External Language Development
As an application developer, InterSystems gives you multiple options. You can
-
Develop using a number of external languages supported by HealthShare® Health Connect. Code written in an external language interacts with the InterSystems IRIS kernel using a driver in an InterSystems IRIS software development kit (SDK).
-
Develop using several embedded languages that are part of the InterSystems IRIS kernel. Code written in an embedded language executes as an InterSystems IRIS process.

External languages and programming tools
Choose from among a wide range of supported languages, APIs, and standards.
Java
.NET
REST and JSON
SOAP/Web Services
InterSystems API Manager (microservices)
Database connectivity
Connect your code to Health Connect databases using several different technologies.
