As you all probably know, Health Connect / IRIS for Health natively supports DICOM messaging, and many of you will have used it daily. Well, I recently discovered a rather insidious little issue that our beloved @Alberto Fuentes gave me the solution.

We (I) will call this phenomenon the Creosote effect (those of you who know Monty Python will understand the reference, for the rest you can see the sketch here )

Hi Community,

Preparing for InterSystems Certification examsrequires more than reading documentation. It calls for focused practice aligned with real exam objectives.If you are planning to validate your expertise in HL7, SQL, System Administration, or Development, structured preparation can make a significant difference.

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.

Question Oliver Wilms · Mar 15

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

Announcement KC Lu · Mar 16

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.

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).
