Parallel query hinting boosts certain query performances on multi-processor systems via parallel processing. The SQL optimizer determines when this is beneficial. On single-processor systems, this hint has no effect.

Parallel processing can be managed by:

  1. Setting the auto parallel option system-wide.
  2. Using the %PARALLEL keyword in the FROM clause of specific queries.

%PARALLEL is ignored when it applied to:

I ask ChatGPT periodically to produce ObjectScript or plain MUMPS code for string manipulation, or for implementing known algorithms etc. Occasionally, it does make mistakes or uses non-existing class members but generally not that bad. Is there any tutorial on the subject of using AI for coding, ideally specifically for ObjectScript/MUMPS? Any AI productivity advice, or tricks you are using, or another AI flavor?

Thanks in advance,
Anna

SQL Query Help

Hello all,

I need help with coming up with a SQL query that pulls only one value. I have a case where two providers share the exact same name. Each has a different NPI number and IdentityTypeId. I tried the below query - output is also below.

What We’re Looking For:
3+ years of experience with InterSystems IRIS, Caché, or Ensemble
Strong skills in ObjectScript, SQL, and scripting languages (Python/Java a plus)
Experience with healthcare interoperability (HL7, FHIR, X12)
Cloud knowledge is a bonus (Azure, AWS, or GCP)
Curious mind + collaborative spirit + bias for action

The Case for IRIS and JavaScript

Introduction

My guess is that most IRIS developers create their applications using its native ObjectScript language or, if using an external language, then most likely using either Java, Python or perhaps C++.

I suspect that only a minority have considered using JavaScript as their language of choice, which, if true, is a great shame, because, In my opinion and experience, JavaScript is the closest equivalent to ObjectScript in terms of its ability to integrate with the IRIS's underlying multi-dimensional database.

At the moment we're creating multiple BPLs are using a router (or another BPL) to direct to these based on a unique key modulo the amount of BPLs available, e.g. if we have 3 BPLs created.

Message key = 1 mod 3 + 1 -> BPL02
Message key = 2 mod 3 + 1 -> BPL03
Message key = 3 mod 3 + 1 -> BPL01

FIFO only matters in that each messages for each key is processed in order.

Reviews on Open Exchange - #47

If one of your packages on OEX receives a review you get notified by OEX only of YOUR own package.
The rating reflects the experience of the reviewer with the status found at the time of review.
It is kind of a snapshot and might have changed meanwhile.
Reviews by other members of the community are marked by * in the last column.

I also placed a bunch of Pull Requests on GitHub when I found a problem I could fix.
Some were accepted and merged, and some were just ignored.
So if you made a major change and expect a changed review just let me know.

Hi Community,

In this article, I will introduce my application iris-fhir-bridge

IRIS-FHIR-Bridge is a robust interoperability engine built on InterSystems IRIS for Health, designed to transform healthcare data across multiple formats into FHIR and vice versa. It leverages the InterSystems FHIR Object Model (HS.FHIRModel.R4.*) to enable smooth data standardization and exchange across modern and legacy healthcare systems.

Hi developers!

This will be a very short article as in April 2025 with Lovable and other Prompt-to-UI tools it becomes possible to build the frontend with prompting. Even to the folks like me who is not familiar with modern UI techics at all.

Well, I know at least the words javascript, typescript and ReactJS, so in this very short article we will be building the ReactJS UI to InterSystems FHIR server with Lovable.ai.

Let's go!

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!

Thank you to everyone who participated in the "Help Us Improve the DC Search" sweepstakes! Your feedback is invaluable in making the Developer Community better, and we will use it to improve our search. Now, it's time to announce the winner - watch the video to see the sweepstake drawing:

We recently changed the 'UserID" property in a "User" class from type of %String to be %Library.Username. This is for better consistency across our codebase regarding MAXLEN limit.

%Library.Username is a system wrapper datatype which extends %String and has a MAXLEN of 160. This change should have minimal/no impact on code behavior. However, we found that some SQL query cannot return expected rows after the change. Query will return empty values even if the entry is in the table.

Taking up Collections in IRIS

Imagine you’re walking down the street on a nice summer’s day, and someone walks up to you and says “Hey, you work at InterSystems, right? I’ve been hearing more and more about InterSystems IRIS lately. I know IRIS has its own programing language called ObjectBook? or InstaScript? OK, I admit it, I know it’s called ObjectScript! I know IRIS also supports Python. I’m a Python developer, so that sounds great to me. But I’m also interested in ObjectScript. For example, Python and other languages support collections. Does ObjectScript support collections?”

You’d answer “Of course!”

And then your new friend might get excited and start firing off more questions:

  • How many kinds of collections does ObjectScript support?
  • Can ObjectScript use Python collections?
  • Can Python use ObjectScript collections?
  • Which collection is best?

How would you answer? Well, you don’t have to worry about answering. All you’d have to do is send your new friend the URL of this long page.
