Hello. Currently, we are developing using Cache 2018 version.
Our team is working on improving an existing legacy program so that it can also be used on the web.

Before asking my question, here is the development environment.

In the previous article, we talked about ODBC and connecting from C#. And now, let's look at JDBC and Java. The InterSystems JDBC driver is the recommended, high-performance way to integrate your Java applications.

Here is a step-by-step guide to getting your Java application connected to an IRIS instance using the JDBC driver.

Step 1: Obtain and Include the InterSystems IRIS JDBC Driver

Unlike ODBC drivers, which are often installed system-wide, JDBC drivers are typically distributed as JAR files that must be included in your Java project's classpath.

If InterSystems IRIS is installed on your local machine or another you have access to, you can find the file in install-dir/dev/java/lib/ or similar, where install-dir is the installation directory for the instance. Conversely, you can download the jar file from Driver packages page.

Or as suggested by @Dmitry Maslennikov in the comments, use the maven central repository for Maven:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.intersystems</groupId>
    <artifactId>intersystems-jdbc</artifactId>
    <version>3.10.5</version>
</dependency>

or for Gradle:

implementation("com.intersystems:intersystems-jdbc:3.10.5")

Include the jar file in Project:

• Maven/Gradle: If you use a build tool, the simplest method is to add the InterSystems JDBC driver as a dependency in your pom.xml or build.gradle file. This automatically downloads and manages the JAR.
• Manual: For simple projects, you must place the JAR file in a project directory (e.g., /lib) and explicitly add it to your classpath when compiling and running.

Hello, dear colleagues.

I need to connect to a remote JavaGateway from an Ensemble service.

I am trying to use the EnsLib.JavaGateway.Service with a remote host where the JVM is running.

I can successfully ping the remote Java Gateway from EnsLib.JavaGateway.Service, and Ensemble reports that the service status is OK.

There are no network issues, and all necessary ports are accessible.

When we need to integrate Caché/IRIS with other relational databases, one common question arises: “How do I set up the JDBC connection?”.
The official documentation doesn’t always provide a straightforward step-by-step guide, which can be frustrating, especially for beginners.

Technical Documentation — Quarkus IRIS Monitor System

1. Purpose and Scope

This module enables integration between Quarkus-based Java applications and InterSystems IRIS’s native performance monitoring capabilities.
It allows a developer to annotate methods with @PerfmonReport, which triggers IRIS’s ^PERFMON routines automatically around method execution, generating performance reports without manual intervention.

Hello Community,

I am facing a JDBC connection issue after migrating from Caché 2016 to Caché 2018.1. When I attempt to connect using the following connection settings:

CACHE_DATASOURCE_URL=jdbc:Cache://localhost:1972/TEST

CACHE_DB_USERNAME=test

CACHE_DB_PASSWORD=test

I consistently receive the following error:

[Cache JDBC] Communication link failure: Access Denied

This configuration worked perfectly with Caché 2016. I have verified the following:

Hi everyone. Long time no see. Again, I would like to share what I am studying recently Create Foreign Tables Using SQL via JDBC.

Since I am learning about the IRIS BI at the same time, so I started with this Sample-BI docker environment
