    HealthShare Patient Unmerge Ooopses

    Anyone who has ever had an ADT merge message come into the system that in other EHRs and applications had an "undo" that cannot be easily done inside of healthshare. From review and digging inside of healthshare - most of the data a user would nee...

    Database Cache (Global Buffers) needs to be optimized

    IRIS for health version 2023 sets Database Cache (Global Buffers) to 25% of physical memory by default, which is not secure and can be quite large if a server group uses shared memory. At the same time, this setting is very important, if a more ap...

    Why use storage for an index that has never been used?

    If an index has never been used (or not for a long time), is it really necessary to use hard drive storage for the index? After a sufficiently long time has passed, it seems like it would be possible to purge storage of index data. The index would...

    Store table tuning statistics with globals, not routines

    Currently, table tuning data is part of a class definition. Many of us are splitting routines and globals into different databases to keep the data and the code separate. This causes a problem because we have many situations where we want the same...

    New Session for Resend
