Quiet Sunday morning coding with coffee… Making progress... Create an OMOP CDM either from the command line or as part of a wider application…
A screenshot of a terminal emulator showing the results of running ‘iort’ from the command line, and building a SQLite database. It is trying to demonstrate the simplicity of building relational data models according to community standards.

Likewise, it reinforces the need to provide tooling to make sense of, and map, and transform healthcare data in standard ways. This isn’t about applications, but data.

New open-source project announcement…. Interoperable Outcomes Research Tools (iort) Still an early stage, but a straightforward command line tool, and library, to create the OMOP CDM (common data model) SQL schema in a number of databases, including SQLite.

The OMOP CDM creates a vendor-neutral database schema, with the idea of aggregating and normalising multiple datasets into something readily accessible by analytics tooling. It’s a straightforward idea, but very compelling for analytics and research particularly for outcome data.

Running locally on your own machines is a superpower, but there’s nothing stopping you deploying to multiple servers in the cloud and load-balancing either. You can update-in-place with new releases and any local extensions you wish, but I prefer immutable deployed services.

Generative testing - generating complex synthetic data according to a set of specifications - makes it far easier to understand the potential impact of changes outside of one’s control. For context, @SnomedCT are consulting on whether to increase the maximum description length.
