Hi all,

I am trying to understand how to work with Analytics but I get the message "Analytics is not enabled in the USER namespace"

How can I enable that for my namespace?

I am currently using iris-community:2023.1.0.185.0.

Thanks in advance!

I built a dashboard to show hourly instrument capacities based on a term list. The term list consists of the TestInstrumentID and the number of tests that instrument can perform in 1 hour. The calculation works correctly and the data is accurate but periodically if you go to check the dashboard the percentages all get changed to 100% across every hour. If you check it later or add an additional site to the filter then the percentages correct themselves. I don't know what's causing this or how to troubleshoot it because it does calculate correctly but is not consistent. 

With InterSystems IRIS 2022.2, we introduced Columnar Storage as a new option for persisting your IRIS SQL tables that can boost your analytical queries by an order of magnitude. The capability is marked as experimental in 2022.2 and 2022.3, but will "graduate" to a fully supported production capability in the upcoming 2023.1 release. 

In our latest episode of Data Points, @Brenna Quirk and I had a conversation with @Benjamin De Boe about the all-new columnar storage feature in InterSystems IRIS. Benjamin tells us a bit about what columnar storage is, why it's important for InterSystems IRIS users running analytical queries, and how you can learn more. Take a listen!

Hi All,

I'm looking to write a 3rd party front end for BI cubes and have been directed towards the REST API here: https://docs.intersystems.com/iris20222/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls…

I've had quick test using postman and can use those fine, the issue I have is that there are some areas of metadata not exposed by the api that are essential to write a front end tool. I can list the cubes and measures using the /INFO/ paths, but that seems to be the limit of what is available.

Hi

I have a pvot table defined. that generates a set of data.   I want. to. execute the pivot table programatically  which I believe involves using %DeepSee.ResultSet.  Does someone have an example showing how to apply filters to the results?

For. example

[DateTime of Filing].[Date].[Date Filed Year] = &[2023]

Thanks

does anyone have an example of using %DeepSee.Utils:%GetDimensionMembers where you want to apply certain filters

For example I have a date dimension that I want to get all of the months level but filtering for only a specific year.

Thanks

⏯ Introduction to Analytics with InterSystems IRIS

IRIS BI

We offer you to embed business intelligence into your applications in order to give your users an opportunity to ask and answer sophisticated questions about their data. Typically, your application will include customizable dashboards that can provide insight into data from Business Intelligence models known as cubes.

In contrast with traditional BI systems that use static data warehouses, Business Intelligence keeps being constantly synchronized with the live transactional data.

We will use DeepSee User Portal as a dashboard builder and DeepSeeWeb - as the display of dashboards.

In our latest episode of Data Points, I had a conversation with @Thomas Dyar about AI Link, which helps bridge the gap between data scientists and business analysts. Our conversation talks about how AI Link fits with IntegratedML and Adaptive Analytics, as well, as what new features are on the horizon for IntegratedML. Take a listen!

The capacity of taking numerous records every second while also facilitating real-time queries simultaneously in real time is called Hybrid Transactional Analytical Processing (HTAP). It is also called Transactional analytics or Transanalytics or Translytics and is a very useful element in scenarios where there is constant flow of real time data coming from IIOT sensors or data on fluctuations in stock market, and supporting the need for querying these data sets in real-time or near real-time.

Purpose

This set of tools (RanRead, RanWrite, and the combined RanIO) is used to generate random read and write events within a database (or pair of databases) to test the IO speed of IRIS running on a specified hardware setup. While Read operations can be measured in the usual Input/Output operations per second (IOPS) since they're direct disk reads, write events are sent to the database and thus their physical writes are managed by IRIS's write daemon.

Results gathered from the IO tests will vary from configuration to configuration based on the IO sub-system. Before running these tests, ensure corresponding operating system and storage level monitoring are configured to capture IO performance metrics for later analysis. The suggested method is by running the System Performance tool that comes bundled within IRIS. Please note that this is an update to a previous release, which can be found here.

I would like to define an advanced filter within my pivot table that allows me to look at diagnosis codes, or at procedure codes - but I do not want to hard code values within the pivot table definition (get the %OR defined).

