#Business Service

Productions often need to receive REST requests.

Here's how to do that.

1. Create proxy Service:

/// Empty BS we would use to send Produciton requests
Class production.ProxyService Extends Ens.BusinessService
{
}

2. Add it to production as RESTService (or any other name).

3. Write your rest broker (docs, more docs)

4. In your handler method create the message and call target BP/BO like this

In this article, I will show how you can easily containerize  .Net/Java Gateways.

For our example, we will develop an Integration with Apache Kafka.

And to interoperate with Java/.Net code we will use PEX .

Architecture

Our solution will run completely in docker and look like this:

Java Gateway

First of all, let's develop Java Operation to send messages into Kafka. The code can be written in your IDE of choice and it can look like this.

Hi guys,

How can we remove a business host from a running production?

I've read and tested how to add it to a production, while when I try to remove it from the production with the following codes:

I have a requirement to update the Ensemble Host Settings Programmatically.  Mainly the "AlertOnError,QueueCountAlert,QueueWaitAlert,InactivityTimeout" settings.
I used Ens_Config.Item (persistent) class to get the settings (list object) and then update it. But for some of the Business Host's, I dont see the above settings in the table, but present in Settings of that particular Host in Ensemble Management Portal. So my logic is not working.

Why is that and how to write a code to update the above settings for all the hosts ?

Please let me know the way to achieve my requirement.

My code.

This article is a continuation of this post.

In the previous article, we discussed the development of business processes, which are part of the components required for system integration and serve as a production coordinator.

This article will discuss creating a business service, which is the information input window for production.

• Production
• Message
• Components
  • Business services
  • Business processes（previous post）
  • Business operation

And finally, the last component of “Let's Use Interoperability!”

Hello all,

I have a Business Service which retrieves data via a SQL adapter and writes the data in text file. My production is doing the job, but instead of the Business Operation output being one file, I am getting many files, with 1 , 2 or 3 rows only. 

Any help is appreciated. 

Thank you 

We are getting more and more request wondering if we could send/receive data via HTTPS to the outside world from within our Hospital Network. As you can imagine our Ensemble/Cache productions are not exposed to the DMZ or has access outside of the network. We only communicate with external vendors through a VPN, so communicating not using a VPN is rather new to us.

Currently there is a project to get rid of using Proxy, and instead of through a Load Balancer that can use rules to filter out traffic, which adds another layer of complexity.

In the Inbound SQL Adapter settings, is it possible to specify more than 1 field as the Key Field Name? 

Because of the way the Query is being index in Ensemble by the Key Field Name, sometimes transactions get missed and I would like to see if we can add an additional key to the mix to ensure all the transactions are picked up. In this case the InterfaceTrigger is an ID that is auto generated by the table, and I would like to use that as well to ensure we don't miss transactions, and it does not throw any warning messages when it executes the Delete Query.

Thanks

We have a custom FTP Service , and custom FTP adapter . Customization is just to find a duplicate file and for giving specific dynamic file spec pattern.
While running and polling for files, we are getting this error. Could you please help ? What's the issue and how to resolve it ?
ERROR <Ens>ErrFTPListFailed: FTP: Failed List for <FileName> (msg='Cache error in 'readResponse': <READ>zreadResponse+4^%Net.FtpSession.1',code=426)    

Good day, Developer Community!
 

As you know we have Company listings on Open Exchange. It lets publishing Open Exchange applications on behalf of companies so one can check which solutions in certain industries are being provided by companies.

Sometimes people are also looking for qualitative and proven implementation or consulting services on InterSystems products: IRIS, Caché, Ensemble, or HealthShare.

And recently we introduced a new option on Open Exchange to list the services your company provides related to InterSystems technology: implementation, consulting etc.

How to do that?

Hi,

I've a Service utilising the Adapter EnsLib.SQL.InboundAdapter, which uses a Credentials item set with the details of a local SQL account. This currently works, however, we're looking to use the credentials of an AD domain account.

The domain account is a member of an AD security group, which has the required permissions on the source SQL database. I've checked that access is possible with this account via SQL studio.

I've tested setting the Credential username as domain\username and username@FQDN, but neither create a successful connection.

Hello,

I like to know if we need to have the message in a file to process a Record Map?

I am working with Interoperability Production that processes files /messages using Record Maps. My team was asked to redesign the solution for deployment in AWS. We use containers. We had problems with having multiple containers processing files from the same directory. We are considering Amazon Simple Queue Service instead of having files on a shared file system.

Has anybody migrated a Record Map to a Schema Definition to validate a message as a Virtual Document as I have seen with X12 messages?

What is the best way to create an HL7 message from JSON input file?

