InterSystems IRIS Data Platform™ version 2018.2 is now available as a preview release. This is the first release in our new quarterly continuous-delivery (CD) release stream. (Check out the announcement about InterSystems’ new release cadence for InterSystems IRIS)
InterSystems is pleased to announce that InterSystems Caché and Ensemble 2018 are now released!
New in these releases are features that improve security and operations, including:
· Key Management Interoperability Protocol (KMIP) support · Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy (VSS) integration · Integrated Windows Authentication support for HTTP · SSH enhancements
Effective immediately InterSystems will no longer support Health Connect on Solaris. Previously released products starting with 2017.1 will also no longer offer this combination. This is in line with InterSystems HealthShare, which is not available on this platform.
As previously announced, 2017.1 on VSI OpenVMS 8.4-1H1 is the final major version of Caché and Ensemble. 2017.1 will not be available for VSI OpenVMS versions beyond 8.4-1H1.
InterSystems IRIS is a complete, unified data platform that makes it faster and easier to build real-time, data-rich applications. It mirrors our design philosophy that software should be interoperable, reliable, intuitive, and scalable.
Stable Releases of the Atelier plugin are now available from the Eclipse Marketplace. Just search for Atelier on the Eclipse website (https://marketplace.eclipse.org) or - even better - in the Eclipse IDE.
This is an convenient way to install this plugin, because you no longer have to enter the URL.
Project related quality assurance efforts have revealed a number of concerns for the current release of 2017.1.0 and 2017.1.1 on all OpenVMS platforms. In certain situations, the impact can be severe.
