Hi Community,

In this article I compared the features of the main leaders in the ODBMS gartner quadrant - 2019. See the list sorted by number of existent features.

Hi community,

How Can I get a list fo the classes from a package and for each item of the list the XData content?

Hi Community,

The Mockable.io (https://www.mockable.io/) is an online service to deploy REST API or SOAP services in seconds. This is useful to test the consumption of an API or SOAP service in your production or objectscript class without having to implement a real service, including https option.

It's very simple procedure, see:

The InterSystems IRIS has two major paths to a digital service: API/Web Service into Interoperability module and multimodel Database/Analytics. Each of them has your security configuration.

To do API security you apply an OAuth or JWT plug-in to the API endpoint. So in the Admin Portal, API producer and consumers get the keys to authenticate the API and consume it. The Admin Portal allows you configure RBAC policies too.

The InterSystems IRIS has a very nice container class to allows you have your Dashboards as classes source code. It is %DeepSee.UserLibrary.Container.

With this class is possible group all your dashboard and pivot table definitions.

This is useful to automatically create your dashboards when you build your docker project and other automation scenarios.

See:

Web Crawling is a technique used to extract root and related content (HTML, Videos, Images, etc.) from websites to your local disk. This is allows you apply NLP to analyze the content and get important insights. This article detail how to do web crawling and NLP.

To do web crawling you can choose a tool in Java or Python. In my case I'm using Crawler4J. (https://github.com/yasserg/crawler4j).

Crawler4j is an open source web crawler for Java which provides a simple interface for crawling the Web. Using it, you can setup a multi-threaded web crawler in few minutes.

I compiled some data about past InterSystems DC constest. Some statistics:

• 64 applications (17% of all current apps into OEX - 377 apps in december/2020)
• 08 contests
• 29 developers

See the summary:

Hi community, I used website-analyzer - an app that uses InterSystems NLP and Crawler4J to extract all website content and do NLP on it. I limited to 200 pages and discovered this:

Top 10 Concepts - business and content topics in the InterSystems site:

Other frequency concepts, see the focus in the iris speed, scale and data value:

Top 10 Concept Dominance - business relations in the InterSystems site. See the InterSystems slogans ("first data platform", "intersystems data platform" and "healthcare data platform")

Today, is important analyze the content into portals and websites to get informed, analyze the concorrents, analyze trends, the richness and scope of content of websites. To do this, you can alocate people to read thousand of pages and spend much money or use a crawler to extract website content and execute NLP on it. You will get all necessary insights to analyze and make precise decisions in a few minutes.

Gartner defines web crawler as: "A piece of software (also called a spider) designed to follow hyperlinks to their completion and to return to previously visited Internet addresses".

Is it possible see the execution plan of a SQL sentence in IRIS?

Like this:

explain plan for
select  e.ename,r.rname
from    employees  e
join    roles       r on (r.id = e.role_id)
join    departments d on (d.id = e.dept_id)
where   e.staffno <= 10
and     d.dname in ('Department Name 1','Department Name 2');

That returns this:

Is IRIS DTL, Adapter, Production or ObjectScript class have a function to transform an arbitrary XML to JSON?

Hi,

Do you have a guide or tutorial with recommendations to configure IRIS to a production environment? The better strategies, recommended disk, memory and processing settings, etc?

In Oracle database, the synonym is an alternative name for objects such as tables, views, sequences, stored procedures, and other database objects.

You generally use synonyms when you are granting access to an object from another schema and you don't want the users to have to worry about knowing which schema owns the object.

Is IRIS SQL sintax has something like this: (oracle sintax)

CREATE PUBLIC SYNONYM suppliers
FOR app.suppliers;

Languages like Java and C++ allows to develop a multi-threaded program with two or more parts that can run concurrently and each part can handle a different task at the same time making optimal use of the available resources specially when your computer has multiple CPUs. Is it possible In ObjectScript? If yes, Where I can get a good sample or application?

Is IRIS supports imap to integrate with email server?

I have an application with maps that render and edit geographic data in a some layers using KML - geo data represented into XML file with layers, polygnons, points and metadata associated with it. Some maps are in GeoJSON too. 

Is it DocDB the better option?

Hi Community,

I use an excellent service to collect time programming. Is the WakaTime: https://wakatime.com/.

This service integrate with main IDE tools, including VSCode and collect time spent by project, language, IDE and code stats at general. See my last 7 days:

These information help me to organize and balance my targets by project.

To use Waka signup the service: https://wakatime.com/signup and into your VSCode, into extensions search waka, see:

Restart your VSCode and now input your api key, you can get your api key into https://wakatime.com/settings/account.

Hi community!

Is it possible generate HTML documentation to my project ObjectScript classes (.cls)?

In Java we use Javadoc to do it. Javadoc get class comments and java metadata information and when I execute javadoc -d doc src\*, I get whole html documentation to my classes. Has IRIS something like javadoc? Is it documatic? If yes, how can I use it?

According IDC, 80% of all data produced are NoSQL. See:

There are digital documents, scanned documents, online and offline texts, blob content into SQL, images, videos and audio. Imagine a Corporate Analytics initiative without all these data to analyze and support decisions?

In all the world, many projects are using techonologies to transform these NoSQL data into textual content, to allows analyze it. See:

According to IDC, more than 80% of information it is NoSQL, especially text into documents. When the digital services or applications not process all this information, the business lose. To face this challenge, it is possible use OCR technology. OCR uses machine learning and/or trained image patterns to transform image pixels into text. This is important, because many documents are scanned into images inside PDF, or many documents contains images with text inside. So OCR are an important step to get all possible data from a document.

PEX is a new InterSystems IRIS feature to allows extends IRIS with existent features from Java or .NET.

It is possible create interoperability inbound and outbound adapters, business services (integrate from external to internal) and operations (integrate internal to external).

To create a PEX component it is necessary import .NET (InterSystems.EnsLib.PEX.*) or Java (com.intersystems.enslib.pex.*) packages and extends or implements the properly class.

In this article I will use my OCR Service. It has a PEX business Operation, see the code:

The InterSystems IRIS can be extended using Java or .NET components and its frameworks inside Object Script source code.

The productions are components developed with InterSystems IRIS Interoperability module to promote integrations between systems, data sources/targets, web services, API, message channels, etc. Productions are composed by:

1) Business services to get/ingest/get data events or requests;

2) Business operations to send or persist data to repositories, systems, API, web services, etc; and

3) BPL - BPEL flows to orchestrate, mediate, compose and route data from business services to business operations.

Hi community? Do you have tips for IRIS certification? Resources to study, types of questions more common, anything to help me in my study path. Thanks.

If you want get a file from a multipart API or html form request use ReadMIMEMessage, see my sample.

I created a Custom Business Service to receive a multipart message with a file and I need to save only the file, not all message. How Can I extract only the file from the pInput to save in a File? This is my code:

How Can I do to receive and read an uploaded file from a HTML form or REST API formdata into a Custom EnsLib.HTTP.InboundAdapter?

PEX Java classes are not in the maven public repository, so I need to download pex jar file. Where is PEX jar file can be found to download?

I liked the transactional analytic DBMS and Advanced Analytics segmentation concept.
The 1.0 version IRIS plug-in to VSCode is amazing. The partnership between community and InterSystems was very positive to it. However a low code option would do very well for IRIS in the near future.
The Dynamic Gateways/Native API positions IRIS as the most advanced data platform for the main open languages in the market, but it is necessary use the public package managers from these languages, specially maven public repository.
The API Manager is a good option but it is not available to the community
