Dear Community
We are thrilled to let you all know that Ozone HIS 1.0.0-alpha.12
was released on February 24th
This is the last alpha release of Ozone 1.0.0, in fact in most respects it is already a first beta. That’s because Ozone HIS 1.0.0’s architecture won’t change anymore and its set of features is fixed.
What’s new in 1.0.0-alpha.12
HIS ECOSYSTEM
- Upgrade – OpenMRS 3.2.1
- Upgrade – SENAITE 2.5.0
- Addition – Orthanc 1.12.6
PLATFORM
-
Ozone FOSS expands making key features more accessible to the community:
- Ozone Analytics
is now FOSS.
- Single Sign-On (SSO) is now included in Ozone FOSS.
- Ozone Analytics
-
Ozone’s FHIR Facade abstracts the entire HIS behind a single FHIR API.
- It offers a unified, standards-based interface for improved interoperability and expansion (Open Health Stack apps anyone?)
-
Providing FHIR support for Odoo via the FHIR Facade for
InventoryItem
andChargeItem
resources. -
We added a new ‘bundled Docker’ deployment option.
-
The OpenMRS-SENAITE integration has been refactored and enhanced by leveraging openmrs-eip’s FHIR events. See here for more details.
-
Backup & Restore
– A new, generic service inspired by restic. It leverages Docker Compose labels to specify which volumes to back up (e.g., MySQL, filestore, Postgres), and supports both AWS S3 and local disk storage.
-
Fixed SSO logout functionality for all default demo apps.
DATA FLOWS
-
Basic EMR-PACS
data flows added through the new OpenMRS-Orthanc integration. More details here.
-
Enhanced EMR-ERP flows in Odoo:
- Patient weight is now synchronized with the Odoo quotation.
- Patient date of birth is now synchronized with the Odoo customer.
- Both use cases originated from the Hôpital Sacré-Coeur implementation; see here for more details.
-
Expansion of Ozone’s E2E test suite.
DOCS
Ozone Docs reorganised and expanded further – and there is a lot more
to come between now and the upcoming beta.1.
PRO
- Central Authorization
has now been fully implemented across all default demo apps – OpenMRS, Superset, Odoo, and SENAITE.
- Prometheus Metrics – Each Docker service (e.g., MySQL, Postgres, OpenMRS, and all EIP clients) now exposes metrics that Grafana can consume for real-time monitoring.
