Has anyone here been to the FHIR Developer Days in Amsterdam before? If so, how did you find it?

Anyone planning to go this year?

Been to both events and very much enjoyed them. If you want to know FHIR in depth it’s excellent, and it’s a great community.

A tad expensive but really enjoyed it. Lectures very good aimed at system suppliers and app developers.
Possibly going again this year (depending on content).

I’d recommend staying at the De Hallen https://www.hoteldehallen.com/en Excellent food bar area next door and easy walk into town or to Ringholm offices.

Thanks @riksmithies / @mayfield.g.kev - good to get some feedback from people who’ve been. Sounds like it’s worth a punt to me :slight_smile:

Java has two sets of libraries for HL7. For HL7v2 you have http://hl7api.sourceforge.net/ and for HL7 FHIR you have http://hapifhir.io/ Both are called HAPI (and come from the same university hospital org).

Mapping between standards or versions is typically done via integration engine. For V2 (and FHIR) you have Mirth which is open source but support is commercial. This uses HAPI but configuration is javascript (I don’t think you can use java but could be mistaken).

Outside of health orchestration/integration engines you have Mule, Apache Camel, Spring Integration and Apache Service Mix (which uses Camel). Apache Camel comes with a HAPI v2 component and it’s quite easy to use the HAPI FHIR libs - I’d probably look at this. Camel can implement most of the patterns in the Enterprise Integration Architecture Patterns (http://www.enterpriseintegrationpatterns.com/index.html) plus it can be combined with ServiceMix components such as Apache ActiveMQ and hawt.io
