Introduction

In a previous article, I presented the IRIStool module, which seamlessly integrates the pandas Python library with the IRIS database. Now, I'm explaining how we can use IRIStool to leverage InterSystems IRIS as a foundation for intelligent, semantic search over healthcare data in FHIR format.

This article covers what I did to create the database for another of my projects, the FHIR Data Explorer. Both projects are candidates in the current InterSystems contest, so please vote for them if you find them useful.

You can find them at the Open Exchange:

In this article we'll cover:

  • Connecting to InterSystems IRIS database through Python
  • Creating a FHIR-ready database schema
  • Importing FHIR data with vector embeddings for semantic search

I am writing a little app where I press a button on a Zen form. It calls a ZenMethod that uses zenPage.launchPopupWindow() to provide me a way to choose a file. I then click on an upload button that calls a csp cache language script file that runs on the server, that grabs the contents of the file and stuffs it into a global. I want it then close and return to the parent window to continue processing the contents of the file.

Hi everyone,

I’ve set up a scheduled task in InterSystems IRIS to run every night at 2:00 AM, but it doesn’t seem to trigger consistently. Some nights it works as expected, but other times it just skips without any error in the logs.

The task is marked as enabled, and there are no conflicts in the Task Manager. I’ve double-checked the system time and time zone settings all looks fine.

Has anyone tried the Ansible module for qlist in the article "Ansible modules and IRIS demo"?

There appears to be a bug in the qlist code as it assumes that the qlist output has an undocumented field.

I do not have the undocumented field in the output.when I run qlist so I keep getting the error "Unexpected IRIS qlist output format".

I assume that in most cases there is no undocumented field in the output.

Hi everyone

I hope this message finds you well. I am currently working with a database system that allows the configuration of certain options using the SET OPTION statement.

SET OPTION SUPPORT_DELIMITED_IDENTIFIERS = TRUE;

I understand that this setting takes effect at the system level, impacting all sessions and processes. However, I am looking for a way to enable support for delimited identifiers that only affects the current session, without altering the global configuration.

My question is:

I'm trying to get the python external language server started up in a container I am starting. The container is up and running but I cannot get the python language server to start.

This is the error that is coming back when trying to start the language server. I have tried creating a custom image with that package installed but it still does not work. Is there something specific that needs to be done to to get this working? (FYI, I have the dotnet version working but creating a custom image and installing the dotnet runtimes via a docker file)

FastJsonSchema: High-Performance JSON Validation in IRIS

Validating JSON data against JSON Schema is a common requirement for modern applications. FastJsonSchema brings this capability natively to InterSystems IRIS, combining speed, simplicity, and full schema compliance.

Unlike traditional validation approaches, FastJsonSchema generates native ObjectScript code from your JSON Schemas and compiles it directly to iris object code, enabling idiomatic performance without relying on external libraries or runtimes.

To manage the accumulation of production data, InterSystems IRIS enables users to manage the database size by periodically purging the data. This purge can apply to messages, logs, business processes, and managed alerts.

Please check the documentation for more details on the settings of the purge task:

⏯️ Auto-scaling made easy in GKE with InterSystems Kubernetes Operator (IKO)

Kubernetes horizontal pod auto-scaling (HPA) is the key to handle the unpredictable compute workload in healthcare systems. IKO helps orchestrating the IRIS container deployment in Kubernetes including the capability to configure HPA. This demo uses XSLT processing as an example to showcase this type of elasticity.

Hi all!

I want to create an %Embedding.Config to use with an %Embedding property. I followed the documentation for %Embedding.OpenAI, and it works fine after setting sslConfig, modelName, and apiKey.

However, I need to use AzureOpenAI. While the embedding process is similar to OpenAI's, Azure requires additional connection parameters, like an endpoint.
My question is: is it possible to configure these extra parameters with %Embedding.Config, and if so, how?

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

Hi,

To add or get information about a user for the management portal you can [within the portal]:
System Administration > Security Management > Users

Is it possible to:

1. List a user, user's properties including roles

2. Add a user and set user's properties including roles

3. Set a user's password

for the management portal using a program eg. Objectscript and/or SQL?

If so, how can this be done?

It would be great if you have examples.
