Introduction

Database performance has become a critical success factor in a modern application environment. Therefore identifying and optimizing the most resource-intensive SQL queries is essential for guaranteeing a smooth user experience and maintaining application stability.

This article will explore a quick approach to analyzing SQL query execution statistics on an InterSystems IRIS instance to identify areas for optimization within a macro-application.

Rather than focusing on real-time monitoring, we will set up a system that collects and analyzes statistics pre-calculated by IRIS once an hour. This approach, while not enabling instantaneous monitoring, offers an excellent compromise between the wealth of data available and the simplicity of implementation.

We will use Grafana for data visualization and analysis, InfluxDB for time series storage, and Telegraf for metrics collection. These tools, recognized for their power and flexibility, will allow us to obtain a clear and exploitable view.

More specifically, we will detail the configuration of Telegraf to retrieve statistics. We will also set up the integration with InfluxDB for data storage and analysis, and create customized dashboards in Grafana. This will help us quickly identify queries requiring special attention.

To facilitate the orchestration and deployment of these various components, we will employ Docker.

I'm exploring this right now: given a bunch of types defined as Pydantic models, how can I come up with an equivalent %RegisteredObject/%SerialObject and convert to/from (e.g., to support persistence and match validation as much as possible)?

People who know Python better than I do (e.g., your average undergraduate from this decade): is this a stupid idea or a cool idea? Has anyone else done this before?

Hi,

How can I query fields by passing them in variable names, eg. I would like to query columns Book & Author fields from eg. the following :

S =var1="Book", var2="Author"

Select var1,var2 from myTables.Books

I tried @var1 or %var1 and didn't work

Thanks

See the Langchain IRIS Tool in action on YouTube. You can see IRIS metrics, discover classes, generate fake data, and so on. Project using Ollama, IRIS VectorDB, Streamlit and Langchain.

The "Ask Developer Community AI" tool is an excellent resource for studying for the certification. I asked it about each topic that will be covered in the test and the results are below.
Note: I classified each answer by the assertiveness that I consider as good, average and bad.

Note 2: The article has 4 parts, each one for an exam area.

I want to create a scheduler to montor the status of list of backend jobs ( say limit is 10). there going to be job queue. Need to pick a job form job queue when one of the current processing job is finished.
What is the best way to implement this

Hi Community,

Hi Guys,

Not sure what I'm missing here, I'm using to download files that starts with MTC_88 from S3 bucket using AmazonS3 inboundAdapter as below, but I'm not getting anything and I'm sure there thousands of files that starts with MTC_88

and the log is not getting any errors?

JSON Web Token (JWT) Authentication

Hi Everyone,

When batch inserting data into a table via SQL, I can use the %NOCHECK keyword to avoid checking foreign key integrity. This would be appropriate for cases when the inserted data has been verified by some external process.

However, when inserting via objects, I don't see a way to get the same behavior. Are there any workarounds that use objects for this?

Prompt

Firstly, we need to understand what prompt words are and what their functions are.

Prompt Engineering

Hint word engineering is a method specifically designed for optimizing language models.
Its goal is to guide these models to generate more accurate and targeted output text by designing and adjusting the input prompt words.

Now it is possible ask your IRIS server using an AI Chat or compose other agent applications to get:
