Hi,
I'm pretty sure I'm not the first one to encounter this, so please share your solution
I'm trying to load a package with 2 dependencies, one of them has 5 dependencies..
is there a better tool / script / wizard for that?

The problem

How many times have we migrated an IRIS Instance to another machine, maybe even another version, and after a few days realized we forgot that one SSL Configuration critical for a Business Operations to work? Or maybe a credential, or a lonely class in a package by itself?

The solution

The simple solution is to make a checklist¹. A checklist of the entities we have to move. But simple checklists on Word documents are often forgotten, or just ignored.

I have a json object coming in on a service with a field that has "NaN" as its value.

"ReferralInOutOfNetworkCd": "NaN",

In my DTL, I do a straight copy. yet what goes outbound is NaN, without being wrapped in double quotes

"consulting_provider_network_ordering_rd":NaN,

Has anyone experience this?  If so, did you find a way to fix or work around it?

Hello Community!

I created a new repo called ipm-module-budget from https://github.com/intersystems-community/intersystems-iris-dev-template template.

I cloned the repo to an EC2 instance in AWS. When I try to build image, I see this error:

#8 22.09 [IRISAPP|ipm-module-budget] Reload START (/home/irisowner/dev/)Segmentation fault (core dumped) #8 ERROR: process "/bin/sh -c pip3 install -r requirements.txt && iris start IRIS && \tiris session IRIS < iris.scri pt && iris stop IRIS quietly" did not complete successfully: exit code: 139

Issue

In the versions specified above, an instance may fail to start or may hang during operation if the database cache is greater than or equal to 2,097,152 MB (2 TB).

Hi Community,

We're super excited to share that we’ve just launched a new free, interactive tutorial designed especially for those who are new to InterSystems IRIS and looking for a clear, practical introduction to its core concepts.

🧑‍🏫 Data Models of InterSystems IRIS 🧑‍💻

Since our previous announcement, we have introduced several incremental improvements to the client‑side editing experience in VS Code. These updates focus on preserving developer‑authored formatting when synchronizing with the server.

What Changed

Client‑side *.cls files previously lost certain formatting details during compilation, including keyword casing (e.g., classmethod → ClassMethod), normalization of blank lines between class members, and removal of line breaks within parameter lists.

There are lessons we learned from developing and maintaining code for interoperability components within a healthcare institutional environment.

The plane is already flying

Be prepared to rebuild, improve, extend, and fix the plane mid-flight.
 

Maintenance windows for hospital systems are often very limited, with some required to be operational 24/7. While the critical health systems such as imaging modalities or registration kiosks — or at least their critical functions — must operate autonomously, efficiency and usability may be compromised when interoperability components malfunction.

Hi community,

I've been working on a side project that I'd love to get some eyes on: a ground-up rebuild of the classic IRIS Production Monitor using a modern web stack. The existing ZEN/CSP-based portal does the job, but I wanted to explore what a contemporary, real-time version of it could look like.

What it is

A standalone Angular web application that connects to any Interoperability-enabled IRIS namespace and gives you a live view of your production — services, processes, operations, queues, event log, and message traffic — all in one screen.

As part of the new Interoperability UI wave (see what was new in 2025.1, and 2025.3 by @Aya Heshmat), v2026.1 which is available already as a Developer Preview, and this could be a reason for you to give it a ride - will be shipping the new UI for the Message viewing and searching, including Visual Trace (and other UI goodies).

He's a quick teaser:

I may have mentioned this before: I believe the Visual Traces, these sequence diagrams with full content of each step, are a fantastic feature of the IRIS Data platform! Detailed information about how the API works internally, as a visual trace, can be very useful for projects on the IRIS platform. Of course, this applies when we are not developing a high-load solution, in which case we simply don't have time for saving/reading messages. For all other cases, welcome to this tutorial!

We are trying to track down significant growth within our Namespaces, one big culprit is Ens.AppData (EnsLib.SQL.Snapshot). 

Within many of our BPL's we use EnsLib.SQL.Snapshot to return Results from External SQL Stored Procedures or Query's. The same EnsLib.SQL.Snapshot context variable is used for many of these calls within a BPL. 

Is there something we should be doing at the end of the BPL to ensure that EnsLib.SQL.Snapshot gets cleaned up and purged from Ens.AppData?

How can I create a Task that tells a Ens.BusinessService to execute its SQL query using the EnsLib.SQL.InboundAdapter?

So far I have come up with

Class OSU.Workday.TerminationsTask Extends %SYS.Task.Definition
{

Parameter TaskName As STRING = "OSU - Workday Termination Update";

Method OnTask() As %Status
{
    try{
        // Call BusinessService
        set tSC = ##class(Ens.Director).CreateBusinessService("OSU.DataSource.Workday.TermService",.tService)

        if $IsObject(tService){
            set inputMessage = ##class(Ens.StringContainer).

Background

Emergency Medical Services (EMS) teams often arrive at the emergency department with patients whose demographics are incomplete or unknown—no medical record number (MRN), no confirmed name, and sometimes no date of birth. Yet EMS transportation notes still need to land in the correct chart.

To support safe and reliable documentation, EMS agencies, third-party integration services, and hospital integration teams build secure interfaces that exchange identifiers and clinical messages.

Hello everyone,

I am André from MedVertical. We are exploring InterSystems-native ways to operationalize continuous FHIR conformance: repeatable regression runs, baseline/delta comparisons, and evidence-style reporting to detect drift after releases and IG changes.

In many FHIR implementations, validation is done “point-in-time” in pre-prod, but conformance degrades in production due to IG/profile updates, terminology changes, mapping evolution, upstream releases, and configuration drift.

IPM version 0.10.6 was released on February 24th, 2026. This version is mostly bug fixes, but does add the -export-python-deps flag to the package and publish  commands to include Python dependencies with the IPM module itself. As usual, you can check it out on the GitHub page or through the Community Registry. 

Here's the complete changelog:

Added

• #1024: Added flag -export-python-deps to publish command

Fixed

• #996: Ensure COS commands execute in exec under a dedicated, isolated context
• #1002: When listing configured repositories, only show the TokenAuthMethod when a token is defined.

Hi, Community!

Working with large volumes of data? See how streams can help:

Storing Large Amounts of Data with Streams in ObjectScript 

Configuration differences between environments are not always mistakes, but they should always be intentional and governed. 

We're excited to announce that version 3.6 of JediSoft IRISsync® is now available, bringing enhancements designed to give teams more control and visibility when managing configuration settings across multiple IRIS instances.

What's new in IRISsync 3.6: 

• Accepted differences - Mark intentional configuration differences to provide further clarity in comparison results.

Hi 

Is there a sample that I can use to create a simple alert code, and do I need to set up or pay a service provider? 

Thanks

The facial recognition has become the most popular method for validating people's identities, thus enabling access to systems, confirmation of personal and documentary data, and approval of actions and documents.
The challenges are related to performance when the database is very large, accuracy, and especially the privacy of biometric facial data. For these challenges, nothing is better than using InterSystems Vector Search, as it allows:
