Deprecation of MultiValue in InterSystems IRIS 2025.1

As of InterSystems IRIS® data platform version 2025.1, InterSystems is officially deprecating MultiValue and including it in the Deprecated and Discontinued Features list. While InterSystems will continue to support existing customers using MultiValue, it is not recommended for new applications.

What This Means for You:

• Continued Support: Support for MultiValue will still be available through the Worldwide Response Center (WRC) on a "best effort" basis, as is provided for releases older than our Minimum Supported Versions.
• Future Removal Possibility: While there are no immediate plans to remove MultiValue from our products, InterSystems reserves the right to do so in a future release.
• Customer Guidance: If you have questions about your current or planned use of MultiValue, we encourage you to reach out to your InterSystems account team for guidance.

The deprecated designation signals that customers should plan to eliminate their use of MultiValue. We recognize that this may impact ongoing projects, and we appreciate your cooperation as we continue evolving our platform.
