#InterSystems IRIS

Hi all,

I’m working on a data transformation in IRIS where I need to calculate the difference in hours between two timestamps stored as %TimeStamp.

Example:

Set startTime = "2024-07-12 08:30:00"
Set endTime = "2024-07-12 15:15:00"

I’d like to calculate the number of hours (with decimals, like 6.75) between them. What's the recommended way to do this in ObjectScript? I’ve seen examples using $ZDATETIME, but I’m not sure if that’s the cleanest approach.

Hello Community
I was running code in the terminal and attempted to interrupt its execution. During that process, I encountered an application error with a log entry dated 01/06/1841, the date seems unusual.

Error <INTERRUPT>ErrST+6^%ETN occurred within %ETN itself. Detailed information cannot be logged.

Hi,

I tried to create a client for Google Cloud Storage using a private endpoint.

like this:

S client=##class(%Net.Cloud.Storage.Client).%New()

S sc=client.CreateClient("",2,credentialsFile,"",.out,privateEndpoint)

But privateEndpoint seems not to be used when trying to send blob from a file:

D sc.UploadBlobFromFile(bucketname,blobname,filename)

We can see at the firewall that the client still tries to use the public endpoint for GCS.

Users of the %UnitTest framework can now get test coverage information inside VS Code by combining the latest release (v2.0.0) of the InterSystems Testing Manager extension with @Timothy Leavitt's impressive Test Coverage Tool.

Working on wrapping an IRIS Cache ObjectScript method that runs for a few seconds. Trying to get UI updates to show BEFORE the method runs in an async/await function. But it seems to be running synchronously rather than asynchronously . So my question is does IRIS/ObjectScript CSP pages support futures with JavaScript or does it run all synchronously.

Test Objectives

InterSystems has been testing Vector Search since it was announced as an “experimental feature” in IRIS 2024.1. The first test cycle was aimed at identifying algorithmic inefficiencies and performance constraints during the Development/QD cycle. The next test cycle used simple vector searches for single threaded performance analysis to model reliable, scalable and performant behaviour at production database scale in IRIS, and performed a series of comparative tests of key IRIS vector search features against PostgreSQL/pgvector. The current test cycle models the expected behaviour of real-world customer deployments using complex queries that span multiple indices (vector and non-vector) and run in up to 1000 concurrent threads. These tests will be run against IRIS, PostgreSQL/pgvector, and ElasticSearch

Hi InterSystems Community! I'm Sidd one of the interns at the Singapore office and I recently had the chance to develop to develop a driver to connect IRIS to Metabase to help some of the Sales Engineers here. I was encouraged to share it here so that if any others have a similar issue they can use the driver and as well as get some feedback on potential improvements. The full GitHub repo with the quick start step, brief overview and the driver building process can be found here.
