go to post Bob Kuszewski · Oct 19, 2022 Hi! Good to hear from you again. IKO doesn't add any annotations (yet!). But the ability to specify annotations is on our backlog
go to post Bob Kuszewski · Oct 14, 2022 There is not. Cache has not been ported to ARM64. IRIS has ARM ODBC drivers if that's an option for your application.
go to post Bob Kuszewski · Oct 13, 2022 IKO adds labels to everything it creates. You can use these labels to create further annotations as you see fit. For example the following adds the annotation myAnnotation: myAnnotatedValue to all of the pods in the irisCluster named sample:kubectl annotate -l intersystems.com/name=sample pods myAnnotation=myAnnotatedValue
go to post Bob Kuszewski · Oct 5, 2022 Parameters aren't available in embedded python. An easy workaround is to create a Property that reflects the parameter or to create an objectscript method to return the parameter. I'm curious about the use case.
go to post Bob Kuszewski · Sep 23, 2022 You can get the current list of containers available via the container registry documentation. As mentioned already, the Docker desktop extension can also visualize what's available.
go to post Bob Kuszewski · Sep 8, 2022 Glad to hear the interest in Python. When you use embedded python, IRIS loads Python into memory in the process (via CPython). The specific version of Python depends on your OS. That's documented here: https://docs.intersystems.com/irisforhealthlatest/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI...Loading Python into the IRIS process does just what you think it does - not a separate process and references in Python to ObjectScript objects are in-memory. So there's no performance difference between using Embedded Python from IRIS or starting with a Python program and `import iris`.
go to post Bob Kuszewski · Aug 2, 2022 The start.sh script just calls docker-compose up. You should be able to do podman-compose up to start SAM. The first time it runs, it needs to download the containers (you can see what they are in the docker-compose.yaml file) if you don't already have them in your local podman cache. During normal runtime, SAM doesn't require access to the internet. That said, I haven't personally tested SAM without internet access. Good luck! Let us know how it goes.
go to post Bob Kuszewski · Jul 26, 2022 Yes, we are aware of the requests and are working on them. This article is largely a summary of container-related conversation we had at Global Summit and there are various tasks happening in the company. I'm sure we'll have more to announce as the various changes are ready. Thanks.
go to post Bob Kuszewski · Jul 15, 2022 It sounds like you're looking for persistent storage, which means you want to use the Durable %SYS feature. Here's the info to get you started: https://docs.intersystems.com/irislatest/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls.... To answer your specific questions: 1. Yes, IRIS works with any StorageClass that your Kubernetes cluster has installed, including any storage class you might have created for EBS or EFS. If you haven't yet tried it, the InterSystems Kubernetes Operator can simplify deployments in Kubernetes. Even if you don't use IKO in production, it's a good way to see how everything should be configured. https://docs.intersystems.com/irislatest/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls... 2. IRIS 2022.1 also includes first-class support for AWS SQS. You can use it in your Productions or use ObjectScript to send messages to it. https://docs.intersystems.com/irislatest/csp/documatic/%25CSP.Documatic....
go to post Bob Kuszewski · Jun 14, 2022 IRIS does not yet support Ubuntu 22.04. You can find the list of supported platforms in the documentation. Would you be able to try on an Ubuntu 20.04 VM instead?
go to post Bob Kuszewski · Jun 6, 2022 containers.intersystems.com/intersystems/irishealth-ml:2022.1.0.209.0 is available on ICR, if that's what you're asking. We didn't list every single container in the announcement because, well, there are a lot of them
go to post Bob Kuszewski · Jun 6, 2022 Community images are published to DockerHub, as is the longstanding practice. Docker is currently semi-retiring their old "store" portion of DockerHub leaving a confusing interface to find our containers. We expect that Docker will clear this up in the next few months. In the meanwhile, you can easily find InterSystems community containers via the InterSystems Organization on DockerHub: https://hub.docker.com/u/intersystems
go to post Bob Kuszewski · Jun 6, 2022 As is our long standing practice, preview releases are taken down once a GA release is available. We currently have the following versions available on IRC: 2019.1.3.722.0, 2020.1.3.521.0, 2021.1.2.338.0, 2021.2.0.651.0, 2022.1.0.209.0
go to post Bob Kuszewski · Jun 3, 2022 Unfortunately, we do not have a workaround for Docker's breaking change included in 2022.1. The instructions in my Docker post should still be followed.
go to post Bob Kuszewski · May 16, 2022 The OpenTelemetry collector should be able to collect metrics from the IRIS metrics API as well as the structured logs from the logdmn. I don't have a working example configuration file to show you yet but I expect to have one by June 20th. As for a completely shameless plug here for my session on Observability in IRIS at Global Summit, I'm planning to cover the pillars of modern observability stacks, how IRIS fits into them. At the moment, I'm still deciding which commercial stack to demo (DataDog, perhaps?). I'll also be covering SAM, recent & future updates, and how it fits into the bigger observability picture
go to post Bob Kuszewski · Apr 20, 2022 In Embedded Python, exceptions flow back-and-forth between ObjectScript and Python as you'd expect. If your Python code raises an exception, but does not handle it, then the exception is passed to the ObjectScript side. And vice-versa. In your example, I'm not sure why you're handling the exception in python and then returning an exception object to the caller. Why not just not catch the exception and let it get passed along to the ObjectScript side?
go to post Bob Kuszewski · Mar 30, 2022 I like to bake the timezone into the container when I build it. That way it'll have the correct timezone no matter where I run it. Here's an example Dockerfile based on the latest IRIS container that sets the container's timezone to Pacific (aka America/Los_Angeles). FROM intersystemsdc/iris-community USER root ENV DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive RUN apt-get update && \ apt-get install -yq tzdata && \ ln -fs /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Los_Angeles /etc/localtime && \ dpkg-reconfigure -f noninteractive tzdata USER irisowner You can then do a docker build . to create the container, docker image ls, and docker run
go to post Bob Kuszewski · Mar 23, 2022 Yes, IKO provided support for a simple IRIS topology where all Compute (ECP clients) nodes are the same, as are all data (shards), and all web gateways.IKO is a tool that simplifies common deployments of IRIS in Kubernetes. It takes your description of your irisCluster and creates the base kubernetes objects needed to support that deployment (a real lifesaver for sharding/mirroring deployments). You can always see what IKO created and use that as inspiration for creating your own YAML to deploy IRIS in your kubernetes environment.
