If you're migrating from Oracle to InterSystems IRIS—like many of my customers—you may run into Oracle-specific SQL patterns that need translation.

Take this example:

SELECT (TO_DATE('2023-05-12','YYYY-MM-DD') - LEVEL + 1) AS gap_date
FROM dual
CONNECT BY LEVEL <= (TO_DATE('2023-05-12','YYYY-MM-DD') - TO_DATE('2023-05-02','YYYY-MM-DD') + 1);

In Oracle:

Hello,

I have created this script that does lot of writes to a single global. DB write performance is much slower than expected (compared to another similar systems).

Hi Guys,

I'm looking for a Zen component that allow me to populate a list of items and the ability to multiselect, similar to checklist?

I've thought of using MultiSelectSet component but don't know how can I populate it like to a query or resultset?

a short sample code would be helpful.

Thanks

I have created a New Database/Namespace within our TEST environment on both the Primary and Backup of the mirror. When I go to create the database/namespace on the DR node I am getting "Cannot open file '/ensemble/TEST/iris.cpf_...." while the cpf file that it references does not exist. Anyone have any clue to why this might be happening?

Hi,

Can anyone please tell me how to append a string using a update query.

For eg : "Hello" is the string . I need to append the string world and it needs to be "Hello world".

Thanks

Jude

Introduction

MonLBL is a tool for analyzing the performance of ObjectScript code execution line by line. codemonitor.MonLBL is a wrapper based on the %Monitor.System.LineByLine package from InterSystems IRIS, designed to collect precise metrics on the execution of routines, classes, or CSP pages.

The wrapper and all examples presented in this article are available in the following GitHub repository: iris-monlbl-example

I have a Task that I am trying to write the output to a file. How do I check for if the Output File has been included in the Task Schedule, so I can direct my output of my class to that output file?

Thanks

Let's suppose two different routines use one and the same chunk of code. From the object-oriented POV, a good decision is to have this chunk of code in a separate class and have both routines call it. However, whenever you call code outside of the routine as opposed to calling code in the same routine, some execution speed is lost. For reports churning through millions of transactions this lost speed might be noticeable. Any advice how to optimize specifically speed?

How would you go about creating an SQL Stored Procedure that would result in the same output as "IN LIKE"?
For example...

Hello,

I have a class with a "Unique" index (pxfactidIndex) on a %Numeric property (pxfactid) (partially-edit code snippet below):

Join our next in-person Developer Meetup in Cambridge to explore the latest trends, tools, and features for innovating on data. This time we will dive into Building and Evaluating Agentic Generative Retrieval Systems.

Talk 1
Agentic Retrieval: Techniques beyond Vector Search
Speaker: Suprateem Banerjee, Sales Engineer - AI Specialist

Talk 2
Setting up testing frameworks to quantitatively measure improvements in agentic systems
This talk with cover how open source libraries such as langfuse and deepeval can be leveraged to see how improvements to prompts, llm models and tools change an agent / RAG system's performance. We will briefly cover how these systems work before delving into how they can be combined together.

Introduction

Hello! In this article, I will be discussing database degrade, a type of data integrity issue one can face when using IRIS. First, I will be going over a review of the structure of IRIS databases. I'll then discuss how database degrade can manifest and common causes of degrade issues. I'll then conclude with general tips we give our customers about how to prevent or prepare for database degrade issues.

Is a layer before the internal HTTP of Caché/IRIS, such as a Reverse Proxy or API Gateway, a good option?

Example: I have an API using %CSP.REST, and I am using the internal port for development. But for production and approval, I put a reverse proxy using NGINX. Is this recommended? Is it an alternative?