I would like to be able to allow my dashboard user to chose what specific diagnosis codes or procedure codes they are interested in. So for example one user may want to look for # of patients with cancer dx or patients who have had a radiation procedure.

How can I accomplish this OR feature using dashboard filters?

Today we will talk about InterSystems Reports. This is a BI system that provides you with tools to create static reports and export them to different file formats. We will see how it works using the DC Analytics public analytical sample as an example. In this article, we will examine how to familiarize yourself with the reports available in the repository, how to make a new report based on a ready-made data structure, and how to prepare a data structure from scratch.

To begin with, you need a licensed copy of InterSystems Reports. 

Today we will talk about Adaptive Analytics. This is a system that allows you to receive data from various sources with a relativistic data structure and create OLAP cubes based on this data. This system also provides the ability to filter and aggregate data and has mechanisms to speed up the work of analytical queries.

Let's take a look at the path that data takes from input to output in Adaptive Analytics. We will start by connecting to a data source -  our instance of IRIS. 

I just wrote up a quick sample to help a colleague load data into IRIS from R using RJDBC, and figured it's worth sharing here for future reference.

Ultimately it was pretty simple, aside from IRIS not liking "." in column names; the workaround is to just rename the columns. Someone better at R than me could probably provide some generic approach. 

we have this container code where we want to create more CalcMember properties

<sharedCalcMember FullName="HSAAPATIENT||DEMOGRAPHICS||CITIZENSHIP.NATIONAL.sharedCalcMember" Dimension="Demographics" Name="Citizenship.National" Expression="[Demographics].[H10].[Citizenship].&amp;[USA]" SolveOrder="0" CubeName="HSAAPATIENT" UpperCaseDimension="DEMOGRAPHICS" UpperCaseName="CITIZENSHIP.NATIONAL"></sharedCalcMember>

So we need some syntax help how to use INLIST, NOTINLIST and CASE expressions. Anyone can help what should be the syntax for Expression to handle below 3 situations.

When we are at the starting stage of BI project development, we must remember that it is crucial to select the right tool for its implementation. Today we want to show you how one of the principal functionality of dashboards is implemented in different BI systems. Let's talk about drill down from both points of view: the dashboard development, and the convenience and clarity for the end user. We will touch on the applications of this technology in IRIS BI, Power BI and Tableau.

Machine Learning

One of the most important tasks of dashboards is, on the one hand, to help you perceive data in an aggregated form, and, on the other hand, not to lose the depth of immersion in the data if you need this. One of the tools that help us achieve this result is drill down. It enables us to display several hierarchical levels of data, from aggregated to detailed.Our task is to make an analytical dashboard that will be able to drill down by time periods:  from months to weeks and days in each chart. The stack that we will use for work consists of IRIS as a data storage system, Adaptive Analytics for

Hi guys,

Does rebuilding of Data Quality Manager cubes affect patient index linkage definition data?

What I want to understand is, does DQM have any negative impact on the data each time you rebuild the cubes. 

Additionally, if I make changes to the cube and rebuild it..will this have any impact on the original data?

When we collect temporary data (the number of purchases in the store, the number of comments on the post), it may happen that there is no data for a certain period of time. In this case, this time period (hour, day, month) is not represented in the database, that is, there is not a single row for this period. In other words, there are no rows in the database for this period.

I am receiving Mirroring updates to an IRIS for Health async reporting server and need to pause the mirroring journal processing to periodically quiesce the database to rebuild cubes and custom staging tables.

What API or web service can I use to quiesce the reporting server and then later initiate catch up?

Hi,

I have 3 simple tables:  Encounter, Patient and Immunizations.  Encounter makes  a reference to Patient, and Patient contains a list of Immunization objects.  

I've tried using PowerBI to access IRIS (using ODBC connector, not InterSystems BI connector),  PowerBI reports the error:

Expression.Error: The column 'Patient' of the table wasn't found.
Details:
    Patient

it does this for two of the three tables I need only (Patient and Encounter), but not for Immunization IRIS table.. 

Anyone know why and how to fix  ?

Thanks - Steve
