Overview
This 5-day course teaches programmers how to use the tools and techniques within the InterSystems® development environment. Students develop a database application using object-oriented design, building different types of IRIS classes. They learn how to store and retrieve data using Objects or SQL, and decide which approach is best for different use cases. They write code using ObjectScript, Python, and SQL, with most exercises offering the choice between ObjectScript and Python, and some exercises requiring a specific language.
Programming Languages Note: This course includes several Python and SQL features specific to IRIS but is not a comprehensive Python or SQL language course. It covers ObjectScript in relatively more depth. InterSystems doesn’t offer an ObjectScript-only course; we recommend Introducing ObjectScript and the ObjectScript Tutorial in the documentation.
This course is applicable for users of InterSystems IRIS® data platform and InterSystems Caché®
