The OKR methodology (Objectives and Key Results or Objectives and Key Results) is used by the largest companies in the world (such as Google, Netflix, Spotify, BMW, Linkedin, etc.) for agile performance management. It was created in the 1970s by Andrew Grove, president of Intel, and introduced to the general public in his famous book “High Output Management”. Around 1998 John Doerr, one of the world's top venture capitalists, after coming into contact with Intel's OKR, introduced the model to Larry Page and Sergey Brin, who started a small company called Google. Sergey and Larry saw the great value of the methodology and began writing the first OKRs for Google and then their individual OKRs. Since then, the practice has become a quarterly routine at the company. According to Rick Klau (Google Ventures), “Google wasn't Google” until he started practicing OKRs at the beginning. The benefits of OKR are: It has a simple process; It works with short cycles; It involves the entire team; Brings clarity in direction; Increases the chance of success; Encourages high performance; Increases focus; Makes measuring results easier To design your OKR, start with the objectives, they should be: Limited in time (3 to 6 months) and scope; Clear and understood by everyone; Aligned with the company or product/project strategy; Measurable. For each objective, define 2 to 5 key outcomes that are also clear, time-limited, and measurable. The Analytics-OKR (https://openexchange.intersystems.com/package/Analytics-OKR) has a simple sample using IRIS BI (DeepSee) to monitor OKR. For see it, follow the steps: 1. Get the source code: git clone https://github.com/yurimarx/analytics-okr.git 2. Build and up the project: docker-compose build docker-compose up -d 3. Open the Dashboards in the User Portal: http://localhost:32792/csp/irisapp/_DeepSee.UserPortal.Home.zen?$NAMESPACE=IRISAPP&$NAMESPACE=IRISAPP& 4. Open the OKR Expanded Dashboard and see it: 5. You can see OKR about strategies to grow the InterSystems DC. See the other dashboards and pivot tables and enjoy it.

Hello Respected members, I am new with InterSystems IRIS , want to setup the environment on RHEL 7.5 with multiple lun layouts (separate LVM for DB , Journal, and WIJ), I would like to get some help in setting up the same, as far as I know, the installation will go through on a single directory ( I did not see any option to chose path/directory for DB's or WIJ /journals), hence after installation I would like to move my DB's to separate LVM and WIJ on another LVM set Please suggest or share the steps for the same document if any for the same, that will be really helpful, Thanks Regards RS 1. Install InterSystems IRIS. 2. Shut it down. 3. Open <iris>/iris.cpf, there you will find: [Databases] USER=C:\InterSystems\IRIS\Mgr\user\ [Journal] AlternateDirectory=C:\InterSystems\IRIS\Mgr\journal\ CurrentDirectory=C:\InterSystems\IRIS\Mgr\journal\ [config] wijdir=C:\InterSystems\IRIS\Mgr\WIJ 4. Edit this file as you wish and move the corresponding directories. 5. Start InterSystems IRIS. @Eduard.Lebedyuk Thank you so much for providing this information I would like to know if I can move only user database or default databases as well?? Like irislib, irisaudit, irislocaldata and other under mgr folder Please suggest if I can do this if yes then what sort of permission do I need to change for new directory path and what all files I need to copy at new location?? I want to setup my layout as given below Database LUNs = 8 x 512GB- - - > vg_iris_db Journal LUNs = 2 x 512GB - - > vg_iris_jrn WIJ LUNs = 2 x 256GB - - > vg_iris_wij Install and IRISTEMP LUNs = 2 x 128GB - - - > vg_iris_sys Please suggest if modification in iris.cpf file can do this all operation Thanks & Regards RS I would like to know if I can move only user database or default databases as well?? All databases can be moved what sort of permission do I need to change for new directory path irisusr should have RW access to the folder. The easiest way is to check what access (owner, group, permissions) is set for existing files/folders and then recreate the same in a new location. and what all files I need to copy at new location?? IRIS.DAT and stream subfolder if it exist. Please suggest if modification in iris.cpf file can do this all operation Absolutely. @Eduard.Lebedyuk Thank you so much for providing the detailed information. I am able to deploy the IRIS Instance with custom layout which I wanted to One thing I noticed that after installation I was able to see the instance running from command line but I was unable to access management portal with the URL that comes after installation, anything I missed or need to change to make it accessible? Please suggest Thanks RS Do you get Unable to connect or something else? What's the output of iris list? Hello Rahul, I'd check your messages.log to see messages regarding the private webserver.

