This article will describe processes for running unit tests via the ObjectScript Package Manager (see https://openexchange.intersystems.com/package/ObjectScript-Package-Manager-2), including test coverage measurement (via https://openexchange.intersystems.com/package/Test-Coverage-Tool).
IRIS and Ensemble are designed to act as an ESB/EAI. This mean they are build to process lots of small messages.
But some times, in real life we have to use them as ETL. The down side is not that they can't do so, but it can take a long time to process millions of row at once.
To improve performance, I have created a new SQLOutboundAdaptor who only works with JDBC.
Extend EnsLib.SQL.OutboundAdapter to add batch batch and fetch support on JDBC connection.
This is a coding example working on Caché 2018.1.3 and IRIS 2020.2 It will not be kept in sync with new versions It is also NOT serviced by InterSystems Support !
IRIS 2020.1 brought us a new feature: %Net.WebSocket.Client
As a continuation of my series of WS Clients I just couldn't resist trying it.
Well, this is the result and it was rather simple in the end.
After I succeeded in my personal fight against Windows Firewall ;-)

VSCode-ObjectScript is an extension for VSCode which allows you to develop InterSystems based applications on ObjectScript using the modern code editor developed by Microsoft. Choice #1 editor amongst all developers worldwide by Stackoverflow survey 2019.
Some short notes about how to install and configure it you can find here.
If you need any help with a migration process of your development team to VSCode, please contact us by info@caretdev.com.
SQLBuilder is a flexible and powerful SQL query string builder for InterSystems IRIS,
With SQLBuilder you have nice and clean object oriented methods, instead of having to use concatenation and substituition to generate dynamic queries.
Starting in March 2020, Microsoft plans to release a series of security updates that will cause Windows Active Directory (AD) servers to reject unencrypted simple binds.
Hi-
I am trying to create a simple example of allowing binary (tiff) files to be selected and uploaded asynchronously to an IRIS for Health back-end. I have managed to write the HTML and Javascript which works great with regular text / ascii files, but fails with binary files.
When I upload a binary file (tiff) image I get garbage like this on the database server
InterSystems has corrected two defects that, in rare circumstances, can result in data integrity corruption after running global compaction, database compaction, or database defragmentation. InterSystems recommends avoiding these utilities until after applying the corrections listed below.

⏯ Build HL7 Interfaces in a Flash
Yet another basic setup of ENSDEMO content into InterSystems IRIS for Health.
Version: store/intersystems/irishealth-community:2019.4.0.383.0
Make sure you have Docker up and running before starting.
Clone the repository to your desired directory
git clone https://github.com/OneLastTry/irishealth-ensdemo.git
Once the repository is cloned, execute:
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 Everyone,
I've been working on deploying an IRIS for Health environment in EKS. There is a video session in the InterSystems learning portal about this feature but I have not succeeded in finding the proper documentation and resources to use this in my Kubernetes cluster.
Has this been deprecated/discontinued? Any idea where can I find the resources? Should I stick to StatefulSets instead of using the IrisCluster resource type provided by this operator?
Loading your IRIS Data to your Google Cloud Big Query Data Warehouse and keeping it current can be a hassle with bulky Commercial Third Party Off The Shelf ETL platforms, but made dead simple using the iris2bq utility.
Let's say IRIS is contributing to workload for a Hospital system, routing DICOM images, ingesting HL7 messages, posting FHIR resources, or pushing CCDA's to next provider in a transition of care. Natively, IRIS persists these objects in various stages of the pipeline via the nature of the business processes and anything you included along the way. Lets send that up to Google Big Query to augment and compliment the rest of our Data Warehouse data and ETL (Extract Transform Load) or ELT (Extract Load Transform) to our hearts desire.
A reference architecture diagram may be worth a thousand words, but 3 bullet points may work out a little bit better:
.avro to keep the schema along the data: this will avoid to specify/create the BigQuery table schema beforehands..avro into the respective BigQuery tables you specify.
While I can query the HL7 message class EnsLib.HL7.Message (EnsLib_HL7.Message for SQL) to my heart's content in the SQL Shell or the Management Portal's SQL page, I can't seem to SELECT anything other than ID/%Id from an ADO/ODBC client. Properties such as TimeCreated, Name, MessageTypeCategory, etc. all seem to prevent the query from ever completing EXCEPT when I provide the ID as part of the WHERE criteria.
