Hello everyone,

I would like to ask whether it is possible to run InterSystems API manager (IAM) on OpenShift. Is there some documentation describing how to do it? I was searching the forum as well as the internet and I have not found much unfortunately.

Any hints would be highly appreciated.

Best regards

Martin Zukal

Hello

I'm using from visual code. My routines are server-side files. If I try to search patterns in files (e.g find all routines containing the string "version=3") , the search runs but didn't find anything. If I do the same search from the management portal, it finds all routines including this pattern with a good performance.

regards Matthias

We want to use IRIS as a backend for a lightweight blockchain or DLT. Can we model blocks using deterministic globals and implement consensus (PBFT, Raft) externally while using IRIS as the ledger?

When writing dynamic SQL queries using embedded SQL, how can I force or ensure that filter conditions are pushed down to the data access layer rather than evaluated in memory?

Hello!

I'm trying to create some foreign tables to a PostgreSQL database. In some cases, columns with certain datatypes cannot be consumed by IRIS and the following error is thrown:

[SQLCODE: <-237>:<Schema import for foreign table did not return column metadata>]

[%msg: <Unkown data type returned by external database>]

For example: serial4 typed ID columns are typical examples. Is it possible, what's the best way of resolving these datatypes, which- seemingly- don't have proper JDBC metadata mappings?

Developing with InterSystems Objects and SQL – In Person September 15-19, 2025

Can the IRIS SQL engine be extended with custom optimization rules (e.g., prioritizing certain indices or join orders)? If not, is there a supported way to influence cost models?

Instead of default storage classes, I want to implement my own SQL storage mapping for a persistent class (e.g., denormalized or sparse matrix structures). How do I define and manage custom storage definitions?

In my previous article, I structured network communications
in these 3 possible layers, and covered the last

• Client <---> Transport
• Server <---> Transport
• Client <---> Server

In fact, you have the most control over the last one.
The IRIS side as a server is yours and under your full control.
Up to now, the Transport layer was assumed to be as passive as a bare wire.
