Hi Developers! In January we introduced into Developers Community: New postings type - Discussions; No more answers - only comments-replies; bug fixes and small improvements. See the details below. Discussions We had requests for this type of posts - when it is not an article, it's not a question which needs a discreet answer, but a discussion where you want to know people's opinions. It can be combined with polls. So, we introduced it and people already contribute discussions. Answers Conversion to Comments A lot of people were confused with Answers: when you reply to the question, is it an answer or comment? If the comment is really an answer topic starter couldn't accept it. Search in answers or in comments? We solved it - all answers are now comments, but you can accept comments as an answer to the question. And no more doubts about replying to a question. See the discussion. Bug fixes We fixed a few bugs when you didn't get email notifications on some comments. We also fixed a few smaller bugs and improved the performance. Here is the full kanban of solved issues in January 2020. Here is the planned kanban for February 2020. Submit your ideas, bug fixes, contribute to Developers Community and stay tuned!

You may have seen earlier this week that we launched a brand-new learning podcast called Data Points! There are three episodes released, one of which was a really interesting discussion with Thomas Dyar — a product specialist here at InterSystems focused on machine learning. Take a listen and reach out if you're interested in exploring more about IntegratedML! You can check out the other two episodes — one on InterSystems IRIS and one on Kubernetes — by going to https://datapoints.intersystems.com. That page also has links to subscribe on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and more!

Hi Developers! In March 2020 we improved again developers community engine and introduced the following new features: PDF export and print option for every post; more than one accepted answer; filter mentioning for silent members; bug fixes and minor enhancements. See the details below. PDF export and print option for every post With this release you can export in pdf or print every post. You can make it with two buttons in the top right corner of the post, see screenshot: More than one accepted answer Often we have situations when the question has more than one reply and several replies could be considered as an answer. And previously you should choose which one to accept. With this release, you can choose several replies as accepted answers in one question to make people understand which replies answer it. Check your questions with no accepted answers and see maybe you have answers already. Exclude silent members from mentioning This enhancement improves mentioning by excluding members who never posted from the options list. This will helps also with duplicated accounts filtering the list to active members only. Bug fixes and small improvements As always we fixed a lot of minor bugs, such as the bug in a search, improved events management and so on. Check the full kanban of solved issues in March 2020. Here is the planned kanban for April 2020. Submit your ideas, bug fixes, contribute to Developers Community and stay tuned!

Hi, Do you have any experience in inserting a panda dataframe into SQL IRIS Table? The dataframe.to_sql method uses sqlalchemy and it seems no dialect is available for IRIS. thanks, Blaise You can use PythonGateway or IRIS Native for Python to do that. PythonGateway can retrieve dataframe (any object really) as a JSON. Here's a corresponding discussion on the SQL side of things. Thank you Eduard. At this time, we use JDBC connection and INSERT sql command from panda but we look for a more integrated way to do that. Both suggested approaches offer a tight in-process way of InterSystems IRIS - Python integration. I will show some live examples of bidirectional InterSystems IRIS - Python integration in Best Practices for in-platform AI/ML Webinar. Offtopic but generic JDBC provider for SQLAlchemy has been discussed for years in Python community but nothing has been done.

