#InterSystems IRIS

When I installed the IRIS 2021.2 Community Edition, I found some Globals, which seem to be set for the Intersystems Ensemble and DeepSee products. For me that is an annoying design error in those products and only confusing my developers.

As I do not want to use these, I tried to delete them, because they interfere in the list of globals mixed with our own Globals.

But for several of the EnsEdi Globals I get an error message telling me, they can't be deleted, because they are wrong.

Is there a way to get rid of them? Or do I have to wait for a new IRIS version?

@Robert Cemper is the most active and widely read member of the community (Best Seller!). So nothing better than learning InterSystems technologies from over 100 articles by him. I curated the articles, selecting the best ones by subject:

It is becoming more and more common to see beautiful badges in the README.MD file with useful information about the current project in the repositories of GitHub, GitLab and others.
For instance:

Hey Developers,

It's time to announce the winners of the InterSystems Datasets contest! Are you ready?

A storm of applause goes to these developers and their applications:

Hi all,

I am testing asynchronous Bulk Data retrieve with a large EHR vendor. When I retrieve the bulk data, they are returning ndjson (CONTENT-TYPE of "application/fhir+ndjson; charset=utf-8"). If I attempt to process that content using JSON functions - I get

ERROR #5035: General exception Name 'Parsing error' Code '3' Data ''

For example, the following generates the error

s objArray={}.%FromJSON(quickStreamOut)

The error makes sense in that ndjson is not a valid json format (I assume at least).

For some years I missed being able to offer, to everybody interested in ObjectScript, a tutorial more or less complete, to start with ObjectScript. Something that could help more and make things easier to those new developers that come to our technology... something intermediate, halfway between the common "Hello World!", that doesn't really get you further, and the "Advanced Training", that is unaffordable because of lack of time,etc.

If there were something truly helpful not only as an introduction to the ecosystem, but as a starting point, as a boost, to really start to walk into ObjectScript and move forward by yourself... wouldn't that be awesome?

Intersystems IRIS supports SMB protocol to connect and read files from remote folders (//foldername)?

Hello everyone,

I am having a challenge with the IRIS community version in Docker with wsl2. Host machine is Win 11 and the IRIS/Ubuntu image is Ubuntu-20.04 from running 'wsl -l -v.

I am not able to reach the WebPortal in IRIS nor the Super User port. docker ps -a = containers.intersystems.com/intersystems/iris-community:2021.1.0.215.3   "/tini -- /iris-main"   3 weeks ago   Up 26 hours (healthy)   0.0.0.0:1972->1972/tcp, 2188/tcp, 53773/tcp, 0.0.0.0:52773->52773/tcp, 54773/tcp   iris

Hi! For the Opendataset contest I've build a docker container app stack that use InterSystems IRIS & Openflights Dataset in a container and second container with Apache Zeppelin. You can found details here: https://github.com/andreas5588/openflights_demo

With that you can query the Opendflights Dataset from Apache Zepplin with zero configuration. The containers are on hub.docker so you can use it very easily.

Hi everyone,

I want to talk about our project and use the dataset theme for this contest.

Our intention never was to be a data curator, especially because sometimes my precious data means a lot for me, but not for the rest of the world.

We want to go a step further and empower the user to find the perfect dataset for their needs.

Our project is a bridge between the data science community and the developer's community using InterSystems IRIS to achieve this mission.

Hey community! How are you doing?

I hope to find everyone well, and a happy 2022 to all of you!

Over the years, I've been working on a lot of different projects, and I've been able to find a lot of interesting data.

But, most of the time, the dataset that I used to work with was the customer data. When I started to join the contest in the past couple of years, I began to look for specific web datasets.

I've curated a few data by myself, but I was thinking, "This dataset is enough to help others?"

Application to import 12 Datasets along with 43 tables dynamically by using  LOAD DATA command which loads data from a source into an IRIS SQL table. 
List of Datasets

I'd like to share an example on how the new Embedded Python feature in IRIS helped me in my daily routines.

While I’m participating in the iris-kaggle-socrata-generator project with Henrique Dias, I got to unzip datasets from Kaggle in order to import them.
