Build something that matters.

Envision the Future. The future will belong to the innovators. To people who find new ways to harness the volume, velocity, and variety of data generated by the modern world. Powerful, smart applications will transform our lives, our businesses, and our society. But applications are only as powerful as the platform on which they are based. InterSystems IRIS Data Platform™ makes it faster and easier to build real-time, data-rich applications that enable innovation and transformation. It mirrors our design philosophy that software should be interoperable, reliable, intuitive, and scalable....

InterSystems IRIS Data Platform

Scalable Data Management Today’s data is big data. Or huge data. Or impossibly gargantuan data. Modern applications need to handle the nearly unimaginable volume, velocity, and variety that the modern world generates. InterSystems IRIS Data Platform is built around high-performance data management technology. It provides seamless high-speed SQL access to multiple data models. It enables real-time analytics on transactional data. And InterSystems IRIS is massively scalable, both vertically and horizontally. Unified, Multi-Model Database Within InterSystems IRIS, data can be modeled and...

A CASE FOR SCALABILITY Of course, every industry can benefit from scalable applications, but the field with the most demanding scalability requirements may be financial services. Consider a large investment firm or bank. They must collect trade information from multiple exchanges in real time, analyze trends, instantly assess the risk of their clients’ positions, and enable their traders to take appropriate actions. In addition, they must save terabytes of data in order to comply with a wide range of regulations. It is not unusual for an investment firm to maintain multiple data stores —...

Flexible Interoperability In today’s highly connected world, no solution can stand alone. At the very least, they must be capable of bi-directionally sharing data with the world around them. Ideally, a modern application can leverage data and functionality from disparate sources to provide new ways of improving the lives of people across an entire region or industry. InterSystems IRIS includes a full-fledged interoperability engine. It provides a library of extensible and customizable adapters for commonly used applications, technologies, and protocols. It has graphical editors for data...

A CASE FOR INTEROPERABILITY When you think of fields that might benefit the most from flexible interoperability, healthcare instantly springs to mind. Just consider how many healthcare professionals may need to know all or part of your medical history in order to provide you with the best possible care. (And consider all the times you’ve sat down with a clipboard to give it to them.) Consider all the different kinds of medical data, both structured and unstructured, that may be part of your personal history. Because of its flexible interoperability, InterSystems IRIS is ideal for building...

Open Analytics The term “analytics” covers a lot of ground. It can refer to anything from real-time dashboards to data mining to machine learning and predictive analytics. Your important applications may benefit from using specialized, best-of-breed tools for different analytic functions. You need a data platform that can support them all. In addition to built-in analytics capabilities for structured and unstructured data, InterSystems IRIS comes with a connector to the Apache Spark analytics framework. Thus, InterSystems IRIS is an open analytics platform that enables you to use whatever...

A CASE FOR OPEN ANALYTICS The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to networks of devices or machines that produce a continuous stream of data — much of which must be analyzed in real time. Increasingly, many organizations are leveraging the Internet of Things to improve operations and outcomes. For example, in manufacturing, sensors may continuously measure key parameters, see how they are trending, and compare results with historical data. Manufacturers can predict when a process is about to result in products that do not meet specifications and take corrective actions before problems occur....

Containers Enable Easy Cloud Deployment and Agile Application Development A container is a lightweight wrapper around a software solution and everything needed to run it. InterSystems IRIS leverages containers in two important ways: Cloud Deployment InterSystems IRIS is designed for “cloud-first” deployment. It relies on containers to simplify the provisioning and deployment of your important applications in a public and/or private cloud. Cloud-based resources can be created (or destroyed) quickly and easily, as demand dictates. DevOps Many organizations are adopting a DevOps approach...
