In healthcare, interoperability is the ability of different information technology systems and software applications to communicate, exchange data, and use the information that has been exchanged.
The ability to resend messages easily has always been a strong feature of our Interoperability capabilities.
With v2024.3 coming out soon (available already now as Developer Preview) out already we've made this even easier!
This demo has an interoperability production with 16 items. 
The first part of this demonstration consists of sending an HL7 SIU file which will be transmitted to the 2 other HL7 flows (HTTP and TCP), and transformed and transmitted to the Kafka server. HTTP and TCP flows will transform HL7 messages in the same way before sending them to Kafka as well.
When building a bundle from legacy data, I (and others) wanted to be able to control whether or not the resources were generated with a FHIR Request Method of PUT instead of the hard coded POST. I have extended the two classes responsible for transforming SDA to FHIR in an Interoperability Production to accomodate a setting that lets the user control the Request Method.
First is the Busines Process class. This includes a new parameter exposed to the "Settings" tab in Interoperability called FHIRRequestMethod.
Is there a way to create and establish DICOM Association with Extended Negotiation?
I have implemented DICOM Query/Retrieve C-FIND, using EnsLib.DICOM.Operation.TCP and EnsLib.DICOM.Process base classes. My application, acting as an SCU, needs to query by Study Date-Time (combined date-time matching) range with timezone query adjustment. For this, I need to use Extended Negotiation.
I've checked the IRIS Manual - Creating DICOM Associations section but there is no mention of this.
Hello,
Please, we would need your help 🙂:
In a development environment, we have added quite a few presentation contexts to the DICOM configurations (the associations). We would need to find a way to export them from this environment to make it easier for us to import them in PRO (and avoid doing it by hand one by one).
We know that there is this method, the ImportAssociation(), that given a file, and the names of the local AET and the remote AET, creates it automatically:

Hi Community, OpenAPI-Client Gen has just released, this is an application to create an IRIS Interoperability Production client from Swagger 2.0 specification. Instead of the existing tool ^%REST that creates a server-side REST application, OpenAPI-Client Gen creates a complete REST Interoperability Production client template.
Install by ZPM:
zpm "install openapi-client-gen"
How to generate production from Swagger document? It's very simple.
Open a terminal and execute:
Set sc = ##class(dc.openapi.client.Spec).generateApp(<applicationName>, <Your Swagger 2.
This is a template for a FastApi application that can be deployed in IRIS as an native Web Application.
git clone
cd iris-fastapi-template
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
docker-compose up
The base URL is http://localhost:53795/fastapi/.
/iris - Returns a JSON object with the top 10 classes present in the IRISAPP namespace./interop - A ping endpoint to test the interoperability framework of IRIS.Production Decomposition is a new configuration option added to the CCR Client Tools that instead of source controlling the Production class as a single item, considers it a composition of configuration items. This allows different users to edit these distinct items within a Production at the same time Historically, this has been a pain point with source controlling Productions as any work involving the Production class required a check out that prevented other users from making edits.
I was working on a DTL but kept getting ERROR #5002... MAXSTRING errors. The problem was that most of the DTL GUI action steps only support the string data type when working with the segments. A %String has a limit of 3,641,144 characters and my OBX5.1 was 5,242,952 characters long as the example provided. Of course PACS admin stated ultra high quality up to and including 4K resolution files were needed, so we could not get the vendor to compress or reformat these files to compressed jpg or something similar.

