Thanks Mike for your work on this - it is great seeing more of the application move over to the new UI!!

@sween  - this is really great, thank you!

My team at InterSystems is actually working on a project to move diff-based code changes between environments using GitLab.  My question for you is whether you have a suggestion for a strategy for only importing the changed files in the target environment?  As you know, applications can get large and complex and build-times can get pretty long.  If only a handful of files have changed, reimporting the entire application (or in the case of your example, 3 applications) would cause excess and unnecessary downtime for users.  What we have been doing with CCR around the world at HealthShare and TrakCare sites for over a decade is executing targeted imports which only reload changed code.  Is there a Git-based strategy that you can recommend for building out the foundation of doing something similar?   I.e. isolating the files impacted by the merge and only pulling those in?

Thanks for any thoughts on this.

Thank you very much @Vitaliy Serdtsev !  The Scalar Functions and Streams Doc got me what I needed (along with your example).   Here was my query:

select RecordID, ImportTimeStamp, Name, SUBSTRING(LogHistory,DATALENGTH(LogHistory)-200) As LogTail from MyClass.withStreamProperty where ORDER BY RecordID, ImportTimeStamp

@Stephen Ali - thanks for asking the question (and welcome to the Developer Community!).

Typically detailed questions like this on TrakCare products are worked out directly with InterSystems Support.  Globally we have TrakCare product tuned to regional requirements so it's important to connect with you product specialists from your specific region.  

I suggest you go to https://www.intersystems.com/support-learning/support/ to see how to contact Support and they can help you get this question sorted out.

Thanks Chris!  Interesting article and it got me what I needed  :)  I ended up writing and testing the same thing as Muhammad posted for an answer and it works for Outlook (which is good enough for me for now)

Thanks again!

Just curious - where are you seeing this?  Could you please include a URL?

The InterSystems SSO account is what controls your access to open as well as restricted applications provided by InterSystems to help customers and prospects get stuff done.  If you go to Login.InterSystems.com you can see the various apps available to you (after you sign in).  This would include things like D.C., OEX, Learning, Download, etc for Prospects, and supported customers would also get access to WRC, iService, HS Docs, CCR, etc (depending on what products they have).

Hope that helps - let me know if any additional clarification is needed.

I completely agree with @Timothy Leavitt here.  Besides the speed of the DB, the core value of Caché (now IRIS) for the past 2 decades that I have used it has been the ability to create just about anything I needed within an application without needing to bolt on additional tools, additional layers, additional languages, or additional dependencies.  Directly access business logic on the server from the web page, directly instantiate and work against objects anywhere in your code - there is no 'throwing things over the wall' to the DB guy, or to the microservice guy, you just code what you need in ObjectScript and be done with it.  
To @Robert Cemper 's point below, I really don't think it takes an Artist to be able to write and support this kind of code, just a talented developer with some good OO skills.  I do think you need to be able to find Artists to support the legacy M applications which are still floating around, but it is pretty straight-forward to get the full power of the stack for new applications while avoiding modes of use which would require a "Priest" to be able to interpret it in the future.  
Having recently been involved in another initiative for several months that was not DB-centric development, and having witnessed how much harder it seemed to be and more time intensive to piece together the different disparate technologies at different levels of the stack in order to make a full solution, it reminded me of why I fell in love with Caché in the first place and made me excited to get back to full stack dev in on a single integrated platform :)

Thanks for the heads up @Bren Mochocki!  This is being looked into as we speak.  No eta on when it will be restored as of right now....

@ROBSON SERPA DA ROSA  - welcome to the Community!!

The two options available to you are InterSystems Studio (ships with Caché and is an install-time option) and VS Code with appropriate add-ons.

InterSystems Studio is being phased out (no new dev) - the future is VS Code, so I suggest you start there.

This may be a good place for you to start: https://community.intersystems.com/post/webinar-introduction-vscode-obj…

Hope that helps!!

Great article, thank you!  I hadn't seen the DataOps concept before but it makes a lot of sense.
