For the question in the Title, the AI Chat gave a response of:

The ‘Current Users’ value displayed by the $System.License.ShowSummary() method represents
real-time license usage tracked in shared memory on the local system.

We are trying to reconcile which user/process are associated with the counts that are returned.

Does anyone know how to get the detail of 'license usage tracked in shared memory on the local system.'?

Thanks you for your time.

I want to extract data from IRIS (Health Share Provider Directory) and write the data out to a file that I can use within an external system. Using EnsLib.SQL.Service.GenericService do I need to supply Credentials if I am querying IRIS locally? I have always used JDBC to connect externally when creating Services and Operations to read/write SQL data from external Databases, but never internally. Normally I would just use sql or code to pull the data within a Process or DTC. But in this case, I want the Service to drive the workflow, and query the data from Local Tables

We use Apache Flink for complex event processing. Is there a way to integrate IRIS (as a source/sink) with Flink’s streaming API, possibly using the IRIS Native API or JDBC?

The previous article introduced IrisOASTestGen, a tool designed to generate REST API test code for InterSystems IRIS based on OpenAPI 2.0 specifications. It demonstrated how to scaffold test cases using the default templates bundled with OpenAPI Generator.

This follow-up focuses on the next natural step: customizing the generated test code.
By extending the code generation logic with Mustache templates, it becomes possible to express richer semantics, implement CRUD-aware tests, and create more meaningful test suites.

I’m using recursive CTEs for hierarchical data, but the planner seems to produce inefficient plans. Can I influence or extend the query optimizer behavior in IRIS?

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?

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?

Sometimes it is more convenient, more efficient, and more secure, to limit FHIR Searches per pre-defined "Lists" of Resources.

Since v2025.1 we support several List-related features in our FHIR Server.

I will highlight these here, and provide some samples.
