues and limitations you may encounter when working with Python in IRIS.

All the articles and examples can be found in this git repository: iris-python-article

☤ Care 🩺 Compass 🧭 - Proof-of-Concept - Demo Games Contest Entry

Introducing Care Compass: AI-Powered Case Prioritization for Human Services

In today’s healthcare and social services landscape, caseworkers face overwhelming challenges. High caseloads, fragmented systems, and disconnected data often lead to missed opportunities to intervene early and effectively. This results in worker burnout and preventable emergency room visits, which are both costly and avoidable.

Care Compass was created to change that.

Hey Community,

Last week, the InterSystems team held our monthly Developer Meetup in a new venue for the first time ever! In the AWS Boston office location in the Seaport, over 71 attendees showed up to chat, network, and listen to talks from two amazing speakers. The event was a huge success; we had a packed house, tons of engagement and questions, and attendees lining up to chat with our speakers afterwards!

⏯️ Care Compass – InterSystems IRIS powered RAG AI assistant for Care Managers

Care Compass is a prototype AI assistant that helps caseworkers prioritize clients by analyzing clinical and social data. Using Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) and large language models, it generates narrative risk summaries, calculates dynamic risk scores, and recommends next steps. The goal is to reduce preventable ER visits and support early, informed interventions.

⏯️ 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.

Presenters:
🗣 @Stephan Mohr, Sales Engineer, InterSystems
🗣 @Jannis Stegmann, Sales Engineer, InterSystems
🗣 @Benjamin Kiwitz, Intern, InterSystems

InterSystems IRIS 2025.2 introduces the IRISSECURITY database, the new home for security data. Unlike IRISSYS, the previous home for security data, IRISSECURITY can be encrypted, which secures your sensitive data at rest. In a future version, IRISSECURITY will be mirrorable.

This version also introduces the %SecurityAdministrator role for general security administration tasks.

At hackathons that InterSystems participated and I supported, many students were asking how all their teammates could use the same IRIS database that they spun up in a container. I suggested using ngrok to expose their localhost IRIS and realized we don't have documentation on that. Hence, I thought this would be great to let more people knwo about this powerful technique for enhancing collaboration during development and testing.
