Considering new business interest in applying Generative-AI to local commercially sensitive private data and information, without exposure to public clouds. Like a match needs the energy of striking to ignite, the Tech lead new "activation energy" challenge is to reveal how investing in GPU hardware could support novel competitive capabilities. The capability can reveal the use-cases that provide new value and savings.

Sharpening this axe begins with a functional protocol for running LLMs on a local laptop.

The IKO will dynamically provision storage in the form of persistent volumes and pods will claim them via persistent volume claims.

But storage can come in different shapes and sizes. The blueprint to the details about the persistent volumes comes in the form of the storage class.

This raises the question: we've deployed the IrisCluster, and haven't specified a storage class yet. So what's going on?

You'll notice that with a simple

With the world (as well as our own technology) moving to the cloud at such a fast pace it is easy (at least for myself) to get caught up in the little details. One thing I, and some clients of ours, had run into a couple of times was the necessity to specify the version of the images one plans to use with the IKO.

The IKO allows for sidecars. The idea behind them is to have direct access to a specific instance of IRIS. If we have mirrored data nodes, the web gateway will (correctly) only give us access to the primary node. But perhaps we need access to a specific instance. The sidecar is the solution.

Building on the example from the previous article, we introduce the sidecar by using a mirrored data node and of course arbiter.

The Documentation team in InterSystems Learning Services is happy to announce the new InterSystems IRIS Server Migration Guide!

Have you ever wanted to copy, move, or clone an instance of InterSystems IRIS to a new server? Maybe the operating system on the old server is no longer supported, or maybe you want to add a new member to an existing mirror. Migrating your application databases is easy, but what about your tasks, users, roles, resources, and other security settings? What do you need to migrate, and how best to do it?

Hi everyone,

It's me again😁. As usual I would like to share something I study recently, and today, I would like to share about the document DB😁.

Are you a developer, data engineer, integration engineer, or data scientist who works hands-on with InterSystems products?

We are conducting 30-45 minute interviews to understand your experience — how you started with InterSystems products, where you find helpful code samples, and how we can improve our products to better support your journey.

✅ If you’re interested, fill out a quick survey to share your contact info and experience.

If you're selected, we will schedule a session at your convenience between April 2 and May 8 for an interview based on the information you provide.

🎁 As a thank-you, interview participants will receive 10,000 Global Masters points!

Your feedback will directly help us improve your experience using InterSystems products and services.

Kindly note that the spots are limited.

For IRIS 2019.1 and later, the documentation has a new look and feel. Check it out:

https://docs.intersystems.com/irislatest/csp/docbook/Doc.View.cls

The underlying changes include a new style sheet and a complete rewrite of the code we use to generate HTML. (There is now an underlying API for retrieving content as JSON, as well as a large set of unit tests -- for those of you who like that kind of thing!)

We have put a new modern and responsive UI design on top of our existing product documentation. It is available in a public beta here: http://docs.intersystems.com/beta/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.FramePage.cls

Please review the new design and give us your feedback.

All pods are assigned a Quality of Service (QoS). These are 3 levels of priority pods are assigned within a node.

The levels are as following:

1) Guaranteed: High Priority

2) Burstable: Medium Priority

3) BestEffort: Low Priority

It is a way of telling the kubelet what your priorities are on a certain node if resources need to be reclaimed. This great GIF below by Anvesh Muppeda explains it.

The 2024.1.4 and 2023.1.6 maintenance releases of InterSystems IRIS^® data platform, InterSystems IRIS^® for Health^TM, and HealthShare^® Health Connect are now Generally Available (GA).

IAM - InterSystems API Manager is a great tool for monitoring your traffic. If you are trying to use it in your Kubernetes cluster you may have tried doing a deployment similar to this one:

InterSystems has corrected a defect that causes invalid database and journal records to be introduced when using a specific $LIST syntax. The likelihood of encountering this defect is very low but the operational impacts can be significant.

InterSystems announces General Availability of InterSystems IRIS, InterSystems IRIS for Health, and HealthShare Health Connect 2024.3

The 2024.3 release of InterSystems IRIS^® data platform, InterSystems IRIS^® for Health, and HealthShare^® Health Connect is now Generally Available (GA).
