Why do these clauses affect SQL performance?

select ID from some_table where row_status in ('I','U') order by ID limit 5 - makes the query infinite
select top 10 ID from some_table where row_status in ('I','U') order by ID - the same
select ID from some_table where row_status in ('I','U') order by ID - is fast

Actually there are no rows in the table having row_status 'I' or 'U'.

I asked Gemini and it recommended me rewrite the query as

As applications grow, every database eventually hits scaling limits. Whether it's storage capacity, concurrent users, query throughput, or I/O bandwidth, single-server architectures have inherent constraints. This guide explains fundamental approaches to database scalability and shows how InterSystems IRIS implements these patterns to support enterprise-scale workloads.

We'll explore two complementary scaling strategies: horizontal scaling for user volume (distributing computational load) and sharding for data volume (partitioning datasets). Understanding the general principles behind these approaches will help you make informed decisions about when and how to scale your IRIS applications.

The examples in this guide use InterSystems IRIS in Docker containers.

Needs some help with FHIR return code 200 or 201 when processing HL7 messages in HealthConnect.

Issue:

1. If FHIR code is 200 or 201, HealthConnect keep processing HL7 messages

2. If FHIR code is NOT 200 or 201, HealthConnect keep suspend the HL7 messages in the messages queue, then keep processing NEXT subsequent HL7 messages in the TEXT file if the FHIR code is 200 or 201

If one of your packages on OEX receives a review, you get notified by OEX only of YOUR own package.
The rating reflects the experience of the reviewer with the status found at the time of review.
It is kind of a snapshot and might have changed meanwhile.
Reviews by other members of the community are marked by * in the last column.

Over the last year, the CCR development team has prioritized changes to the CCR application to better expose and encourage best practices for using CCR. This article will highlight some of the areas that we've focused on:

  • Organization Dashboard
  • System Alerts
  • Branch Hygiene

In each of these areas, we have increased the visibility of potential CCR usage issues and given users tools to proactively address them.

Organization Dashboard

We have continued to build out the available information on the Organization details page

Archiving my OEX packages

Over the last 9 years, I published more than 90 packages in OEX.
And over this time, conditions and environments changed.
In the beginning, there was

  • no Docker
  • no IPM/ZPM
  • no embedded Python, no AI
  • Caché, Ensemble, CSP, ZEN, .... were dominating

As time changed, also product versions and external languages changed.
Adjustment of a few packages was no issue in the beginning,
and was a matter of support quality to my "consumers".
