An integrated suite of high-performance (big data) applications for the management and analysis of population-scale genomic data.

OpenCB Summary

By replacing datafiles with databases our software promotes:

  • Scalability; the ability to run queries in real-time across hundreds of thousands of genomes.

  • Accessibility; the ability to analyse from anywhere on the web without needing access to the local filesystem.

  • Integration; the ability to link data together using flexible data models covering reference data, variant data and clinical metadata.

  • Security; the ability to protect data using federated (e.g. SSO) authentication and role-based authorisation schemes.

OpenCB solutions are typically used as:

  • The storage target of secondary analysis pipelines.

  • The data source for tertiary analysis workflows.

Becoming a super hero is a fairly straight forward process:

$ give me super-powers

Super-powers are granted randomly so please submit an issue if you're not happy with yours.

Once you're strong enough, save the world:

hello.sh
# Ain't no code for that yet, sorry
echo 'You got to trust me on this, I saved the world'
