This year, the client I work with has started exploring the offerings in Google Cloud Platform (GCP) after investing years into the Microsoft Azure cloud. The opportunity has allowed me to explore a few new technologies that this post will cover and that you will hopefully find interesting.

In short, I was tasked with transforming Pub/Sub to Firestore Database in GCP. The scenario explored in this post takes an FHIR healthcare data feed, extracts telephone and email information, and then stores that in a Firestore database.

Quickly Setup And Use CodeGPT in VS Code

Chris Vaught Articles, Artificial Intelligence, Generative AI & LLMs, Machine Learning 2 Comments

Lately, the buzz about AI has been inescapable among my peers – especially around OpenAI’s GPT-4 and its implementations: Chat GPT, VideoGPT, and DALLยทE. Tools like these are rapidly changing how we interact with and develop on the internet. They are defining our future. Web 5.0 is here, believe it or not, and AI is a big part of that.

Using Open AI’s GPT-4 doesn’t come without some controversy, but the implementation of CodeGPT within VS Code should not cause concern. Time-traveling, unstoppable intelligent robots are not coming after you… at least not just yet.

In this post, I’ll briefly cover why using CodeGPT is helpful, how to use it, and how to set it up. Let’s get started!

Digital Payment System with React and Java

Keyhole Consultants led the design and development of a greenfield React application, providing just-in-time leadership & development to help the bank successfully meet deadlines negatively impacted by COVID-19. Since its deployment to the project end, Keyhole consultants have been entirely responsible for its updates and changes to ensure it accurately solved the client’s needs for a digital payment system.

Under a tight deadline, Keyhole consultants architected and developed the application with a React-based JavaScript front end and Java, Spring services, and API gateway-based backend to efficiently bridge the gap between the front end and back end in a way that promoted the efficient transfer of secure data…

Case Study: Cross-Platform Flutter Mobile App

Guide Diary is a Flutter application that enables documentation of fishing trips. This app records images, trip descriptions, environmental conditions, and any income and expenses associated with the trip, which can be edited afterward. The trip information can be shared on socials or downloaded. Trips can be viewed, sorted, and searched from the main listing page.

As stated, the application is written with Flutter, which allows it to run across multiple platforms from a single codebase with a minimal amount of platform-specific configuration.

Part 4: Creating an FHIR API – Wrapping Things Up

Welcome to the fourth and final installment of Creating an FHIR API with GCP. So far, weโ€™ve covered a lot!

We discussed the differences between Google and Azure, landing on GCP as the best option for FHIR in Part 1. We began our implementation in Part 2, creating both the BigQuery resources and your FHIR repository resources. And finally, in Part 3, we tackled authentication methods and populating data in our FHIR repository.

This time, weโ€™ll wrap everything up with a nice little bow. First, weโ€™ll finish our implementation, and then, Iโ€™ll share the limitation I found – for the sake of transparency. Letโ€™s dive in.
