Hi Community,

We’re excited to invite you to take part in shaping the next generation of ObjectScript development tools. We’re working on an AI-powered ObjectScript coding assistant designed specifically for IRIS developers. Not a generic AI adapted for ObjectScript, but a solution built from the ground up to understand ObjectScript idioms, IRIS APIs, interoperability productions, and real-world developer workflows.

To make sure we build something truly useful, we need your input.

This year I will go to the READY 2025 event (https://community.intersystems.com/post/registration-open-intersystems-ready-2025). See my plans:

60% of my topics are covered by developer sessions and the other 40% I will reach using 1:1 meetings, tech exchange and focus groups. I know, it is not possible stay at all sessions, but I will to try 30-40% of sessions. See it:

For 15 over years I have been playing with ways to speed up the way I use InterSystems systems and technology via AutoHotkey scripting. As a power keyboard user (I avoid my mouse when possible) I found it very helpful to set up hotkeys to get to my most frequently accessed systems and research utilities as quickly as possible. While I have used this approach for many years, this is the first time that I am introducing my approach and a customer-facing hotkey script to the D.C. and OEx...

Visual Studio Code releases new updates every month with new features and bug fixes, and the February 2025 release is now available.

There have been enhancements to GitHub Copilot with predictive editing, autonomous task completion, smarter code search, improved terminal and notebook support, and UI and workflow refinements.

Hey Community,

Recently, @Dean Andrews, Head of Developer Relations, sat down with Instruqt to share how InterSystems is transforming developer engagement:

>> Unlocking Hands-On Learning with Instruqt <<

“Instruqt is useful for interactive tutorials where we are sharing specific use cases of our technology with our customers, partners and developers around the world... It's such a powerful way to show our customers and partners how easy InterSystems technology is to use.” - Dean Andrews

Hi Community,

As you may know, this year's Spanish Technical Articles contest will be in May. I am going to make a series of articles to support you in the creation of your articles, giving tips and tricks. Perhaps they will be useful for the contest you have active in this community as well.

As you may know, one of the bonuses or extra points you can receive is to add a video tutorial to your article. You may not even know how to approach this issue, no problem! I'm here to give you some tips that you can apply not only to the creation of these videos, but to any other.

Hi ISC Experts,

I'm in the process of setting up InterSystems IRIS for HealthShare with database mirroring, and I’d appreciate some guidance around how to handle an existing ODBC connection in this new setup.

Hi everyone,

I'm currently testing out IRIS 2024.3 for a new project, and it's been running smooth for the most part. However, I noticed that when running some heavier analytical queries, the memory usage spikes more than I expected, even when result sets aren’t that large.

I’ve gone through the basics (buffer sizes, query plans, etc.), but I’m wondering if there are any new tweaks or recommended settings in 2024.3 specifically for managing memory better during these peak loads.

Anyone else run into something similar or have tips to fine-tune this?

You can learn a lot from a first impression; we want to hear about yours.

As a continuation of our User Insights Interview program (see this post for more details), we’re expanding our scope to include Python developers, particularly those of you who are new to working with InterSystems technology. We’re looking to conduct one-on-one interviews to hear your honest thoughts about getting started: What made sense, what didn’t, and where we could improve.