Initially this vendor sends a 2.3 ORU^R01 and our EHR (Epic) is expecting a
In the past, I've created custom SQL operations, but now I had something trivial to do, so I decided to take EnsLib.SQL.Operation.GenericOperation out for a spin. There's no example in the docs, so it was a little tricky. Here's what I ended up doing:
In my external database, I have 'mytable' with two fields 'id1' and 'id2'. Here are the pertinent Business Operation settings:
SQL: select id2 from mytable where id1 = ?
Input Parameters: [1] *id1
RequestClass: Ens.
Hi,
I'm currently working on an IHE implementation, and we've hit some issues around categorising inbound CCD results (i.e. mapping lab and rad results to their relevant SDA types).
I know that this is handled by the \CSP\xslt\SDA3\CDA-Support-Files\Import\Section-Modules\DiagnosticResults.xsl out of the box which can be overridden to use different logic, but I was wondering whether there's a standard/best practice approach for handling different sets of logic depending on the supplier of the CCD?
Hi Team, we are going to deliver a speech on a developer forum where most developers hv not used our tech before but using other database and integration technologies , Pls give us some key points on why they should adopt us and the benefits you can get, especially if you change your tech stack from others to IRIS. Thanks a lot!
In this post, we'll discuss our project that leverages Pulumi and Docker Compose to automate the deployment of InterSystems WSGI applications on AWS. The focus is on simplicity and efficiency, using pre-built infrastructure templates for provisioning and scaling AWS resources.
This repository automates the deployment of a WSGI-based application using AWS infrastructure templates and Pulumi’s Python SDK. The infrastructure is provisioned with Pulumi's declarative approach, while Docker Compose handles application orchestration.
Is there a difference in outcome between the two screengrabs below?
In both cases, when certain conditions are met, a transformation is called and the output sent on to two targets. In the first case we surmise the transformation is called twice, and the output of the first run sent to the first target, the output of the second run to the second target. In the second case we surmise the transformation is called once, and the output duplicated and sent to the two targets.
Hello, I want to create PDF from HTML source. I found pandoc. I installed pandoc on IRIS container image. I created Interoperability production. I have setup REST service to receive HTML file in request body. I call pandoc command pandoc -o output.pdf input.html from a BPL process. I copy output.pdf file stream into response body. I save the response at the source. I get a file named output.pdf but it does not load in Acrobat. I suspect I am doing something wrong with headers (accept-encoding?) or maybe do I need to base64 encode the pdf file to transfer it via REST?
Hello all,
On one of my team's systems, we utilize a business operation with the EnsLib.SQL.OutboundAdapter to make SQL queries to another IRIS system using JDBC. To authenticate the connection, we utilize a user account on the target system.
We recently had a failure where this user account expired due to inactivity, causing all queries to error until the account was reactivated on the target system.
Samba is the standard for file services interoperability across Linux, Unix, DOS, Windows, OS/2 and other OS. Since 1992, Samba has provided secure, stable and fast file services for all clients (OS and programs) using the SMB/CIFS protocol. Network administrators have used SAMBA to create shared network folders to allow company employees to create, edit and view corporate files as if they were on their computers locally, when these files are physically located on a network file server. It is possible to create a network folder in Linux and see it as a shared folder in Windows, for example.
I have challenged to create a bot application using Azure Bot that can retrieve and post data to IRIS for Health.
A patient's data has already been registered in the FHIR repository of IRIS for Health.
The patient's MRN is 1001. His name is Taro Yamada. (in Japanese :山田 太郎)
This bot can post new pulse oximeter readings as an observation resource linked to the patient.
I received some really excellent feedback from a community member on my submission to the Python 2024 contest. I hope its okay if I repost it here:
you build a container more than 5 times the size of pure IRIS
and this takes time
container start is also slow but completes
backend is accessible as described
a production is hanging around
frontend reacts
I fail to understand what is intended to show
the explanation is meant for experts other than me
The submission is here: https://openexchange.intersystems.
When registering the components: I used this command:
"Utils.migrate("/external/src/CoreModel/Python/settings.py)" ;
The error appears: "An error has occurred: iris.cls: error finding class",
I changed with these two lines:
result = subprocess.run(["iop", "-m", "/external/src/CoreModel/Python/settings.py"], stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE, check=True)
subprocess.run(["iop", "-m", "/external/src/CoreModel/Python/settings.py"], stdout=subprocess.DEVNULL, stderr=subprocess.
Up until recently, I have been toying around with REST/FHIR capabilities but only internally. Now I have a request to make REST API calls outside of our Network.
I am using an RSA 4096 key, because Microsoft Active Directory Services which generates the signed certificate could not handle the Elliptical Key (ECC) when I put the request in.
Welcome to the next chapter of my CI/CD series, where we discuss possible approaches toward software development with InterSystems technologies and GitLab. Today, we continue talking about Interoperability, specifically monitoring your Interoperability deployments. If you haven't yet, set up Alerting for all your Interoperability productions to get alerts about errors and production state in general.
Inactivity Timeout is a setting common to all Interoperability Business Hosts. A business host has an Inactive status after it has not received any messages within the number of seconds specified by the Inactivity Timeout field. The production Monitor Service periodically reviews the status of business services and business operations within the production and marks the item as Inactive if it has not done anything within the Inactivity Timeout period.
The default value is 0 (zero). If this setting is 0, the business host will never be marked Inactive, no matter how long it stands idle.
If you're building solutions on IRIS and want to use Git, that's great! Just use VSCode with a local git repo and push your changes out to the server - it's that easy.
But what if:
From time to time we develop an Ensemble Production with simple SQL Inbound data from external databases, we need to develop a few new classes. There are at least:
Let's say, if these codes can be generated automatically in order to make the entire development more "low

Anyone here know if the Implementation Partner program is still open, and if so, is there anyone we can contact to get more details? I've tried reaching out via the form on the website, I've called and left a message, and then I called and talked to someone a few weeks ago who said they would "forward my info over", but we still haven't heard back from anyone. We just want to get more info on what it entails, but can't seem to get in touch with anybody to talk about it.
New in version 2023.3 (of InterSystems IRIS for Health) is a capability to perform FHIR profile-based validation.
(*)
In this article I'll provide a basic overview of this capability.
If FHIR is important to you, you should definitely try out this new feature, so read on.

Current triage systems often rely on the experience of admitting physicians. This can lead to delays in care for some patients, especially when faced with inexperienced residents or non-critical symptoms. Additionally, it can result in unnecessary hospital admissions, straining resources and increasing healthcare costs.
We focused our project on pregnant women and conducted a survey with friends of ours who work at a large hospital in São Paulo, Brazil, specifically in the area of monitoring and caring for pregnant women.
