Summary

This article provides technical instructions for setting up an International Patient Summary (IPS) node. It details a comprehensive system architecture including a FHIR R4 server, a PostgreSQL database, and multiple gateway services.

Details

This document serves as a Docker Compose setup guide for the backend of an IPS node. Key components include the `hapi-fhir` server supporting FHIR R4 and `hapi-db` (PostgreSQL) for data persistence. The system also incorporates a `bus-gateway` for connecting to a health bus, and an `nginx` reverse proxy for managing external access. Technically, the node requires detailed configuration management across multiple services, including routing rules (e.g., `/bus-gateway/*`) and environment variables. Specific configurations involve OAuth scopes for connections to MPI and Document Registry, as well as setting up JDBC URLs for database connectivity. Security considerations are addressed by providing steps for implementing HTTPS using SSL certificates. This architecture is a standard design pattern for international patient data exchange (IPS) based on the FHIR standard, making it a technical specification useful for building operational environments.
