I have been working on redesigning a Health Connect production which runs on a mirrored instance of Healthshare 2019. We were told to take advantage of containers. We got to work on IRIS 2020.1 and split the database part from the Interoperability part. We had the IRIS mirror running on EC2 instances and used containers to run IRIS interoperability application. Eventually we decided to run the data tier in containers as well. Later we switched from using EC2 instances to Fargate “server-less” compute.

I heard about Message Bank when we started redesigning a Health Connect production to run in containers in the cloud. Since there will be multiple IRIS containers, we were directed to utilize Message Bank as one place to view messages and logs from all containers.

How does Message Bank work?

I added Message Bank operation to our Interoperability Production. It automatically sends messages and event logs to the Message Bank.

Resending Messages

The Message Bank provides an interface for portal user to resend messages from the Message Bank portal.

Hi All,

I have a requirement where I have to create a TIF file from base64 encoded string comes in HL7 message.

I am reading content and writing to  %Stream.FileBinary after decoding and using  ..Adapter.PutStream ( EnsLib.File.OutboundAdapter) to create a file at operation. the file is getting created but its corrupted.

IS this even possible in cache? what is the correct way of doing this?

How to access files in shared folder with Healthconnet or Cache？Thx！（Read or write，not local file）大家好，我想请教一个问题，如何在Health Connect实现访问共享文件夹的文件 （对文件进行读取或者写入操作，非本地文件）

We need to upgrade from Healthshare 2016.2 to HealthConnect latest but we are too far behind the current version to do an upgrade in situ.

So I need to create a new instance of HealthConnect and the copy across all the database definitions, namespaces and classes.

I know its possible to script this stuff and pull all the definitions out of the old Healthshare system and then apply them to the new HealthConnect instance.

Has anyone done anything like this before that they would be happy to share with me so I could use it as a starting point rather than re-invent the wheel again?

Regards

Hello developer community, I'm looking for Ensemble production sftp examples. I need to copy hl7 files hourly from several servers to a central server. The local documentation is no longer as good as it used to be. I remember several years ago, the documentation would take you step by step doing this.  Any information would be appreciated.

thanks,

Introduction

This article aims to provide an overview of InterSystems IRIS FHIR Accelerator Service (FHIRaaS) driven by the implementation of application iris-on-fhir, available in OEX developed for the FHIRaaS contest.

A basic tutorial will guide you in configuring a function FHIRaaS deployment, including an API key and an OAuth 2.0 server.

A library to use FHIR resources through FHIRaaS also is briefly discussed.

Finally, some features of the iris-on-fhir application are shown in separted articles. You can check out the full code at the application’s github repository.

I believe most of you have encounted this problem: a healthconnect/ensemble user get a slow response and ask measurement on how long it takes ensmeble to process this request, the ensemble 'activity data' gives no clue of the delay.

The reason is HealthConnect message measurement was based on ensemble message, which can’t give a correct answer on when ensmeble recevie the request and what time it send back response. when there is delay on inbound/outbound adpter, or csp gateway, there is no way to find out the delay from "activity data" . 

I am asked by a customer how to deal with this problem.

I am pleased to announce the availability of InterSystems Container Registry. This provides a new distribution channel for customers to access container-based releases and previews. All Community Edition images are available in a public repository with no login required. All full released images (IRIS, IRIS for Health, Health Connect, System Alerting and Monitoring, InterSystems Cloud Manager) and utility images (such as arbiter, Web Gateway, and PasswordHash) require a login token, generated from your WRC account credentials.

Preview releases are now available for the 2021.1 version of InterSystems IRIS, IRIS for Health and HealthShare Health Connect.

As this is a preview release, we are eager to learn from your experiences with this new release ahead of its General Availability release next month. Please share your feedback through the Developer Community so we can build a better product together.

InterSystems IRIS Data Platform 2021.1 is an extended maintenance (EM) release. Many important new capabilities and enhancements have been added in continuous delivery (CD) releases since 2020.1, the previous EM release.

