A bug has been identified in InterSystems IRIS 2024.3.0 on AIX instances that affects the parsing of JSON Unicode strings.

InterSystems Announces General Availability of InterSystems IRIS, InterSystems IRIS for Health, and HealthShare Health Connect 2025.1

The 2025.1 release of InterSystems IRIS® data platform, InterSystems IRIS^® for Health^TM, and HealthShare^® Health Connect is now Generally Available (GA). This is an Extended Maintenance (EM) release.

As of InterSystems IRIS® data platform version 2025.1, InterSystems is officially deprecating MultiValue and including it in the Deprecated and Discontinued Features list. While InterSystems will continue to support existing customers using MultiValue, it is not recommended for new applications.

What This Means for You:

• Continued Support: Support for MultiValue will still be available through the Worldwide Response Center (WRC) on a "best effort" basis, as is provided for releases older than our Minimum Supported Versions.

February 19, 2025 – Alert: SQL Queries Returning Wrong Results

InterSystems has corrected two issues that can cause a small number of SQL queries to return incorrect results. In addition, InterSystems has corrected an inconsistency in date/time datatype handling that may lead to different, unexpected – yet correct – results for existing applications that rely on the earlier, inconsistent behavior.

The latest extended maintenance releases of InterSystems IRIS, InterSystems IRIS for Health, and HealthShare Health Connect are now available.

✅ 2024.1.3

Release 2024.1.3 provides bug fixes for any of the previous 2024.1.x releases, including the fix for the following alert recently issued - Alert: Invalid Data Introduced to Database and Journal files with Specific.

InterSystems has corrected a defect that causes invalid database and journal records to be introduced when using a specific $LIST syntax. The likelihood of encountering this defect is very low but the operational impacts can be significant.
