#Interoperability

8

In healthcare, interoperability is the ability of different information technology systems and software applications to communicate, exchange data, and use the information that has been exchanged.

InterSystems IRIS is a powerful data platform, especially when it comes to healthcare (IRIS for Health, HealthShare), finance, and real-time applications. While it comes with a rich set of inbound/outbound adapters (Kafka, REST, HL7, JDBC, FTP, etc.), one common question is:

How do we integrate InterSystems IRIS with Google Cloud Pub/Sub?

Hi,

I'm new to ZEN . I want to create a Zen web page to upload a local file & save it to server and download the same file to other sever.

This needs to be implemented without unix access (using only IRIS code only).

I gave it a try with below basic code (just to upload file) , the page is loading with file uploader but after uploading a local txt file, the pFile object is not getting created.

$IsObject (pFile) is returning 0.

Please assist!

Thanks in advance!

Class MyApp.BasicFileMgr Extends %ZEN.Component.page {

What are best practices for JSON transformation in IRIS interoperability? This is for a non-healthcare use case, so any tools we happen to have around FHIR might not be available. The motivating use case is trimming down a verbose and needlessly complex REST API response to feed to an LLM - trying to reduce token usage and maybe get better results from less noisy data.

Interoperability on Python (IoP) is a proof-of-concept project designed to showcase the power of the InterSystems IRIS Interoperability Framework when combined with a Python-first approach.IoP leverages Embedded Python (a feature of InterSystems IRIS) to enable developers to write interoperability components in Python, which can seamlessly integrate with the robust IRIS platform. This guide has been crafted for beginners and provides a comprehensive introduction to IoP, its setup, and practical steps to create your first interoperability component. By the end of this article, you will get a clear understanding of how to use IoP to build scalable, Python-based interoperability solutions.

I would like to know which are the best practices of using Streams in Interoperability messages.

I have always use %Stream.GlobalCharacter properties to hold a JSON, or a base64 document, when creating messages. This is fine and I can see the content in Visual Trace without doing anything, so I can check what is happening and resolve issues if I have, or reprocess messages if something went wrong, because I have the content.

Been testing out the Production Validator toolkit, just to see what we can/not do with it. Seems really interesting and there seem to be some use cases for it that can really streamline some upgrades (or at least parts of upgrades) but I was running into so many hurdles with the documentation. I am curious if anyone else has used it.

In this section, we will explore how to use Python as the primary language in IRIS, allowing you to write your application logic in Python while still leveraging the power of IRIS.

Sending emails is a common requirement in integration scenarios — whether for client reminders, automatic reports, or transaction confirmations. Static messages quickly become hard to maintain and personalize. This is where the templated_email module comes in, combining InterSystems IRIS Interoperability with the power of Jinja2 templates.

Why Jinja2 for Emails

Jinja2 is a popular templating engine from the Python ecosystem that enables fully dynamic content generation. It supports:

If you work with Productions, highlighting connections between Business Hosts is a very convenient feature, allowing developers to get a visual representation of a data flow.

This feature works by default with all system Business Hosts. If a user writes their own Business Services, Processes, or Operations, they must implement the OnGetConnections method for this functionality to work with their custom Business Hosts (or use Ens.DataType.ConfigName properties for connections).
That said, the SMP shows only the first layer of connections of the selected Business Host. Sometimes, we need to get connections of connections recursively to build a complete data flow graph. Or we might need this connection information to check which downstream systems might be affected by a change upstream.

2025.1 Modernizing Interoperability User Experience

The Interoperability user interface now includes modernized user experiences for the DTL Editor and Production Configuration applications that are available for opt-in in all interoperability products. You can switch between the modernized and standard views. All other Interoperability screens remain in the Standard user interface. Please note that changes are limited to these two applications and we identify below the functionality that is currently available.

#InterSystems Demo Games entry

⏯️ The Ultimate 3D Industrial Simulation powered by a Game Engine with InterSystems IRIS

In this demo, InterSystems IRIS Interoperability comes alive in an amazing, game-like user experience based on our Ultimate Control Tower demo. We visualize machines in a virtual 3D factory building, interacting with InterSystems IRIS in real time—displaying current statuses and sensor data, simulating machine outages and predictive maintenance scenarios, and triggering workflow tasks and actions in InterSystems IRIS. By using a mobile app on a tablet—and even a VR headset for a fully immersive experience—we unleash the power of InterSystems IRIS.

Hello InterSystems Community,

I'm working with HealthShare, and need to create a user account for our development environment with specific access requirements. This user will need only to:

Review messaging and environments
See production and namespaces
NOT modify anything (read-only access)

After reviewing the documentation on user roles and rights management, I can see the default roles available in our system include:

Ensemble/Interoperability Roles:

Hello again,

We are still seeking feedback on our two new HealthShare Unified Care Record certification exam designs. This is your opportunity to tell us what knowledge, skills, and abilities are important for Certified HealthShare Unified Care Record Specialists.

The feedback surveys are open until July 20th, 2025. All participants are eligible to receive 7000 Global Masters points for each survey they complete!

Hello, good morning, thank you so much for reading this question. ☺️🙂👍

We are developing a code to get information about our Production's items: services, processes and operations.

We know we can get various configurations of a given item: Category, Port, Enabled...

But we wonder how we could get the date time of the last mesage (most recent) received in an item.

To give a code snippet a small section of the code we have developed (and tested), it looks like:

Is anyone using DICOM Interoperability in IRIS for Health configured in Mirror?

I'm asking because I'm not sure how to handle where the DICOM messages are stored.

For some reason DICOM use the filesystem to store raw messages, the directory used can be configured in the StorageLocation production settings, obviously this is a big issue if/when a mirror failover occur.

Unfortunately in IRIS it's not possible to change the DICOM storage from file stream to global stream.

Has anyone came across this issue?

IRIS/Ensemble as an ETL

IRIS and Ensemble are designed to act as an ESB/EAI. This mean they are build to process lots of small messages.

But some times, in real life we have to use them as ETL. The down side is not that they can't do so, but it can take a long time to process millions of row at once.

To improve performance, I have created a new SQLOutboundAdaptor who only works with JDBC.

BatchSqlOutboundAdapter

Extend EnsLib.SQL.OutboundAdapter to add batch batch and fetch support on JDBC connection.

IRIS supports CCDA and FHIR transformations out-of-the-box, yet the ability to access and view those features requires considerable setup time and product knowledge. The IRIS Interop DevTools application was designed to bridge that gap, allowing implementers to immediately jump in and view the built-in transformation capabilities of the product.

In addition to the IRIS XML, XPath, and CCDA Transformation environment, the Interop DevTools package now provides:

Hi Community,

In this article, I will introduce my application iris-fhir-bridge

IRIS-FHIR-Bridge is a robust interoperability engine built on InterSystems IRIS for Health, designed to transform healthcare data across multiple formats into FHIR and vice versa. It leverages the InterSystems FHIR Object Model (HS.FHIRModel.R4.*) to enable smooth data standardization and exchange across modern and legacy healthcare systems.