We have JSON file available with data required for building the HL7 message . I am trying to use a standard file/FTP Business service to pick up the file and convert the input %FileCharacterStream into a dynamic Object and use the stand JSON features to read /process the data and build the HL7 message. 

Is there any other better way to do this? or any standard built-in functionality available in HealthShare? 

Thanks you for your help

Mary

Does anyone know about any documentation or sample code to create SFTP Business service in HealthShare? 

Thank you for your help.

We have 3 env. using different ports schemes Is there a way to create a rule if msg comes on ports starting 22 then route it to devoperation, if it starts with 33 then route to testoperation, if its 44 route to stageoperation?

My team is working on redesigning an Interoperability solution that currently runs on a HealthShare server that is part of a mirror. Most of the messages are delimited records processed using Complex Record Mapping. We were told to utilize cloud services available in AWS, use containers, autoscaling…

HI

 I want to known How to measure the time spent entire bussiness process 

Two stage:

1. Business service to bussiness operator

2. bussiness operator to outside (like http, tcp) include request and response time.

Is has any method to do this?

I have a file passthrough service that should check for new new files every 10 minutes, process them and then wait again for 10 minutes, even if there are new files waiting in the source directory. The "CallInterval" value feels like a wrong tool for this need since it would keep the service "locked" for a maximun of 10 minutes before releasin resources.  Is there a better way than CallInterval to schedule the service to poll for files every 10 minutes?

I'm not sure how to go about building this scenario:

1. I FTP PUT a file "data.txt" to external directory
2. 3rd party processes that file
3. 3rd party creates a log file "errors.txt" into the same directory
4. My integration build should now 
   1. notice that there is a "errors.txt" file
   2. FTP GET that log file, delete it from server and process it 
   3. but we should also delete the "data.txt" from the server as it is "used" and should no longer be there. It is essential that "data.txt" must only be deleted if there is an "errors.txt" file and we have downloaded it

Getting routingrules compiling error message. same code works fine for IRIS For Health

You might have encountered this and not known how to prevent it, or perhaps not even noticed it...

Hi

can I have two business services listening on same port ?

so let’s say

service a port 51000

service b port 51000

this way we don’t need to open port every time we add new service 

Hello All,

I have been using IRIS / Ensemble for over a decade and appreciate lot of it's functionalities and features, however besides having a UI of 80's era (which doesn't bother me), what I believe where IRIS is lacking is lack of out of the box connectors (services/operations).
If we look at IRIS's competitors for eg Mulesoft, Talend, Boomi they all have hundreds of pre-built connectors for major applications like Salesforce, SAP etc and cloud services like Azure, AWS etc to store and retrieve information and data.

Just to give an idea here is a link of Dell Boomi connectors

Messages between Business Hosts in Interoperability Production often contain object properties.

Do you define and pass them as object properties or do you define and pass them as Integers with objects conversion where required?

Why?

We have a vendor that every couple of days will just stop transmitting messages, but still hold the TCP/IP connection open. No matter how many times we troubleshoot and talk with them, they don't seem to think its an issue with system.  Normally if I just restart the service it will get the data flowing again.

I know ideal is for them to fix the issue, but in the meantime I have setup an Inactivity time out alert.  I was wondering with the correct filtering if there was a way to say if the Inactivity Alert is triggered during the business day, to have the Alert trigger a restart of the service?

Hi, what’s the syntax for picking up low/high cases?

I have tried

*.zip;*.ZIP

But, it’s not working any pointers much appreciated.

We have a bunch of CSV files of a few different types, which contain patient and medication data, among other things, which we need to load into Healthshare, so the information can be compiled together and then viewed from the Clinical Viewer/reports made on the data as well.

Hello,

We wonder how could we send an HL7 message to a service to test it.

For example, we have a service, at localhost port 19111

We have tried to use SoapUI to send a REST POST request as follows:

At the event log we see the following trace:

Then, if we try with POSTMAN as follows:

We observe:

Would it be the only way to test services, pointing a TCP HL7 operation to the service, and send messages using the Test Action?

We mean that we are testing manually sending messages from the operation "ProbarADTs" to "Servicios.TCP.GeneralHospitalADT":

How could we do it from SoapUI or Postman?

Hello

How to set up a schedule of service in Ensemble Production to run Business Process from Monday to Friday?

Hello,

I want to deploy Iris Interoperability Production in multiple containers . The production has File Services that process files from EFS location. All the files being processed by multiple containers are in the same directory. The standard Adapter class does not have Check Complete option to lock a file so that other containers File Services looking in the same file path cannot process the same file.

I updated the Inbound File Adapter class to offer another Check Complete option LOCK that will lock the file until it is processed and archived.
