InterSystems Caché database is a file where all the data, application scripts, and users, roles and security configurations are stored. Typically the name of the file is cache.dat.
Join our live webinar with Mike Leone, senior analyst with Enterprise Strategy Group’s Validation Services, to learn about a speed test that measures and compares the concurrent real-time data ingest and query performance of InterSystems IRIS® data platform, a leading in-memory database, a cloud relational database, and a traditional relational database.
The InterSystems IRIS has functions that allows create DIWK digital services. A few products have the ability to transform data into wisdom, according to the following pyramid.
I know that 1-1 relationships are not officialy supported by intersystems cache/iris so I want to know the best way to store data with this kind of data model.
Currently I have two classes that where implemented some time ago:
Table A with a relationship type one on table B
Table B with a relationship type one on table A
To compile I have a double compile with qualifyer U.
What is the best way to implement a data model with 1-1 relationships?
I have a set of strings that contains special characters. Im trying to write a sql query to remove all the special characters in the string. Im using Intersystems cache sql.
I would like to know if there is a way of having a callback or something similar, on persistent classes that is always called after the execution of the operation (failed or successfull).
%OnOpen is executed prior to the action, and there is no post callback
%OnAfterDelete and %OnAfterSave are executed after a successfull operation
Personal data privacy regulations have become an indispensable requirement for projects dealing with personal data. The compliance with these laws is based on 4 principles:
Sometimes you need quickly and easily import data into IRIS. For this, an IRIS import manager has been developed.
This application allows you to import JSON data and also provides a really simple interface for transferring data from MongoDB collections to IRIS globals. It has never been so easy.
In this article I'd like to share with you a phenomena that is best you avoid - something you should be aware of when designing your data model (or building your Business Processes) in Caché or in Ensemble (or older HealthShare Health Connect Ensemble-based versions).
I work on deploying IRIS inside Docker container. I really like %Installer class can automate many steps. I want to establish an ECP connection to a mirror database and then define a remote database on the application server. I have already seen we can create local database and namespace in %Installer. What code is needed to establish ECP connection?
In the first article in this series, we looked at the entity–attribute–value (EAV) model in relational databases, and took a look at the pros and cons of storing those entities, attributes and values in tables. We learned that, despite the benefits of this approach in terms of flexibility, there are some real disadvantages, in particular a basic mismatch between the logical structure of the data and its physical storage, which causes various difficulties.
In the first article in this series, we’ll take a look at the entity–attribute–value (EAV) model in relational databases to see how it’s used and what it’s good for. Then we'll compare the EAV model concepts to globals.
Hi, we have mirrored databases, now we have three nodes. Primary, backup, async. They are sync by journals and with some TB each node (expensive storage).
I would like to have a scenario where the two nodes (Primary and backup) have the same amount of messages (purge task of x days) , both as failover, but the asynchronous node should have more messaging, as much as the storage allows us. We want to use this node so provider can give support(search old messages), but not have databases in production that are so large that they are hardly consulted.
I've been reading the documentation guide for 2018.1 over frozen query plans several times in the last days (link) and there is an answer I can't seem to find directly.
For the recent contest, I've added a new feature, the ability to generate a static picture of any Cache or IRIS database. Like below. Where unique globals have a unique color. This is how looks like inside 9.5GB database. Where 1 pixel represents one block. By link on image you will get even bigger image, with more detalization.
Is there a way to query the database structure? In SSMS there are queries for finding tables with a column with a certain name (using LIKE). And there is the redgate tool SQL Search. But I'm not sure how to go about looking for columns that have say a value of 'PATID' and returning all tables that match. Does anyone know?

Thank you all for your continued feedback and support of our ad hoc reporting platform, VDM. There's been some questions around setting up a non-ODBC connection for InterSystems platforms. We published a new YouTube video showing the steps necessary to connect to InterSystems Caché and InterSystems IRIS with BridgeWorks VDM.
I am planning to build a WebApp that will have tons of data to display in tables, ability to add comments on that table rows and may be some few more small features as we move on.
1. It has to be Secure
2. It has to be fast
3. It has to be Non CSP / Non Zen
4. Will have Cache DB to pull records from but should be flexible to do that from any odbc resource
5. Version 2018 Ensemble
My first step would have been to investigate different options for technologies that would make it work and best suited with Ensemble 2018

The frequency with which the journal is synced depends on the operating circumstances of the InterSystems IRIS instance involved. A journal sync can be triggered:
My project need to restore the previous part of the log, and I use the rountine "^JRNRESTO" and filter. After recovery completed, the table structure is restored, but the table data is not restored, also unable to insert data into the table.
InterSystems IRIS supports a unique data structure, called globals, for information storage. Essentially, globals are persistent arrays with multi-level indices, having several extra capabilities—transactions, quick traversal of tree structures, and a programming language known as ObjectScript.
I'd note that for the remainder of the article, or at least the code samples, we'll assume you have familiarised yourself with the basics of globals:
I would begin the process on Saturday morning, but am concerned, due to the size, that it would not complete by Sunday evening. I understand that the process is setup so that it can run with users on the system, however, as the advice indicates, this would not be ideal.
Can the process be stopped if it does not complete by the time you want/need it to?
Do you know how to guestimate how long the process would take?
Greetings community. I would like to know how to migrate a BD in production to a local environment. When I have a system in production (BD Sql Server) what we do is mount a local copy to do the analysis with the data and not occupy resources of the system in production. My question is: How do you do it with Intersystems technology?
I am trying to update an year on a date field in a cache database table but it showing an error message. But the functions are working on select query. The query I used is
update RB_ResEffDateSessPayorRestr SET RESTR_DATETo = DATEADD(YYYY,1,RESTR_DATETo) where YEAR(RESTR_DATETo)=2020
I tried to update only the year which are 2020.
Can anyone please help me, Is there any error in the query?
