We've recently made available a new version of InterSystems IRIS in the Vector Search Early Access Program, featuring a new Approximate Nearest Neighbor index based upon the Hierarchical Navigable Small World (HNSW) indexing algorithm. This addition allows for highly efficient, approximate nearest-neighbor searches over large vector datasets, dramatically improving query performance and scalability.

Hi all,

I'm wondering if it is possible to call a Business Operation from other Business Operation.

I have a BO that writes logs into a database, using a personal message. I can create a set obj=##class(MyLogs).%New() but the BO has all parameters about connection.

Is it possible?

Best regards.

Managing InterSystems Servers – In-Person  October 28-November 1, 2024

• Configure, manage, plan, and monitor system operations of InterSystems Data Platform technology
• This five-day course teaches system and database administrators how to install, configure and secure InterSystems server software, configure for high availability and disaster recovery, and monitor the system. Students also learn troubleshooting techniques.
• This course is applicable to both InterSystems IRIS and Caché.

There are many applications for working with HL7 V2 messages, but the tools for working with XML in IRIS Management Portal and Cache Studio are limited. While plenty of external utilities and IDEs work with XML messages and even C-CDA documents, there is a compelling case for being able to test directly against the IRIS C-CDA framework. 

Testing within the IRIS environment provides the necessary context: 

• XML parser configuration
• XML namespace context
• Facility and OID setup
• IHE header handling
• The HS.IHE.Util, HS.Util.XSLTTransformer, and %XML.XSLT.

• Building and Managing HL7 Integrations – In Person October 21-25, 2024 9:00am-5:00pm EDT
  
  • Build, configure, and manage HL7® V2 interfaces using InterSystems integration technologies.
  • This healthcare-focused 5-day course teaches implementation partners, integrators and analysts how to rapidly build HL7 integration solutions.
  • Students build a production that processes and routes HL7 messages.
  • Students learn how to work with the pre-built HL7 business services, business processes and business operations to receive and send HL7 messages.

I have been trying to track down an issue we are seeing in our TEST environment with Memory usage.

We have Several BP's for years now that take a HL7 message, parse it apart, and make calls to a Custom EnsLib.SQL.OutboundAdapter to have it execute Insert/Select/Update/Delete stored procedures against a MS SQL Database via JDBC connection. We are using Microsoft's JDBC 12.2 driver to do this.

What we are seeing is that IRIS.WorkQueue globals are being defined for these calls but then the IRIS.WorkQueue is not being cleaned up and taking up large amounts of Memory.

This is for IRIS For Health 2024.2.0

We are migrating away from the .NET Gateway and trying to use the python integration instead.

I followed the instructions to install IRIS

Then I installed python following the IRIS documentation indicating that python should be installed globally.

I set up the PythonRuntimeLibrary and PythonRuntimeLibraryVersion options under System->Configuration->Advanced memory settings and when I run the shell function, I get python:

USER>do ##class(%SYS.Python).Shell()
 
Python 3.12.6 (tags/v3.12.6:a4a2d2b, Sep  6 2024, 20:11:23) [MSC v.

Please allow me to introduce you to a new way of interacting with IPM (InterSystems Package Manager), also known as ZPM,directly from inside Visual Studio Code.

First, install into VS Code the free InterSystems Package Manager extension, published to Marketplace by George James Software. A quick way is to use the search field in VS Code's Extensions view and look for 'ipm zpm' (without the quotes). Alternatively browse to https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=georgejames.iris-pa…

Here's a short video showing the extension in action.

I need to execute code whenever a production component setting is updated, such as when a service port is changed and the `ens.config` table is updated. This code will handle tasks like logging these updates to a custom table for external reporting purposes.

How can I invoke custom code on these updates?

Ideally, I need to monitor all namespaces that are interoperability-enabled. Whenever a production component setting is changed in any namespace, I need to run the code.

If you are using the client-side development paradigm (i.e. editing code in local files that get imported and compiled onto the IRIS server your `objectscript.conn` settings point to) you can now use IPM in VS Code to manage the packages in your IRIS target by launching it from the Explorer view. Just make sure the extension you are using is at least version 1.0.4, then use this button:

Thanks to @Evgeny.Shvarovfor suggesting this enhancement, which is particularly useful when using Docker.