InterSystems has decided to stop further development of SAM (System Alerting & Monitoring) and label it as deprecated as of today. InterSystems will continue to support existing customers using the technology, but it is no longer recommended for new deployments. We’ve found that most customers who are interested in the type of observability provided by SAM have chosen to connect IRIS’s metrics API & structured logs to their organization’s existing observability platform in order to have a more complete view of their operational platform. Customers with questions on their current or planned use of SAM should reach out to their account team or contact me directly. Okay, I've been waiting for this. SAM has shown us what is already possible related to monitoring IRIS and the extension with custom metrics is great but it indeed did not integrate very well in existing monitoring solutions. I would like to see a growing community around enhancing IRIS-monitoring. I'm especially interested in getting all the different logs from IRIS into Grafana.Maybe the Grafana-Intersystems-Plugin by Dmitri Maslennikow or an Intersystems-Plugin for Loki might do the trick? Has somebody already achieved this? I don't have any requests for any improvements for the plugin if you wish to try and have some ideas what needs to be added, you are welcome in issues Does this SAM deprecation affect both the server APIs and client appliance (the SAM component shipped as docker containers with grafana-prometheus-iris, etc), or can the SAM Serverside APIs with custom metrics still be used? this is only the SAM container. the APIs it consumes will stay and there are no plans to deprecated those. I hope that the APIs (e.g. /api/monitor/metrics) will still work, so metrics can still be embeded into any monitoring tool that we are using like dataDog. Is this correct to assume? my understanding is that there will be no changes made to those APIs, nor plans to deprecate them. That is what Bob was referring to when he said most orgs use their own monitoring solutions to consume the IRIS data (via those APIs) ... so the APIs will stay, but SAM as an out of the box consumer of the metrics will be deprecated Intersystems REST Api for Metrics For anyone who wants to take a look at the api

Hi Developers, We have exciting news! The new InterSystems online programming contest dedicated to all things health-related will start very soon! 🏆 InterSystems FHIR and Digital Health Interoperability Contest 🏆 Duration: January 15 - February 4, 2024 Prize pool: $14,000 The topic Develop any interoperability FHIR solution or Healthcare Interoperability solution or a solution that helps to develop or/and maintain interoperability solutions using InterSystems IRIS for Health, Health Connect, or FHIR server.

