Installation and Upgrade

InterSystems IRIS Deployment

There are different ways to deploy InterSystems IRIS: in containers, on Kubernetes, using installation kits, and so on. For more details on each approach, see Deployment.

Adding the Supply Chain Framework

After deploying an InterSystems IRIS server, use the following steps:

1. Create a new namespace reserved for use by Supply Chain Orchestrator. This documentation uses the namespace name SC, but you can use a different name.

   Note:

   Make sure that the namespace is interoperability-enabled and analytics-enabled. The latter option enables you to use the Business Intelligence Analyzer so that you can explore the cubes.

2. Start the Terminal application and complete the rest of the steps in the Terminal.

   Or on Unix®, where the Terminal application is not available, start the ObjectScript shell.

3. Change to the newly created namespace.

4. Check to see if IPM is installed. To do so, enter the command zpm. If IPM is not installed, this command results in an error. If IPM is installed, the Terminal prompt then looks like this:

   zpm:SC>
   

   Where the part after the colon is the namespace in which you are working.

5. If InterSystems Package Manager (IPM) is not installed, install it as follows:

    set r = ##class(%Net.HttpRequest).%New()
    set r.Server="pm.community.intersystems.com",
    set r.SSLConfiguration="ISC.FeatureTracker.SSL.Config" 
    do r.Get("/packages/zpm/latest/installer"),
    do $system.OBJ.LoadStream(r.HttpResponse.Data,"c") 
   

   
   Tip:

   For convenience, the following single line of code represents all the preceding lines.

   set r = ##class(%Net.HttpRequest).%New(),r.Server="pm.community.intersystems.com",r.SSLConfiguration="ISC.FeatureTracker.SSL.Config" d r.Get("/packages/zpm/latest/installer"),$system.OBJ.LoadStream(r.HttpResponse.Data,"c") 
   

   

   Then start IPM. To do so, enter the command zpm

6. If you do not yet have an IPM token, login to Pm.InterSystems.comOpens in a new tab using your InterSystems account credentials and obtain a token.

7. At the IPM prompt, use the following command to log in to the IPM repository:

   repo -n registry -r -url https://pm.intersystems.com/ -token YOUR_IPM_TOKEN
   

   

   Where YOUR_IPM_TOKEN is the IPM token from the previous step.

8. Still at the IPM prompt, install InterSystems Supply Chain Framework. To install the latest framework:

   install isc-supply-chain
   

   

   Or to install a specific version of the framework (in this example version 1.0.0):

   install isc-supply-chain 1.0.0
   

   

9. After the installation is complete, enter q to exit the IPM prompt.

Application Deployment

Any application code can be deployed using DevOps tools. Application code may include (but not limited to):

• Extensions to the supply chain data model

• Custom analytics cube design

• Business processes

• Any DTL implementations

• Custom APIs

• Others