The problem is at the OS level in resolving the hostname, scsps2391082001. If you replace the hostname in your URL with the actual IP of your server, it should work fine. If you want the hostname to work, I'd work with your OS/networking team to set that up.

Hi folks! Sometimes we need to import data into InterSystems IRIS from CSV. It can be done e.g. via csvgen tool that generates a class and imports all the data into it. But what if you already have your own class and want to import data from CSV into your existing table? There are numerous ways to do that but you can use csvgen (or csvgen-ui) again! I prepared and and example and happy to share. Here we go! The concept is the following: I have Class A and I want the data in file.csv that contains a column I need for my class. The steps: create Class B using csvgen, perform SQL Update to add class B data to the class A delete Class B. To demonstrate a concept I created a simple demo project . The project imports Countries dataset that contains dc_data.Country class with different information on countries including GNP. ClassMethod ImportCSV() As %Status { set sc = ##class(community.csvgen).GenerateFromURL("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/evshvarov/test-ipad/master/gnp.csv",",","dc.data.GNP") Return sc } But the data on GNP is outdated and I have the recent one in this CSV. Here is the method that shows GNP e.g. for Angola: ClassMethod ShowGNP() As %Status { Set sc = $$$OK &sql( SELECT TOP 1 name,gnp into :name,:gnp from dc_data.Country ) if SQLCODE < 0 throw ##class(%Exception.SQL).CreateFromSQLCODE(SQLCODE,"Show Country GNP") write "Country ",name," gnp=",gnp,! Return sc } So I import CSV in a generated class with one line: ClassMethod ImportCSV() As %Status { set sc = ##class(community.csvgen).GenerateFromURL("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/evshvarov/test-ipad/master/gnp.csv",",","dc.data.GNP") Return sc } and with the second line I perform an SQL query that imports the updated GNP data into my dc_data.Country class. ClassMethod UpdateGNP() As %Status { Set sc = $$$OK &sql( UPDATE dc_data.Country SET Country.gnp=GNP."2020" FROM dc_data.Country Country INNER JOIN dc_data.GNP GNP On Country.name=GNP.CountryName ) if SQLCODE < 0 throw ##class(%Exception.SQL).CreateFromSQLCODE(SQLCODE,"Importing data") w "Changes to GNP are made from dc.data.GNP",! Return sc } And then I delete generated class with its data as I don't need it any more. ClassMethod DropGNP() As %Status { Set sc = $$$OK &sql( DROP TABLE dc_data.GNP ) if SQLCODE < 0 throw ##class(%Exception.SQL).CreateFromSQLCODE(SQLCODE,"Drop csv table") write "dc.data.DNP class is deleted.",! Return sc } Well, here is the method that does all at once: ClassMethod RunAll() As %Status { Set sc = $$$OK zw ..ImportDataset() zw ..ShowGNP() zw ..ImportCSV() zw ..UpdateGNP() zw ..ShowGNP() zw ..DropGNP() Return sc } Of course it's just one approach to the problem but I hope it can be helpful. Looking forward for your feedback! Of course it's just one approach to the problem but I hope it can be helpful. Stay tuned for a dedicated LOAD DATA command in IRIS SQL coming very soon :-) Now csvgen supports LOAD DATA inside and is still useful to generate the class from scratch vs the arbitrary CSV.

Hi Developers! Want to raise security discussion today! Let's discuss how InterSystems security for applications works. In general, the concept is clear: we have Resources (what to protect), Roles which combine a set of privileges and accesses to Resources and Users which can have this or that Role. But there is also a concept of Application which also could have a Role. So you either provide a Role for a User or for an Application. What do you use in production? What is your strategy and why? Pros, cons? The applications you mentioned, it's not exactly applications, it's just kind of entrypoint to the application. Security in Caché and in IRIS now, was not so good in my opinion, for many reasons. An application developer, if he would like to use role-based security is too limited to use the Security model from InterSystems. And no matter how many different applications customers would like to use on their own Instance of IRIS, security will be global. Issues with mirroring, with ECP, any instance of IRIS use own tables, and have to be synchronized in some ways. Such big clusters should have the ability to use the same security settings on any instance, out of the box. Application, real, not virtual, should have the ability to re-use Security and store it close to Application's data. Security settings synchronization for mirroring and ECP is a different problem though a serious one. But there are strong recommendations from very experienced specialists to follow the Application-based security model. I want to have a discussion around - what are the key reasons for it? I think both should be used. If an application needs some privilege for itself (=for all users), e.g. for reading database with code, then this should be role for the application. If different users within same application have different permissions then this should (can) be handled via user roles.
