Develop a light version for InterSystems IRIS. It is a fact that IRIS, today, includes several improvements and new functionalities, however, like "all" software evolution, it also requires heavier hardware resources.
Not all applications need all the features offered, and some of these applications, if they don't use all the features, could work with more basic versions of hardware.
The consequence of this would be light solutions that are easily used by smaller niches, with less investment and thus avoiding a greater search for better components, which fatally require more factories, greater energy consumption (not all factories use clean energy) and products.
With this, we could have a robust software, but more accessible.
Thank you for submitting the idea. The status has been changed to "Planned or In Progress".
This is not a commitment; plans are subject to change. Stay tuned!
Arm64 ie BeagleboneAI64 would be canditate egecomputing without developing similar code in different languages or frameworks
Adding Modules (functionality) not in the Base Product should be dynamic, for instance, by a class keyword "import %ISC.XML".
Including the Module should be resolved during compilation and an automatic update facility.
IPM could be a candidate to handle this.
The mechanism and the repository for including modules should be open end well-documented.
This idea is the 🥇 1st place winner of the 2nd InterSystems Idea-A-Thon