Hi, I am loading zpm for the first time. I downloaded the %ZPM.Installer xml file and then tried to import it trough the Cache Studio. It threw up 4 errors Compilation started on 04/22/2021 23:41:53 with qualifiers 'cukb /checkuptodate=expandedonly' Compiling class %ZPM.Installer Compiling routine %ZPM.Installer.1 ERROR: %ZPM.Installer.cls(ExtractPackage+2) : MPP5610 : Referenced macro not defined: 'FileTempDir' TEXT: Set pFolder = ##class(%File).NormalizeDirectory($$$FileTempDir) ERROR: %ZPM.Installer.

Upgraded healthshare to health connect. The search box is not selecting the correct url 

i.e. selecting message loads 

http://penn-tietest:57772/csp/sys/EnsPortal.MessageViewer.zen?$NAMESPAC…

instead of this which when go through the menu it loads 

http://penn-tietest:57772/csp/healthshare/tie/EnsPortal.MessageViewer.z…

it actually loads from interopability view messages as 

http://penn-tietest:57772/csp/healthshare/tie/EnsPortal.MessageViewer.z…;

Please can someone advise 

Three new sets of maintenance releases are now available: 

• Caché  2018.1.5, Ensemble 2018.1.5, and HSAP 2018.1.5
• InterSystems IRIS 2019.1.2, IRIS for Health 2019.1.2, and HealthShare Health Connect 2019.1.2
• InterSystems IRIS 2020.1.1, IRIS for Health 2020.1.1, and HealthShare Health Connect 2020.1.1

Integration of hospital information query business solutions using InterSystems IRIS data platform with built-in multiple models

### Summary:

With the gradual improvement of hospital information construction, there are more and more hospital subsystems, and more and more interfaces between systems. At the same time, the interface cost is increasing, and the management work is becoming more and more complex.

Is it possible to move data from i2b2 (https://community.i2b2.org) to IRIS (for example to Health Connect 2019) platform?

Does anybody have such experience?

In 2020 we implemented HealthConnect as our HL7 interface engine.  Having completed this, we are currently evaluating whether it would be beneficial to migrate our managed file transfers from our current MFT software, MOVEit to HealthConnect.  I am interested in hearing from any InterSystems customers who have previously used MOVEit and currently using HealthConnect for file transfer managment.  Any feedback would be appreciated.

Hi fellows,

I'm glad to share with you my new certification:

This message contains six recent HealthShare Advisories, which are available below.

InterSystems has corrected a defect that may cause Windows Telnet processes that are secured using SSL/TLS to hang indefinitely; this may then cause an instance to become unresponsive. This defect is present only on Windows platforms.

This defect affects:

• Caché and Ensemble 2018.1.4
• HealthShare Health Connect (HSAP) 15.032 built on C/E 2018.1.4
• InterSystems IRIS and InterSystems IRIS for Health 2020.3

The problems caused by this defect can occur only when the instance is running Windows Telnet.

we are getting number of msgs from multiple facilities into our HIE solution, now which facilities is sending bad quality data and put some process around it to improve the msg quality

so where to start to generate this report, any guidance would be appreciated. 

My team is working on redesigning an Interoperability solution that currently runs on a HealthShare server that is part of a mirror. Most of the messages are delimited records processed using Complex Record Mapping. We were told to utilize cloud services available in AWS, use containers, autoscaling…

Once we figured out how to use Docker, we imported the Health Connect code in multiple containers with a shared Elastic File System with the directory structure we copied from the existing server.

Hi All,

  I know hundreds of people have done this but I'm looking for some DTL's as a start to do HL7 to FHIR, I appreciate everyone's HL7 is slightly different, but just some starter DTL's would be much appreciated?  Can anyone help?

Hi 

Has anyone used Health Connect/Ensemble to receive results directly from POCT devices (Glucose monitors etc)?

I've been looking for information on the POCT01-A  protocol, and as far as I can tell it is a HL7v3 XML schema, I should be able to get results from these devices, though I expect I need a webserver endpoint. (though I can't find any reference in the Health Connect documentation)

Does anyone have any knowledge of this?

KR

Stephen

EDIT:  from the silence I'm wondering if this in normally handed off to specialist middleware?

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!