This works fine in the Management Portal and Shell:
InterSystems and Intel recently conducted a series of benchmarks combining InterSystems IRIS with 2nd Generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processors, also known as “Cascade Lake”, and Intel® Optane™ DC Persistent Memory (DCPMM). The goals of these benchmarks are to demonstrate the performance and scalability capabilities of InterSystems IRIS with Intel’s latest server technologies in various workload settings and server configurations. Along with various benchmark results, three different use-cases of Intel DCPMM with InterSystems IRIS are provided in this report.
Hi,
I created a BS with a SQL Inbound Adapter.
Query = "SELECT rowid, fname ,lname,datesent
FROM labs
WHERE datesent IS NOT NULL"
DeleteQuery = " update labs set datesent = Getdate() where rowid = ?"
KeyFieldName = "rowid"
i am getting the following errors.
"NOT assuming network disconnect error based on: Gateway failed: DropStatement."
"Skipping previously errored row '235'"
Hi,
I have a production with a BS calling a BP calling another BP and so on and finally a BO. All calls are made using SendRequestSync.
The initial request is passed by value. The response is passed by ref and I allocate memory for it in the BO, hoping that it will go back to the initial caller in the BS, but it does not.
It looks like the following:
Dear Community,
In advance of the upcoming release of InterSystems IRIS 2020.1 and InterSystems IRIS for Health 2020.1, we're pleased to invite you to the “Office Hours: InterSystems IRIS 2020.1 Preview” webinars. These Q&A sessions will provide a forum for you to ask questions and learn about the latest product features in the upcoming releases.
The webinar will feature members of InterSystems product management team who will answer questions and provide additional information about the new features and enhancements.
We will be hosting two sessions on Thursday, February 20, 2020. Reserve your spot by clicking one of the buttons below for the appropriate time slot.
Hello,
I've always worked with typical web applications (a bunch of code files that sit in a server that connects to an RDS). Now our team is responsible for different IRIS for Health environments. We are currently working to set up the local dev environment and this is the current scenario:
* IRIS for Health local development server is running in a container
* Developers are using VSCode with the objectScript plugin
* GitHub as a version control system for the code and configuration.
I'm always on the lookout for tools that make the development and testing of my interfaces more efficient. A couple of years ago I came across HL7 Spy, from Inner Harbour Software. It quickly became my go-to tool for running message comparison reports for interface engine migrations, message statistics gathering, and troubleshooting message receipt and delivery. It also offered enhanced functionality for things like fetching messages via sftp that other tools don't provide.
I've recently been working with HL7 Spy's author, Jon Reis, to enable support for fetching messages directly from the Ensemble message store. Its SQL Loader feature now has native Caché/IRIS support, and I've contributed a small server-side class to support the extraction of messages using it.
Hi Developers!
Another way to start using InterSystems ObjectScript Package Manager is to use prebuilt container images of InterSystems IRIS Community Edition and InterSystems IRIS for Health Community Edition.
We deploy this IRIS images on DockerHub and you can run it with the following command:
docker run --rm -p 52773:52773 --init --name my-iris -d intersystemsdc/iris-community:2019.4.0.383.0-zpm
Launch a terminal with:
docker exec -it my-iris iris session IRIS
And install zpm-module as:
USER>zpm zpm: USER>install objectscript-math [objectscript-math] Reload START [objectscript-math] Reload SUCCESS [objectscript-math] Module object refreshed. [objectscript-math] Validate START [objectscript-math] Validate SUCCESS [objectscript-math] Compile START [objectscript-math] Compile SUCCESS [objectscript-math] Activate START [objectscript-math] Configure START [objectscript-math] Configure SUCCESS [objectscript-math] Activate SUCCESS zpm: USER>
And use same commands for InterSystems IRIS for Health using the tag: intersystemsdc/irishealth-community:2019.4.0.383.0-zpm
The images are being published on IRIS Community Edition and IRIS Community Edition for Health repositories of Docker Hub.
We will update tags with every new release of IRIS and ZPM.
Happy coding!
