Since we reached two important milestones for Go developers working with InterSystems IRIS:

Now it’s time to see everything working together.

To demonstrate how easily Go developers can adopt InterSystems IRIS, I took an existing production-grade open-source project — the RealWorld Example App — which showcases a full-stack Medium.com-style clone implemented with Go Fiber, GORM, and SQLite.

RealWorld Example App

With just a few configuration tweaks, I swapped out SQLite for gorm-iris, keeping everything else unchanged. The result?
A fully functional Go + Fiber application powered by InterSystems IRIS — no code rewrites, no ORM gymnastics, just a different database backend.

You can find the complete working demo here: github.com/caretdev/golang-fiber-iris-realworld-example-app

At the moment, we have 10 HealthShare instance servers (5 x mirrored pairs), where we implement an External Backup approach, using the freeze/thaw commands against whichever server of the pair is the backup mirror member, to complete a VM level backup. These backups are stored to a disk within our control, to purge as required. This approach allows us to deliver a zero downtime backup approach.

The ObjectScript language has incredible JSON support through classes like %DynamicObject and %JSON.Adaptor. This support is due to the JSON format's immense popularity over the previous dominance of XML. JSON brought less verbosity to data representation and increased readability for humans who needed to interpret JSON content. To further reduce verbosity and increase readability, the YAML format was created. The very easy-to-read YAML format quickly became the most popular format for representing configurations and parameterizations, due to its readability and minimal verbosity.

Hello community,

is anybody located in the DACH area healthcare sector working with Dedalus Orbis as patient master and uses a custom HL7 schema for parsing Orbis message structures into Health Connect?

We're facing a migration and I ask myself if I have to create a schema by myself, based on the pdf documentation given by the company. This is a tedious task, so hopefully there is somebody out there willing to share his or her experience.

Kind regards,

Martin

I'm trying to access the Bearer token from the Authorization header in my REST service class, but I'm getting a 500 Internal Server Error when I try to use %request.GetCgiEnv("HTTP_AUTHORIZATION").

My Environment:

  • InterSystems ensemble 2018
  • Using EnsLib.REST.Service with HTTP Inbound Adapter
  • REST API URL: http://ip:port/api-kiosk/patientData

My Code:

Our vendor is developing an interface API on their end to capture HL7 data on a Server Port, and they require us to send a pre-defined HL7 Order message for testing every hour until the API is completely operational.

Is it possible to accomplish that in a Business Operation automatically without utilizing a service or process? The BO is a standard TCP/IP connection.

I'm manually sending the message again from the Operations right now. I do not have access to the System Operation to use the Task Manager feature.

Hi Community,

I’m trying to execute a directory query in InterSystems IRIS using %SQL.Statement, but encountering an unexpected error.

Details:
The following command confirms that the directory exists:

Set dirPath="\\MYNETWORK_DRIVE\DFS-Shared_Product\GXM"
Write ##class(%File).DirectoryExists(dirPath)

It returns 1, meaning the path is valid and accessible.

However, when I try to execute this SQL query:

My problem was separating HL7 messages by message type. I had to create multiple File Operations. So I with custom code I am able to use 1 File Adapter for 1 interface and multiple message types. I did experiment pulling the MSH 4 out of the raw content to further access dynamic information, but that may open a need for more robust error checking / lookup default actions.

Using the recommended naming convention of "To_FILE_<IntegrationName>"

I decided to use a generic file name and path in the default settings.

Hi community,

A colleague gets ERROR #822: Access denied every time he tries to log in via Management portal. It is NOT the case of wrong credentials: I reset his password password to a temporary one so it would prompt him to create a new one upon first login. He did get the prompt, changed his password and his next attempt at logging in displayed the same error.

The default request class, Ens.Request is fine for our initial workflow.

We want to define other workflows that will reuse the same BPL class. These workflows would send messages inbound to the BPL as different request classes.

Is this possible or is it required that we send in a request class matching the context request class in the context tab?

Thank you

Hey Community,

The InterSystems team recently held another monthly Developer Meetup in the AWS Boston office location in the Seaport, breaking our all-time attendance record with over 80 attendees! This meetup was our second time being hosted by our friends at AWS, and the venue was packed with folks excited to learn from our awesome speakers.

Hi,

My understanding that in IRIS we create an Inbound Adapter that would act like a Broker (connecting to server X) then have an MQTT outbound adapter to receive those messages?

Is there a quick sample that we could user to show how to setup these two Adapters, I started with this but I couldn’t for example find EnsLib.MQTT.Adapter.Inbound

InterSystems FAQ rubric

The ^%GCMP utility can be used to compare the contents of two globals.

For example, to compare ^test and ^test in the USER and SAMPLES namespaces, it would look like this:
*In the example below, 700 identical globals are created in the two namespaces, and the contents of one of them is changed to make it the detection target.

Another step in this implementation path, adding cross cloud, cross regional stretched IrisCluster with Mirroring + Disaster Recovery using the Intersystems Kubernetes Operator (IKO) and Tailscale

Though trivial, Id like to go multi-cloud with the stretched IrisCluster for a couple of reasons to socialize the power of Wireguard when it supplies the network for a properly zoned IrisCluster by adding another mirror role to Amazon Web Services in the Western United States based datacenter in Oregon.

Technical Documentation — Quarkus IRIS Monitor System

1. Purpose and Scope

This module enables integration between Quarkus-based Java applications and InterSystems IRIS’s native performance monitoring capabilities.
It allows a developer to annotate methods with @PerfmonReport, which triggers IRIS’s ^PERFMON routines automatically around method execution, generating performance reports without manual intervention.

In my previous article, Using LIKE with Variables and Patterns in SQL, we explored how the LIKE predicate behaves in different scenarios, from Embedded SQL to Dynamic SQL, and what happens to performance when wildcards and variables come into play. That piece was about getting comfortable writing a working LIKE query. But writing SQL that works is only the starting point. To build applications that are reliable, scalable, and secure, you need to understand the best practices that underpin all SQL, including queries that use LIKE.

This article takes the next step. We’ll look at a few key points to help strengthen your SQL code, avoid common pitfalls, and make sure your SELECT statements run not just correctly, but also efficiently and safely. I'll use SELECT statements with LIKE predicate as an example along the way, showing how these broader principles directly affect your queries and their results.

*This is what Gemini came up with for this article, kinda cute.
