Curious how #InterSystemsIRIS actually ties together objects, SQL, and globals under the hood? We’ve created a new free hands-on tutorial that lets you see it in action — no installation, no setup, just 5–10 minutes of interactive learning.
You’ll:
✔️ Create objects
✔️ Query them with #SQL
✔️ Inspect how they’re stored in globals
✔️ See how the multi-model architecture really works
It’s designed for developers who are just getting started with IRIS — but we’d love feedback from seasoned pros too.

#FHIR data is powerful… but let’s be honest — reading raw #JSON is not how you want to explore patient data. So what if you could click through patient records like a real application instead?
🧠 That’s exactly what this project delivers:
Visualizing FHIR Patient Data with #InterSystemsIRIS for Health
It gives you:
✔️ A clean UI to browse patients
✔️ Instant access to conditions, medications, labs, and more
✔️ Expandable views down to each data field
✔️ Raw JSON when you actually need it
Even better — it’s fully runnable in Docker and comes preloaded with 115 synthetic patients. No setup hassle.
👉 Read the article:
https://community.intersystems.com/post/visualizing-fhir-patient-data-intersystems-iris-health
👉 Try the app yourself:
https://openexchange.intersystems.com/package/FHIR-Patient-Viewer-2
If you’re working with FHIR, IRIS for Health, or healthcare data in general, this is a great example of how to turn complex data into something usable.
Curious how others are approaching FHIR visualization? This is worth a look.