InterSystems Supported Platforms Update Feb-2023 Welcome to the very first Supported Platforms Update! We often get questions about recent and upcoming changes to the list of platforms and frameworks that are supported by the InterSystems IRIS data platform. This update aims to share recent changes as well as our best current knowledge on upcoming changes, but predicting the future is tricky business and this shouldn’t be considered a committed roadmap. We’re planning to publish this kind of update approximately every 3 months and then re-evaluate in a year. If you find this update useful, let us know! We’d also appreciate suggestions for how to make it better. With that said, on to the update… IRIS Production Operating Systems and CPU Architectures Red Hat Enterprise Linux Recent Changes IRIS 2022.1.2 adds support for RHEL 9.0. 9.0 is a major OS release that updates the Linux Kernel to 5.14, OpenSSL to 3.0, and Python 3.9 IRIS 2022.2.0 removes support for RHEL 7.x. RHEL 7.9 is still supported in earlier versions of IRIS. Upcoming Changes RHEL 9.1 was released in November, 2022. Red Hat is supporting this minor version only until RHEL 9.2 is released, so InterSystems will not be adding 9.1 as a supported platform. RHEL 9.2 is planned to be released in late Q2, 2023 and Red Hat is planning to support 9.2 for 4 years. InterSystems is planning to do additional testing of IRIS on RHEL 9.2 through a new process we’re calling “Minor OS version certification” that is intended to provide additional security that a minor OS update didn’t break anything obvious. RHEL 8.4 extended maintenance ends 5/31/2023, which means that IRIS will stop supporting this minor version at that time as well. Further reading: RHEL Release Page Ubuntu Recent Changes IRIS 2022.1.1 adds support for Ubuntu 22.04. 22.04 is a major OS release that updates the Linux Kernel to 5.15, OpenSSL to 3.0.2, and Python 3.10.6 IRIS 2022.2.0 removes support for Ubuntu 18.04. Ubuntu 18.04 is still supported in earlier versions of IRIS. IRIS 2022.1.1 & up containers are based on Ubuntu 22.04. Upcoming Changes Ubuntu 20.04.05 LTS and 22.04.01 LTS have been recently released. InterSystems is planning to do additional testing of IRIS on 20.04.05 LTS and 22.04.01 LTS through a new process we’re calling “Minor OS version certification”. We’ll have more on these “Minor OS version certifications” in a future newsletter. The next major update of Ubuntu is scheduled for April, 2024 Further Reading: Ubuntu Releases Page SUSE Linux Recent Changes IRIS 2022.3.0 adds support for SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15 SP4. 15 SP4 is a major OS release that updates the Linux Kernel to 5.14, OpenSSL to 3.0, and Python 3.9 Upcoming Changes Based on their release rhythm, we expect SUSE to release 15 SP5 late Q2 or early Q3 with support added to IRIS after that. Further Reading: SUSE lifecycle Oracle Linux Recent Changes IRIS 2022.3.0 adds support for Oracle Linux 9. Oracle Linux 9 is a major OS release that tracks RHEL 9, so it, too, updates the Linux Kernel to 5.14, OpenSSL to 3.0, and Python 3.9 Upcoming Changes Oracle Linux 9.1 was released in January, 2023. Further Reading: Oracle Linux Support Policy Microsoft Windows Recent Changes We haven’t made any changes to the list of supported Windows versions since Windows Server 2022 was added in IRIS 2022.1 Upcoming Changes Windows Server 2012 will reach its end of extended support in October, 2023. If you’re still running on the platform, now is the time to plan migration. Further Reading: Microsoft Lifecycle AIX Recent Changes We haven’t made any changes to the list of supported AIX versions since AIX 7.3 was added and 7.1 removed in IRIS 2022.1 Upcoming Changes InterSystems is working closely with IBM to add support for OpenSSL 3.0. This will not be included in IRIS 2023.1.0 as IBM will need to target the feature in a further TL release. The good news is that IBM is looking to release OpenSSL 3.0 for both AIX 7.2 & 7.3. IBM released AIX 7.3 TL1 in December and certification is in progress. The next TL releases are expected in April. Further Reading: AIX Lifecycle Containers Recent Changes We are now publishing multi-architecture manifests for IRIS containers. This means that pulling the IRIS container tagged 2022.3.0.606.0 will download the right container for your machine’s CPU architecture (Intel/AMD or ARM). If you need to pull a container for a specific CPU architecture, tags are available for architecture-specific containers. For example, 2022.3.0.606.0-linux-amd64 will pull the Intel/AMD container and 2022.3.0.606.0-linux-arm64v8 will pull the ARM container. Upcoming Changes We will phase out the arm-specific image names, such as iris-arm64 in favor of the multi-architecture manifests in the second-half of the year. We will also start to tag the preview containers with “-preview” so that it’s clear which container is the most recent GA release. IRIS Development Operating Systems and CPU Architectures MacOS Recent Changes We haven’t made any changes to the list of supported MacOS versions since we moved to MacOS 11 in IRIS 2022.1 Upcoming Changes We’re planning to add support for MacOS 13 in 2023, perhaps as early as IRIS 2023.1. CentOS We are considering removing support for CentOS/CentOS Stream. See reasoning below. Red Hat has been running a developer program for a few years now, which gives developers access to free licenses for non-production environments. Developers currently using CentOS are encouraged to switch to RHEL via this program. CentOS Stream is now “upstream” of RHEL, meaning that it has bugs & features not yet included in RHEL. It also updates daily, which can cause problems for developers building on the platform (to say nothing of our own testing staff). We haven’t made any changes to the list of supported CentOS versions since we added support for CentOS 8-Stream and removed support for CentOS 7.9 in IRIS 2022.1 Caché & Ensemble Production Operating Systems and CPU Architectures Recent Changes Cache 2018.1.7 adds support for Windows 11 InterSystems Supported Platforms Documentation The InterSystems Supported Platforms documentation is source for definitive list of supported technologies. IRIS 2020.1 Supported Server Platforms IRIS 2021.1 Supported Server Platforms IRIS 2022.1 Supported Server Platforms IRIS 2022.3 Supported Server Platforms Caché & Ensemble 2018.1.7 Supported Server Platforms … and that’s all folks. Again, if there’s something more that you’d like to know about, please let us know. Nice work on the containers side @Robert.Kuszewski !