I am trying to track down a problem we saw this morning with our TEST environment. We had a momentary issue where InterSystems HealthShare Health Connect could not connect correctly to LDAP. When we tried to login and could not connect to LDAP, the system would Delete our users.

the Test LDAP function would return a "Can't contact LDAP server". I went through the Certificates, made sure they had the correct permissions and were not expired.

Is it possible to deploy a license server in a cloud and then download licenses from it to the host location at customer's data center?

Tilde(~) is not working while replacing or writing it in hardcoded. Rest every other character is working fine. Has anyone had the same issue earlier? It is not coming in HL7 generating through this code.

<assign property='target.{FT1grp(i).FT1:ProcedureCode.Identifier}' value='..replace(source.superBillDetailBeanDao.GetAt(i).cPTCode,",","~")' action='set'/>

I am trying to use IRIS for Health as a Facade for an external FHIR Server, where IRIS provides the proper authentication. The client authenticates using a bearer token obtained from the IRIS OAuth2 server via a jwt client assertion. The IRIS endpoint, however, returns a 401 as soon as I remove the Unauthenticated access

Is there w way to make this work through configuration?

Hi folks!

Examining FHIR profile validation with InterSystems FHIR server. FHIR profiles is a very useful feature of FHIR standard that helps an organization or solution to establish constraints to a very disperse FHIR standards that are relevant to a particular business solution. Learn more on FHIR profiles.

I created a very simple FHIR profile with the following JSON:

{

"resourceType""StructureDefinition"

As you can see in "differential" section it makes mandatory fields of id, name and gender.

Hello, i need to make property that is of type List of Lists of String (see "body_text" in JSON)

How can i make it? 

Thanks

{
  "type": "BODY",
  "text": "<TEXT>",
  
  # Required if <TEXT> string contains variables
  "example": {
    "body_text": [
      [
        <BODY_TEXT>
      ]
    ]
  }
}

Anakin Skywalker challenged the high ground and has been terribly injured on Mustafar.  

I am still trying to understand and come up with a use case to use FHIR as an enhancement to our existing HL7 messages. Does anyone have an example of taking a FHIR response and transforming it into a SDA?

How does the workflow go? Does it go through 1 BP? 

Thanks

Scott

I have a theory that I could use an HL7 Data Transformer in a rule without specifying a specific DocType. I want to use the same DTL for a variety of different DocTypes. Here is my very simplistic DTL so far:

ClassExtendsParameter1

For the more visual people:

But when I test this with any HL7 message I get the error

ERROR <Ens>ErrGeneral: Cannot recognize path before DocType is set

Is there not a way to write a DTL for any HL7 message without specifying the DocType? And also, am I referencing the field correctly with target.{MSH-4}

IRIS Health Monitor is part of System Monitor (see here).
The intention is to further process the captured sensor reading in order to identify the "health" of a system by checking the sensor reading values against pre-defined Base, Min and Max absolute values, and alert accordingly. Additionally,  instead of absolute values, you can create Charts (which can be different for different periods of a day), that contain a learned minimum and maximum value after a time spent by the system (at least 24 hours) analysing sensor readings.

The sensor readings included in Health Monitor are defined here.

Hello Community,

In this article, I will outline and illustrate the process of implementing ObjectScript within embedded Python. This discussion will also reference other articles related to embedded Python, as well as address questions that have been beneficial to my learning journey.

As you may know, the integration of Python features within IRIS has been possible for quite some time. This article will focus on how to seamlessly incorporate ObjectScript with embedded Python.

Essentially, embedded Python serves as an extension that allows for independent writing and execution.

Does IRIS have system like Oracle GoldenGate, which can generate Change Data Capture as a stream?

Our customer wants mirroring even on same network and it just increases the cost for us without helping much.
Are there better solution to avoid fake impression of HA?

I am trying to login to InterSystems image repository but it is not recognizing following credentials from ubuntu.

docker login  https://containers.intersystems.com -u <username> -p <password>
WARNING! Using --password via the CLI is insecure. Use --password-stdin.
Error response from daemon: Get "https://containers.intersystems.com/v2/": unknown: Bad credentials

The same credentials works via website.

Is it possible to transform selected fields from HL7 message to | separated string or stream that can be inserted to a DB using Record Map?
