#Cubes

Starting with InterSystems IRIS 2025.1, the way dependent cubes are handled in cube builds and cube synchronizes was changed.

This change may require modifying custom build/synchronize methods. If you are using the Cube Manager, these changes are already considered and handled, which means no action is needed.

Prior to this change, cubes were required to be built and synchronized in the proper order and account for any cube relationships/dependencies. With this change, dependent cubes are automatically updated as needed when using the %BuildCube or %SynchronizeCube APIs.

Hi everyone, on HealthShare Unified Care Record 2024.1.0 Build, we're using the Analytics section to create a dashboard containing a time chart showing a cumulative curve of the number of documents indexed in the registry for each documentSource of each repository. We tried the following steps: we created a cube whose dimensions are the CreationDate, SourceValue, and repositoryUniqueID of the HS_Registry.Document table; in the Analytics section, we created a pivot table that lists the document creation date on each row, along with as many columns as each repository's documentSources.

Hello all,

I'm trying to build a cube based on a linked table but seems that IRIS is not able to do it :O

Long story short, I have a linked table in IRIS that sources a Microsoft SQL table (using standard linked feature from the portal). It works fine, I can access it using SQL as many other times. On top of that, I've created in DeepSee (ok, Analytics) a cube that uses this class as source. It compiles correctly, no errors given. When I build it with 100 records, all goes well and using Analyzer I can see results.

Existing cube deleted.
Fact table built:             1,000 fact(s) (Max number of worker(s) used at a time: 1)
Fact indices built:           1,000 fact(s) (1 worker(s) used)

Complete
Elapsed time:                  1.788246s
Source expression time:        0.000856s

Maybe this is well known but wanted to help share.

Consider that you have the following persistent class defintions

An Invoice Class with a property reference to Provider

ClassExtends%PersistentAs

and Provider

If you call the Build method in Sample.Invoice you can query this with SQL

As

and see

The area this article discusses is deciding how to create a dimension on Provider.

What I have found works well is to following this pattern

Hello all,

We are currently developing a set of cubes in Unified Care Report (UCR) for data analysis purposes. However, we are encountering issues with cube dependencies, where certain cubes rely on others to be compiled beforehand. The complexity of these dependencies is becoming increasingly difficult to manage, particularly when attempting to deploy the cubes.

The problem arises when trying to compile a cube that depends on another cube, which may also have its own dependencies. For instance, when compiling the Test.Cube.EncounterHealthPlans

Hi Community,

I seek your assistance for below scenario.

Scenario-1: How to add filter or where clause while displaying data with listing fields ( I have not used Custom SQL listing to display this data).

For below table, I have created a Cube Student and I have created listing fields of the columns mentioned in the table. Also I have created the pivot and  I am able to create the same table as shown below.

Now in another pivot, if I want to display all same detail with Student marks greater than 82. How to do that. Basically I want to know how to apply filter when using listing fields in a cube.

Hi All,

I'm looking to write a 3rd party front end for BI cubes and have been directed towards the REST API here: https://docs.intersystems.com/iris20222/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls…

I've had quick test using postman and can use those fine, the issue I have is that there are some areas of metadata not exposed by the api that are essential to write a front end tool. I can list the cubes and measures using the /INFO/ paths, but that seems to be the limit of what is available.

we have this container code where we want to create more CalcMember properties

So we need some syntax help how to use INLIST, NOTINLIST and CASE expressions. Anyone can help what should be the syntax for Expression to handle below 3 situations.

InterSystems IRIS Business Intelligence allows you to keep your cubes up to date in multiple ways. This article will cover building vs synchronizing. There are also ways to manually keep cubes up to date, but these are very special cases and almost always cubes are kept current by building or synchronizing.

What is Building?

The build starts by removing all data in the cube. This ensures that the build is starting in a clean state. The build then goes through all records specified by the source class.

When designing a hierarchy in DeepSee, a child member must have only one parent member. In the case where a child corresponds to two parents, the results can become unreliable. In the case where two similar members exist, their keys must be changed so that they are unique. We will take a look at two examples to see when this happens and how to prevent it.

Example 1

There are a handful of states with a city named Boston. In my sample data, I have records from both Boston, MA and Boston, NY. My dimension is defined as:

City and State are simply strings in my case.

I regret getting a late start in the InterSystems Analytics contest. I had tried a couple of times before to use Analytics, but I had not gotten too far. I have been recording financial transactions in Excel workbook ever since I had to retire Microsoft Money. Since my iris-for-money was not fully functional, I created a worksheet per account I was tracking. I had developed a CSP page in iris-for-money to import transactions by reading a CSV file. I realized this process requires escaping many characters that can cause the process to fail.

Let's say I have a persistent class Sales.
I need to create a report that shows the amount of sales for each branch.
By simply using the class Sales for the source of the cube, I can show what I want with one little exception - the branches that did not have any sales are not shown.
Is there a way around that that does not involve creating a whole new table just for this cube or using a Data connector (they have horrible documentation and I am unable to figure out how to use them properly)?

