I need to reproduce a table (in fact a view, but let's start with a simple table 😊) in IRIS as the currently used in Oracle.

I need to expose/project one column to JDBC as CLOB, in my class I have the corresponding property defined as:

Property GlobStream As %Stream.GlobalCharacter;

In JDBC this column is projected as LONGVARCHAR, this is compliant with the documentation but I need to project it as CLOB.

In addition, I'm no expert in JDBC but wit seems that LONGVARCHAR has a Maximum Length 32,700 characters in JDBC, not quite enough for an arbitrary stream.

How I Vibecoded a Backend (and Frontend) on InterSystems IRIS

I wanted to try vibecoding a real backend + frontend setup on InterSystems IRIS, ideally using something realistic rather than a toy example. The goal was simple: take an existing, well-known persistent package in IRIS and quickly build a usable UI and API around it — letting AI handle as much of the boilerplate as possible. Here is the result of the experiments.
