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.

Hey, Developer Community!

We’ve launched a brand-new activity on Global Masters — the Article Bounty!
It’s your chance to share your expertise, help fellow developers, and, of course, earn points while doing it.

👉 Join the August Article Bounty on Global Masters here

Earlier, we launched the Submit an Article Idea challenge — where Global Masters members could suggest new articles, tutorials, how-tos, and more. We received an overwhelming number of fantastic ideas!

👉 Now, once a month, we’ll publish a list of 10 in-demand topics requested by the community.
You can choose a topic from the list, write an article about it, and earn bounty of 🏆 5,000 points when the article is approved.

Sending emails is a common requirement in integration scenarios — whether for client reminders, automatic reports, or transaction confirmations. Static messages quickly become hard to maintain and personalize. This is where the templated_email module comes in, combining InterSystems IRIS Interoperability with the power of Jinja2 templates.

Why Jinja2 for Emails

Jinja2 is a popular templating engine from the Python ecosystem that enables fully dynamic content generation. It supports:

Hi community.

I was wondering if it was possible to use something like EnsLib.SQL.InboundAdapter with tables in IRIS.

This library monitors when a record has been inserted into a table in an external database, so it requires a DSN to connect to that database.

My goal is to make a call to an external API that takes a long time, it could spend nearly an hour (or more) completing its processes, but I don't want to block the main process.

⏯️ Introducing InterSystems Go tHE DIStance

InterSystems Go tHE DIStance is a next-generation care management solution aimed at helping health plans address rising unmanaged healthcare costs and declining quality ratings, particularly in chronic condition management like diabetes. The platform integrates rich, real-time clinical data (rather than relying solely on delayed claims data) into interactive views that can track HEDIS performance, identify care gaps, and support targeted, personalized outreach through built-in communication tools. Care managers can access a unified clinical record, engagement history, and recommended next actions to improve both individual patient outcomes and broader population health.

I have a personal copy of Cache which I use to help me with certain things. The instance resides on my Windows desktop. The apps I use a web enabled. It would be great if I could access my apps via web browser from my laptop without having to keep a copy of Cache on my laptop. It would make it difficult to keep the databases synced. So, if I restart my Cache instance, then I can use get to my apps by entering the url: http://ipadd:57772/csp/user/myapp.cls.

Hi,

How do I create CSP page in IIS to be loaded from the class?

Im able to open my index.html but I have class webapp.init.cls which extends %CSP.Page which should generate html. If I write localhost/myapp/webapp.init.cls I just got an error Invalid action.

In IIS Handler Mappings I did setup for *.cls and *.csp files.

I followed this

Hi,

Has anyone used 'IO-Redirect' package?

https://openexchange.intersystems.com/package/io-redirect

IRIS for me runs on a Linux server.

I want the package to be able to supply "answers" from a Linux OS file in response to a program run as follows:
do ^ADMIN
I'm assuming that the program does objectscript reads from the terminal

Questions

Hi Everyone!

The Certification Team of InterSystems Learning Services is currently developing an InterSystems ObjectScript Specialist certification exam. Earlier this month we reached out to our community for feedback that will help us evaluate and establish the contents of this exam. We are still currently accepting responses and would love to hear your feedback!