Hi everyone,

It's the bottom of the 9th inning, but I have a few more plays to make in our technical World Series 

InterSystems IRIS Business Intelligence provides the Cube Registry as an interface for managing and scheduling build and synchronize tasks for your cubes. The Cube Event Monitor is a new tool on Open Exchange to help you keep track of those events' status and performance, the number of records being updated, and any build errors (errors when processing individual records) that have occurred.

Hi Developers and Interface Engineers!

I'd like to share with you how you can help your organization today obtain a better understanding of key message processing metrics (i.e. average message processing times, number of inbound messages, number of outbound messages, etc.)! Given the embedded IRIS database powering integration, you already have all the data you need -- you just need to put the data to use and present them in a user-friendly format!

I'm looking for a means to dynamically specify and/or limit the data from the source that goes into a cube at build time.

I have a single data class that defines my source, and as the data within this table/collection grows/changes over time, I would like to be able to control which records actually make it into the indexed cube, but I'm having a hard time (short of defining a stored procedure to use instead of the extent query) for populating my cube indexes.

DeepSeeButtons is available on Open Exchange! This tool will generate a diagnostic report of your DeepSee environment.

The report consists of multiple sections. These sections range from System Details to Caché/InterSystems IRIS logs to Cube information. In addition to simply providing information about the environment, some common recommended configurations are checked. If a recommended configuration is not used, an alert is displayed highlighting that the environment configuration does not match the recommended configuration.

Hi, 

As we announced at our Global Summit in October, we are developing dedicated connectors for a number of third-party data visualization tools for InterSystems IRIS. With these connectors, we want to combine an excellent user experience with optimal performance when using those tools to visualize data managed on InterSystems IRIS Data Platform.

Hi I am experienced with Ensemble but working in my first DeepSee project, so forgive me if this seems elementary. 

My question is, how do I clear  the data out? Every time I build I am adding more and more data. But I would like to revert my cube to being 0 so I can reload it and start over? Set my row count back to 0?

I am unable to remove/purge through the management portal

-I've tried to kill my cube Do ##class(%DeepSee.Utils).%KillCube("MyCube.Cube")  and then Rebuild it. 

Thanks In advance

How do I best create a filter in DeepSee to restrict query results for the current login, that is where the results are filtered by a Dimension compared to the ObjectScript special variable $USERNAME or an ObjectScript expression that restricts what the current user is allowed to see?

Working on "HealthShare 2019.1 [HealthShare Modules: Core:17.0.9941 + Patient Index:17.0.9941 + Clinical Viewer:17.0.9941 + Active Analytics:17.0.9941] - Cache for Windows (x86-64) 2018.1.1 (Build 312_1_18859U) Tue Mar 19 2019 00:43:30 EDT"

In creating a DeepSee Cube - Pivot - Dashboard I am not finding out how to sort my rows by the row label value.

My Rows are numeric values, but they are sorting lexically not numerically.

I want to have a generic PercentOfAll measure that can be used for any dimension of the cube. This PercentOfAll should act like Count, but instead of showing the number of rows in a cell, it will show the percentage  (100*number of rows for that member/all rows) .It should not matter what dimension is being viewed. Ex

There are a total of 100 rows in the source class.

For dimension columnA which returns value in  ColumnA column in source class, 10 rows contain "A" the rest contain "null".

Hi community,

I’m working in a project for a Chile Police and I need to know if it’s possible to build a hierarchy in Deepsee like Zone- Prefecture – Comisaria – Destacamentos (there are 4 levels of police units) , but these information are only in one table that has the code, the father ,description and UnitType. (it’s recursive) . Example:

Hi all.

I have some problem with getting data from external source (PostgreSQL) via JDBC and load it in DeepSee and I resolved some problems while writing this question :)

So..Below I proved my steps of working:

1. Created SQL Gateway Connection
2. Created class for loading data via JDBC
   

   S Connection=##class

   1. In 2 line I got exception (not saved it) and I exclusive this option
3. Next I Created projections via SQL wizard and now all tables stored in Cache and I get needed data via  ##class(%ResultSet.SQL).%Prepare()
4. After that I create model (StudentRating) in sequence by result set

Hello, I've completed this tutorial: https://community.intersystems.com/post/deepsee-period-date-vs-same-per…
I've used the "year" level instead of a pivot variable.
I want to calculate something like the following variation: 100 * ([DateOfSale].[PTD] - [DateOfSale].[LYPTD]) / [DateOfSale].[LYPTD]
I create a new calculated member, under the same dimmension with the above expression.
I put the new calculated member under the Count measure and it tells me that "Two measures cannot be crossjoined"
What am I doing wrong?
Can you redirect me to some explanations and maybe a solution?
Thanks!

Hello comrades! I started using DeepSee Cube Registry, but i don't know how to move and deploy it to another server. Please tell me how do it.
