InterSystems IRIS 2024 recently introduced the vector types.
This addition empowers developers to work with vector search, enabling efficient similarity searches, clustering, and a range of other applications.
In this article, we will delve into the intricacies of vector types, explore their applications, and provide practical examples to guide your implementation.

Let's have another round of code golf, with a different signature today!

Write a classmethod that will receive a variable number of parameters containing comma-separated strings and/or positive numbers, and returns one of four possible string values.

Is there any solution to how to purge the usage of the connection in Community Edition?

I have a working portal, where can't do even any simple SQL Query

Why? Because somehow I've exceeded a license limit (pardon, connection limit, when it comes to Community Editon)

So, this page shows, 8 users ate all connections

How many times do we find ourselves rebuilding, copy-pasting, adapting, Business Operations that make calls to REST services, and only adapting one or another part of the final code. This is annoying a lot. To resolve this our inconvenience, I present to you Interopway REST, a set of classes (a micro framework) that allows us to just add Business Operation to Production and use it.

Hi,

I am reaching out to find out if anyone has come across a similar dilemma.

In my current role, I have been asked around the best way to design some patient labels for a client.

I primarily would stick to what I know and veered towards designing the label in ZPL and then creating a Abstract Class to call the ZPL code, however I have been asked why not to design via JReport. The patient labels will be processed via thermal ink printers primarily Zebras, I am wondering if anyone out there has come across this or would recommend to stick to what you know.

Hey DC members,

How could we make the Tech Article contest better? We want to hear from you all: both from our participants and from those who were unable to participate.

Please answer some questions to help us improve our writing contest.

I want to map global ^myUnitTests(ID)={Start}_"^"_{JOB} where {Start} and {JOB} are two properties and ID is determined by $Increment(^myUnitTests).

I defined this class but it will not compile:

Hi All

I have a process that I want to analyze and find bottle necks (e.g BO that had taken to long) something similar to the SQL query optimizer

Any suggestions?

Thanks

HI,

I'm migration an existing integration to InterSystems. The upstream (external) system calls a JSON web service hosted in the interface engine, which converts the JSON data received to a HL-7 messages to send to the downstream system. I'm looking for direction and example of how to do the equivalent in InterSystems, so the the upstream system only has to modify the URL of the web service they call.

Work Queue Manager (WQM) is a feature of InterSystems IRIS that enables you to improve performance by distributing work to multiple concurrent processes programmatically. The idea is that you split the work into chunks, and WQM distributes the chunks across worker processes and can provide the info that the work is done.

However, recently, I got an interesting question: there's a large logical transaction composed of ~1,000,000 individual objects and SQL inserts and updates. Some updates are CPU-intensive, so the original idea was to use WQM to split an update into chunks to speed things up.

But, here's a catch: if one of the individual 1,000,000 changes fails (there's a variety of application-level checks so that it can fail, and that's not even that abnormal a behavior), the entire transaction must be rolled back. That creates a problem: each chunk must report success before committing their individual transactions, and someone must get all these reports and decide if we are committing or not.

Unfortunately, it looks like WQM does not have a bidirectional communication between workers and manager, so I suggested an approach using events:

1. Start jobs.
2. Wait for all jobs to report success using $System.Event.WaitMsg().
3. Send Commit or Rollback using the $System.Event.Signal().

I create a class, property OPDT as %Library.DateTime,the class extends %XML.Adaptor，after run " d obj.XMLExportToString(.xml)" OPDT`s value is 2023-11-28T13:57:26,but what i need is 2023-11-28 13:57:26,so is there any solution?

Welcome back to %SYS! If you read the first article in this series, you must have already seen how to manage your users through the Security.Users class programmatically. Today, we will move on to Resources! Many of the classes in this package use a very similar set of methods.

Hi Community,

Watch this video to learn how to achieve true Interoperability in Healthcare Systems which is all about going beyond the typical "syntactic" interoperability and understanding what's needed to bring that interoperability to the next level in healthcare:
