Docker image with HL7 v2 support?

#Docker #HL7 #InterSystems IRIS for Health

Hi

I've had a play with the Docker image for IRIS Community Edition, but was disappointed to find that it seems to lack any of the HL7 v2 features that I'm familiar with in Ensemble/HealthShare. Is there another image with these features enabled (IRIS for Health Community Edition perhaps?) or is there any plan to make such a Docker image available? I'm a big fan of the move towards publishing Community Editions of your tools as this makes it possible to both maintain skills when work dictates using other technologies and licensed installations are not available, and also pursue development tasks purely as a hobby / personal development activity. However, the lack of the HL7 features is a big omission.

 

Thanks

Duncan

Hi Duncan,

great to hear that you find the community edition beneficial! We are currently working on making the IRIS for Health Community Edition available on the docker store as well. I can't give you an exact time window, but it shouldn't be too far away. Stay tuned, it will be announced on the developer community when it is available.

As Sylvain has pointed out, you can always pull the images from the WRC Distribution page if you are a registered partner. The offerings on AWS, Azure or GCP can still be helpful with zero cost, as you often get a voucher when you sign-up for a new account. Enough for playing around for sure.

Best,

Stefan
