Overview

One of the great features in InterSystems IRIS is Monitoring InterSystems IRIS using REST API.  This enables every InterSystems HealthShare instance with the ability to use a REST interface to provide statistics about the InterSystems HealthShare instance.  This feature includes information about the InterSystems IRIS instance with many out of the box statistics and metrics.

You also have the ability to create application level statistics and metrics.

Enterprise Monitor is a component of Ensemble and can help organizations monitor multiple productions running on different namespaces within the same instance or namespaces running on multiple instances.

In Ensemble 2016.1 there were changes made to make this utility work with HealthShare environments.

This article will:

• Show how to set up Enterprise Monitor for HealthShare sites
• Show some features of Enterprise Monitor

For this article, I used the following version of HealthShare:

Creating and working with the new SDA extensions for storage of custom data elements

In HSCore 15.01, there is a new way to store custom data elements.  HealthShare now had the ability to use custom extensions on many SDA elements.

This article will:

1. Show how to set up your system to use SDA extensions
2. Create a new SDA extension property
3. Use the new SDA extension property in HL7 transactions
4. Interact with the new data
