#InterSystems Business Solutions and Architectures

Hi guys, I am not able to load the file codes on the terminology registry, do you know how the structure should look like when uploading terminology codes file under Registry namespace

Below is the error I am getting the below error

Myself and the other Technology Architects often have to explain to customers and vendors Caché IO requirements and the way that Caché applications will use storage systems. The following tables are useful when explaining typical Caché IO profile and requirements for a transactional database application with customers and vendors.  The original tables were created by Mark Bolinsky.

In future posts I will be discussing more about storage IO so am also posting these tables now as a reference for those articles.

This post provides guidelines for configuration, system sizing and capacity planning when deploying IRIS and IRIS on a VMware ESXi. This post is based on and replaces the earlier IRIS-era guidance and reflects current VMware and InterSystems recommendations.

Last update Jan 2026. These guidelines are a best effort, remember requirements and capabilities of VMware and IRIS can change.

I jump right in with recommendations assuming you already have an understanding of VMware vSphere virtualization platform.

Hi Folks,

I created a persistent class as below 

Class myclass.DataBase Extends %Persistent
{

Property ID As %String;

Property Skill As list Of myclass.SerialTablelist;
}

and Created another Serial class as 

Class myclass.SerialTablelist Extends %SerialObject
{

Property PSkill As %String;

Property OSkill As %String;
}

Now I will save the id as below

do rs.Prepare("Insert into myclass.DataBase(ID)VALUES(?)")
do rs.Execute(ID)

I am facing issue with the AS LIST OF 

Could any one guide me how to save the Skill (PSkill ,OSkill ) using resultset (I am able to )

For those that, at some point, need to test what means that of ECP for horizontal escalability (computing power and/or users and processes concurrency), but they're lazy o have no much time to build the environment, configure the server nodes, etc..., I've just published in Open Exchange the app/sample OPNEx-ECP Deployment .

InterSystems IRIS is a Data Platform with a lot of features. These features and relevant topics about IRIS is represented in the periodic table elements.

The TOGAF is the The Open Group Architecture Framework. It provides an approach for planning, design, implement, deploy and govern your EA (Enterprise Architecture) projects.

The TOGAF has a concept called Building Block. It is any element that can be used, reused a executed to deliver value and new functions to the business.

In the picture above, I present to you the main IRIS building blocks to create fantastic apps.

To learn more about TOGAF and building blocks, see https://www.opengroup.org/togaf.

The Zachman Framework™ is an ontology - a theory of the existence of a structured set of essential components of an object for which explicit expressions is necessary and perhaps even mandatory for creating, operating, and changing the object (the object being an Enterprise, a department, a value chain, a “sliver,” a solution, a project, an airplane, a building, a product, a profession or whatever or whatever).

This post provides useful links and an overview of best practice configuration for low latency storage IO by creating LVM Physical Extent (PE) stripes for database disks on InterSystems Data Platforms; InterSystems IRIS, Caché, and Ensemble.

Consistent low latency storage is key to getting the best database application performance. For applications running on Linux, Logical Volume Manager (LVM) is often used for database disks, for example, because of the ability to grow volumes and filesystems or create snapshots for online backups.

I have attached a document that describes the product I have developed called NiPaRobotica Pharmacy. This is an interface I developed that accepts Pharmacy Dispense Requests and converts the line items on the order into dispense dialogues which it sends to pharmacy robots. I deployed the interface into 3 Hospital pharmacies two of which had 6 robots that were arranged in such a way that the dispense chutes channelled medications to desks by the pharmacists sitting in windows serving 1200 patients a day. The robots cut the average waiting time from 2 hours down to one hour.

Hi developers!

Do you know a CRM that is built with InterSystems IRIS or Caché or Ensemble on a backend?

Hey Developers,

We are excited to announce the launch of the InterSystems Partner Directory!

This is the place to go to find commercial services and solutions built on InterSystems products.

Why InterSystems Partner Directory?

I'm glad to announce we have recently released our second Starter Pack. This one is for the Mining Industry, and the first was for Industrial IoT (OEE).

But what does it exactly mean?

InterSystems IRIS Starter Packs (thanks to Joe Lichtenberg that helped with this text)

InterSystems IRIS Starter Packs are codebases built by an InterSystems partner using InterSystems IRIS Data Platform that shortens the time to develop a complete application that addresses a specific industry or technology challenge. It is not a completed application.

