In this article, I will show how you can easily containerize .Net/Java Gateways.

For our example, we will develop an Integration with Apache Kafka.

And to interoperate with Java/.Net code we will use PEX .

Architecture

Our solution will run completely in docker and look like this:

This time I want to talk about something not specific to InterSystems IRIS, but that I think is important if you want to work with Docker and your server at work is a PC or laptop with Windows 10 Pro or Enterprise.

As you likely know, containers technology comes basically from Linux world and, nowadays, is on Linux hosts were it shows maximum potential. Those who use Windows on a normal basis see that both, Microsoft and Docker, have done important efforts during these last years that allow us to run containers based on Linux images on our Windows system in a really easy way... but it's something not supported for production systems and, this is the big problem, is not reliable if we want to keep persistent data outside of containers, in the host system,... mostly due to the big differences between Windows and Linux file systems. In the end, Docker for Windows itself uses a small linux virtual machine (MobiLinux) to run the containers... it does it transparently for the windows user... and it works perfectly well if, as I said, you don't require that your databases survive longer than the container...

Well,...let's get to the point,... the point is that many times, to avoid issues and simplify, we need a full Linux system and, if our server is based on Windows, the only way of having it is through a virtual machine. At least till WSL2 in Windows is released, but that will be another story and sure it'll take a bit of time to become robust enough.

In this article, I'll tell you, step by step, how to install an environment where you'll be able to work, if you need it, with Docker containers on an Ubuntu system in your Windows server. Let's go...

I've poked through the class documentation and globals and I can't seem to find what I'm looking for, namely a mechanism that will give me the PropName key and value for each of the Items in an EnsLib.HL7.SearchTable definition. Is there some sort of query that will turn the list of Items in the XData SearchSpec section into a key/value pair of some sort?

For example:

Storing a %DynamicObject

I've been tasked with an interface that needs to supply some additional metadata for the indexing of HL7v2 messages. After toying with a couple of ideas, I thought that it would be useful to subclass EnsLib.HL7.Message, add a %DynamicObject property, and store the metadata in it (it ends up getting sent to the target in JSON form anyway).

And, well, it seems to work just fine ... so far.

When using Studio, ODBC or a terminal connection to Caché or Ensemble, you may have wondered how to secure the connection. One option is to add TLS (aka SSL) to your connection. The Caché client applications - TELNET, ODBC and Studio - all understand how to add TLS to the connection. They just need to be configured to do it.

Configuring these clients is easier in 2015.1 and later. I'm going to be discussing this new method. If you're already using the old, legacy method, it will continue to work, but I would recommend you consider switching to the new one.

Hello,

We have a need to track Database changes over time - down to the SQL level of granularity if possible. Such as: User xyz runs routine ^abc and we get something similar to a changelog that tells us: table A had this value updated, insert, update etc....

Is that possible using IRIS level tools (Audit Log, Journal File, etc...) , is there a way to convert the global sets and kills from the journals into SQL level changes?

    Reply with custom ACK

    Hi,i have created a simple production with:

    Business Service-EnsLib.HL7.Adapter.TCPInboundAdapter

    Business Process - EnsLib.HL7.MsgRouter.RoutingEngine

    Business Operation - EnsLib.SQL.OutboundAdapter

    the sending application requires a ACK wich is different than the ACK i choose from in the AckMode settings of the Business Service.

    How do i create a custom ACK?

    Thanks

    Hi community,

    I am in the process of building a React Native Application for a restaurant.

    I am not quite sure if we can use IRIS as the main database for this and if there is a possibility I am not quite sure how to do it.

    If there is a possibility could some one help me out with it please?

    Or do you think using AWS is a better choice?

    Please let me know your ideas and guidelines in the comments or please feel free to reach out to me directly.

    Hoping to hear soon.

    Regards.

    HA backup strategy

    we use Rose to do HA with cache2016.2, the database is placed on the hard disk array, which is essentially an instance, and the same array disk is mounted by rose switch, another mirror machine is made.

    Is there any problem with this structure for disaster recovery and backup, I hope to give some advice. Thanks!

    Does InterSystems IRIS will support Visual Studio 6.0 Enterprise Edition (Visual Basic)?

    We are in the process of transitioning Intersystems Cache 2017 to Intersystems IRIS 2020 version.

    For terminal based applications we can able to use the same DAT file used for Cache with minor changes.

    For Web based we are using Visual studio 6.0(Visual Basic). Will IRIS supports Visual Studio 6?

    Hi all,

    I'm looking for a user-friendly way to make a method library available in DTL, and by user-friendly I mean via '..MyMethod()' or '$$$MyMacro()' rather than '##class(MyPackage.MyClassName).MyMethod()'.

    Does anybody know of a way to add a second superclass or a set of macros to a DTL ... or some other trick?

    Cheers,

    Otto