It's a challenge when you need, as a software architect, design a corporate architecture to meet the current business requirements, you need achieve level 5. With InterSystems IRIS.
it's possible. With 1 product you get SQL + NoSQL + ESB + BI + Open Analytics + Real time virtual cubes + NLP + AutoML + ML (with Python) and Advanced cloud + Sharding support.

With Oracle, for example, you need Oracle DB + Oracle NoSQL + Oracle BI + Oracle SOA Suite + Some Oracle add-ons like Oracle R, Partitioning and RAC and some Oracle cloud products to NLP and AI features. For IBM we have a similar scenario.

What is Data Fabric?

“It is a set of hardware infrastructure, software, tools and resources to implement, administer, manage and execute data operations in the company, including, acquisition, transformation, storage, distribution, integration, replication, availability, security, protection , disaster recovery, presentation, analysis, preservation, retention, backup, recovery, archiving, recall, deletion, monitoring and capacity planning, across all data storage platforms and enabling application use to meet the company's data needs company".

If you need write your organization Data Architecture and map to the InterSystems IRIS, consider following Data Architecture Diagram and references to the intersystems iris documentation, see:

Introduction

InterSystems has recently completed a performance and scalability benchmark of IRIS for Health 2020.1, focusing on HL7 version 2 interoperability. This article describes the observed throughput for various workloads, and also provides general configuration and sizing guidelines for systems where IRIS for Health is used as an interoperability engine for HL7v2 messaging.

Hi 

we are implementing HIE and wan to get expert opinion on facility registry setup. Below are some example and which method we should adapt.

Hi Developers!

Thank you for using ZPM Package Manager and contributing more and more useful packages to the public registry!

But as you already aware ZPM packages are always deployed with source code.

Do you think we need to add the option to deploy without source code - e.g. if you want to deploy a commercial package?

Will you develop commercial modules if there will be an option and deploy it with ZPM?

How do you deploy commercial applications today?

Organizations around the world lose an estimated five percent of their annual revenues to fraud, according to a survey of Certified Fraud Examiners (CFEs) who investigated cases between January 2010 and December 2011. Applied to the estimated 2011 Gross World Product, this figure translates to a potential total fraud loss of more than $3.5 trillion (source: https://www.acfe.com/press-release.aspx?id=4294973129).

Good day, developers!

Hi community,

When InterSystems Health stack are working toghether the hospital ecosystem get this:

Hi community, I used website-analyzer - an app that uses InterSystems NLP and Crawler4J to extract all website content and do NLP on it. I limited to 200 pages and discovered this:

Top 10 Concepts - business and content topics in the InterSystems site:

Other frequency concepts, see the focus in the iris speed, scale and data value:

Top 10 Concept Dominance - business relations in the InterSystems site.

I have already asked a question about migrating an Oracle database to Caché, and I was promptly answered. Now, I have one more question, however it is more conceptual. In general, any tool defends its benefits, and looking at Caché's, among many, there is a lot of talk about speed. The question is, if I already have a database, and at the moment, its performance is not a problem, I would like to know what else could influence the change of this database? Remembering that it is functional and without any apparent problem.

IRIS is an excellent option for machine learning projects with massive data operation scenarios, because the following reasons:

1. Supports the use of shards to scale the data repository, just like MongoDB.
2. Supports the creation of analytical cubes, this in association with sharding allows to have volume with performance.
3. Supports collecting data on a scheduled basis or in real time with a variety of data adapter options.
4. It allows to automate the entire deduplication process using logic in Python or ObjectScript.
5.

The InterSystems IRIS has an integration engine with these core elements:

1. Adapters: are inbound (data/message input/request) and outbound (data/message output/response)  integration logic specialized in the type of data or message protocol (file, http, etc.). They are the interface to allows connect with source or target data repositories or systems.

2. DTL: is a component to mapping and transform data between two components in the flow orchestration.

3. BPL: is a component executing BPEL language to execute integration/orchestration flow.

4. Native API: is possible integrate with Java, .

Some clients ask me about migrate from Cache to IRIS. Why migrate to IRIS? Cache is excellent, stable, has good performance. These clients are right, but in the last years, the digital transformation imposed more complete solutions for the new requirements and InterSystems was a visionary to perceive it and launch IRIS.
It is a data platform ready to this digital transformation challenge. To show this, I created a Value Canvas.

Value canvas are a perfect tool to show in a few minutes the value of the change.
